Strawberry Jam

And what to do with all the strawberries that we picked. We can't let them go bad and we got more the we can eat at once.
Yes, we tried....

Bulla has a very good idea, we are gonna make jam, strawberry jam!

So I start with cleaning all we need really good....I scrub and scrub, till it is all shiny!

And Bulla cleans the strawberries and cut of the ends. Bulla is very careful with the knife.And then we put all the strawberries in a big pot with a lot of sugar.
It is like we are making strawberry soup.....mmmmm, that might be a good idea for next time.
And now, I pour the jam into the jars that I cleaned. Very carefully cause it is so hot and we don't wanna spill any of the red stuff.
We want to eat it when we like....so that might be a while...that means canning....So we put the jars in the pot with water and boil it....
For a little while....
And then....tada....we made jars with strawberry jam....
Doesn't that look good!
