While Wearing Heels.

like cantaloupe after all!To be fair, this jam tastes more like a cross between cotton candy and the nectar of the gods, than cantaloupe.

*edit* STOP RIGHT THERE!!!It turns out that even though we may have seen melon jams and jellies canned before, the fruit is actually so low in acid that there isn’t really any safe way to can it and prevent botulism!The sugar that is normally added to jams and jellies isn’t quite enough to make up for the lack of acidity and no conclusive testing has been done to really know what’s safe.

So freezing is the way to go!.This jam is really yummy on a croissant, or toast in the morning, but it’s really amazing as an appetizer on crackers with a bit of cream cheese or goat’s cheese!.

This would also be really great over ice cream or mixed into greek yogurt, but the very best part of it is that it probably only took my about 2 minutes total working time to make this impressive jam!

It would definitely be a great thing to make a big batch of to give as gifts or bring as a snack to potlucks later on in the year.And maybe I’m not doing what all the “normal” people are doing all the time.

For this, I think I can get over it!Happy Memorial Day weekend to all my American friends!In Canada, we had our holiday last weekend so it’s now (un)officially Summer here.

We’ve been spending soooo much time out in the garden and I wanted to give a little Summer love to the inside of our house too.. Just a little bit though.I’m still banning myself from decorating any unrenovated spaces (which is all of them, pretty much) because I make myself completely crazy over it and it never works out quite right.
