I made jam for the first time

My friend Les came over and gave us a whole flat of strawberries.  Les is always doing such nice things for our little family.  The agreement was that whatever I used the strawberries for he would get a portion of them as well.  I thought that was a good deal.  I spent some time on the Internet googling how to make it and all the recipes were the same.  Luckily, they were the same on the package directions as well.  It didn't seem too hard so I thought I'd give it a try.  It turned out great.  I even figured out how to can them too.  That was the part I was mainly worried about.  I left the last bit with Mike since I had somewhere to go.  I had to wait to see if it worked or not.  Mike did a good job!
