A basket of grapes to examine in early summer.
Our friend, Leigh Arino de la Rubia just graduated with her doctoral degree early this August. She has been in school for several year. She took some time off before starting back to work full time. During this period she became a "Master Jam and Jelly Maker." She of course calls her culinary delights "Dr. Jam."
Beautiful colors of grape jelly and peach jam.
Breakfast last week with wonderful grape jelly.
We had a good crop of grapes on our arbor draping over our swing. We gave a bucket of these grapes to Leigh and viola a week later Dr. Jam brought us the finished jelly. Now that is what I call a great way to get your sweet treats. Here are some photos of our grapes as they progressed over the summer.
Green Grapes looking forward to a great summer.
