Fridge Friday III (Monday edition): My beloved jams

The central portion of the fridge has a good deal more variety than the other areas. Drinks, yogurt, sauces, pastry in a roll, and, of course, jam. I love jam. I currently have lingonberry, huckleberry, peach, strawberry, orange marmalade, and ginger open. Possibly the best part of my trip was being given several jars of my mother's homemade jam.

As for the rest of the trip, it was better than some but still not as good as initially perceived. My mom proceeded to make a few snippy comments and take various things as personal affronts (much as she has in the past), returning our relationship to its slightly awkward state. Oh well.

I am so bummed I missed you! If only I had been flying out of Sacramento, I could have seen you for about... 10 minutes. Did I ever end up sending you a jar of my peach jam I made this summer? It was my first time jamming and it turned out really well... I think it had to do with the amazing peach season we had this year. I'm glad to hear the weekend was survivable and actually had some nice moments.

Nope, I've yet to receive any of your jam. I think you owe me a jar for this whole SFO mishap.

In any case, I should probably be out this spring for wedding dress stuff. Either that or you need to come down and help pick out bridesmaid dresses.
