One of Charlene's new crafts is Jello Jigglers! She loved punching out flowers into her Jello.
We also had made freezer jam for the first time. Charlene got to help smash up all the raspberries.
The hardest part about making things from scratch is you find out how much sugar, corn starch or even vegetable oil there is in things. Which makes it harder to eat after making it. Joshua LOVES the jam....while I have yet to try it after realizing how much sugar there was in it. I am sure it is good though. :)
Agreed!!! My MIL makes amazing homemade jam...I mean, sooooooo good! But, I helped her make it once and the sugar content is a super turn-off now. Blimey!
ReplyDeleteStill, in small amounts it's super yummy!
