Blueberry Thyme Preserves - Poet in the Pantry

Becoming a parent makes you question everything you’ve always known and done. Are you using the right type of laundry detergent? Is your car safe enough?

strawberry white wine vinegar jam

The rain has been such an emotional drain lately. Gray, dreary days spent locked up inside avoiding torrential downpours. I hope this will not be our new normal.

A part of this summer’s experiments in making our own–including growing our container garden–includes making the most of what we have. So I’ve been sucking it up in the heat and trying my hand at jam-making. Yes, it’s a cruel joke … [Read more…]

Can I Do It? Yes, I Can!

I don’t know why I choose 80+ degree days to run experiments involving leaving the stove on for extended lengths of time, but I do. I’m crazy like that. Yesterday was one of them. Ever since we planted the container garden this year, I had been toying with the idea of canning. For those of … [Read more…]
