"Don't you wish you were my Friend?"

"Don't you wish you were my Friend?" My Dad used to say that when he had a treat or something very good that he wanted to share with you. I had forgotten that 'saying' until I made this jam. I thought I would like to share it with someone, any ideas who?

This isn't any ordinary jam, it is Strawberry and Raspberry mixed together. It is freezer jam. I found some in the freezer my Mother made about 8 years ago. It was sooooo good, actually, it was better than good.

SPRING FLOWERS ???

I tried planting a few (900) flowers. Most of them are my Mother's old flower seeds, some from the 1950's. I am planting them to see if the seed is still good. Some are flowers I would like to plant in about 6 weeks. I don't know if they will grow, I will let you know. I am growing them without lights, and without heat. I am hoping for the best.
