Jelly Belly

Jelly jelly jelly jelly. Three more batches of it today, making about 15 jars of jelly in various fairly large sizes. And that hasn't even used up all of the juice, and has hardly touched the stock of ripe apples still available on Fr. Joseph's tree. And today he begged me to pick the pear tree, too.

My mother-in-law tells me pear-ginger jam is excellent. Oh noooo! Save me from the jelly!

By now, I'm not exactly sick of crab apple jelly, but I have licked enough bowls to be able to move on to something else for a while. But it's a great jelly.
