freelensing + different editing |
I've concluded that my blog is a combination of memories and thoughts, all mashed together in separate posts that show you bits and pieces of my life. This is one of them: jelly making. If you ever stop by our house on the first weekend of June, you'll be sure to find the kitchen exploding with the process of this jelly making. Pots, pans, and trays will be covered with sticky red, spoons and mashers will be dripping on the counter. My grandma is stirring the final product, and my mom is at the sink cleaning the fresh strawberries. And the smells? The house is full of the smell of jelly making, a smell I can't describe, but as soon as it hits you, you know. They're making jelly.
My cousin started a blog! Go check it out and give her some love!
how fun!
