The girls came home the other day with a bowl of chokecherries that they had picked in the mountains. They were so excited about their treasure that they insisted I make some chokecherry jam. So the other day after the stock market took a particularly bad hit. I decided that the perfect stress remedy was to make some chokecherry jam. Guess what? It worked - making something from nature and putting away storage against a rainy day really did help me step back and enjoy the moment. The funny part - with all the berries they picked we only got half a pint of jam. So sorry don't expect any chokecherry jam delivered to your door. And when I said putting away storage for a rainy day - I meant a really short sprinkle!
