It is possible to make jam from dreams. Just add fruit and sugar. -Stanislaw Jerzy Lec

Sign-off

IMG_6771Bless me blog world, for I have sinned. It’s been nine months since my last post. My confession goes as follows: a 26-pound creature made of chubbiness has redirected my life. I know tons of moms blog and that’s cool, but this mom just couldn’t blog and mommerjize and also work (write). Blogging used to be a way for me to kill time in between writing gigs, but now that I have NO FREE TIME (in between paid writing gigs I take care of my baby), so blogging has gone by the wayside. This little foray has been fun, and I do continue to can, of course (just remade that plum-apricot jam from two years ago – yum!), but I simply don’t have the time or energy to be bloggin’ about it. So, voila. C’est tout. I’ll let this site kick around a little while longer, but soon the pantry shall disappear. To all the jar heads: thanks for reading and commenting, keep cannin’, stay golden.

    NOOOOOOoooooooo … I’m sorry to hear that this is the end. I may not have ever attempted to *make* any of the delectable spreadables you described, but I sure enjoyed reading about ‘em. May the internet preserve (geddit?) your jamtastic puns for eternity x

    How adorable is that chubby little excuse for not blogging! Ha, ha. I think it’s wonderful, though I’ll miss you. See my latest post, because it’s sort of on the same topic. Take care of the canning in Montreal for us!
