I just love to try new things in the kitchen -- especially in the summer. I grow fresh herbs and I'm trying little by little to take advantage of all the fresh local produce northern Michigan has to offer -- so many lovely fresh fruits up here, but I'm not a big jam person -- what to do? So grateful to everyone willing to share and let me test things out!
