Louisiana Strawberry time

 Its Strawberry time in Louisiana 

My bunny card is holding a juicy strawberry . Just in time for Strawberry season here. Colored in pencils and finished with cute red and white paper. 

Strawberry Jam without pectin 

• 16 oz strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped
• 3/4 cup of sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• In a heavy bottom saucepan, mix strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
• Stir over med-low heat until the sugar is dissolved.
• Increase heat to med-high and bring mixture to a rolling boil.
• Stir frequently, mashing the strawberries as you stir, and continue to boil until the jam is thickened and bubbles completely cover the surface of the jam. (This process takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Time can vary based on your pot, the ripeness of the strawberries, heat, your stove, etc.; see the tips in the FAQ section to help judge when your jam is done.)
• Transfer the jam to a jar and let it cool to room temperature.
• Seal jars and store in refrigerator for about 10 days (or freeze)
