It's almost time again
May. 17th, 2010 04:31 pmWhat time is that? Time to make rose-petal jam. My roses are a little confused this year, though. Normally the Battle Between Lancaster and York is well underway before the prime ingredient rose is ready. But with the warm-snap followed by the cold-snap, everything's a bit off-kilter. I might wind up having to make several small batches, each from individually-ready bushes. I've never made single-rose jam before, though, and I'm worried that it won't be as good.
Still, it must be done, because we're down to one unopened jar left in the pantry from last year's batch. And the roses wait for no one!
