Strawberry Season

Those who follow my instagram feed will know that I got a killer deal on strawberries this week at Safeway.  They were $ .99 a pound.  I bought a lot of berries. 


I made 4 batches of jam.


 I made a batch of strawberry pie filling*.  This was a bit more tricky, as I couldn't find a recipe that I was really thrilled with.  I read several, and then made up my own.  It's delicious and canned really well.  It's a keeper for sure.



I only had one minor mishap, which ended up ok in the end, because look how clean my stove is now!

*Not that I make pie, but I will use it for cheesecake topping and pancakes with whipped cream.  Yum!
