Well I've been stock piling wild stuff for weeks in the fridge and freezer for a jelly canning frenzy... I've got it down to a multitasking/multi-batching science. I did 4 varieties of rose jelly today: rose jelly, cranberry rose jelly, honeysuckle rose jelly and lavender rose jelly. All of the rose was from petals... I still have some steeped juice left, after I get more jars I'm going to try steeping some black currant tea and combining them. The little man's favorite was the cranberry rose, and mine is the honeysuckle rose! I'm already keeping an eye on the hips waiting from them to ripen. Our berry bushes are starting to give fruit... I've got about half a cup of different raspberry varieties stocked up in the freezer... not letting one go to the birds or ants!
