Sour Cherry Jam

I saw a picture of it and now I just have to have it.

Sour Cherry Jam is about the yummiest thing you can imagine. Try it on fresh homemade bread or even better, on toast. It just can't be beat.

My grandma used to freeze the fresh cherries she brought home. Then when it was a hot summer day, she would get them out and let us pop one into our mouth. As it cooled us off and warmed up in our mouths, we would get that delightful cold cherry juice taste. Once completely thawed we would carefully bite into it; it was soft like a soft candy and so delicious. Carefully we would tease out the seed and spit it out, savoring the cherry for as long as humanly possible before finally giving in and chewing it up and swallowing it.

Then, of course, we would go back to see if she would give us another...

Cherries are so healthy and nutritious. To top it off, they're also delicious!
