We're just about getting into the thick of fruit preserving season
down here in the southern hemisphere. I've done a batch of cherries,
and a couple of batches of plum jam. Just for fun, I took plenty of
photos of the second batch in progress, to make an illustrated recipe
for first-timers:

Next time I'll be sure to have either more lemons or some pectin
powder on hand, though! ;-)
