Champagne currants (as opposed to black- or red currants) look like perfect pale pink transparent spherical jewels, but they are sour and seedy, even when at their ripest. So, this week, we picked them all and today began the great experiment. My first attempt at making jam.
I added a handful of raspberries, mushed them all together. Bring to a boil, add lots of sugar, cook some more... and my first pot of jam!
Only one pot. But, I'm so proud! Hopefully, it will still be around when my friends from Switzerland come by at the end of the month.
I ma-ade ja-am! I ma-ade ja-am! And it looks beautiful.

You ma-ade jam. Yummy, delicious save some for me.
Is there really champagne in it?
No, not really champagne. It's just the name of the currants - but that is a great idea... hmmm!
