Jam!

We go grocery shopping on Monday, before we store the new produce in the fridge, we go over what's left in the fridge and trow out all the stuff that's going bad or wasn't used during the week.

This Monday, I noticed a bunch of fruit I never eat, they were too soft to eat fresh, but still not bad enough to throw out, so I decided to make jam.



I chopped 2 soft peaches, 4 aging red plums and one apple, and put them in a pot, squeezed one lime over the fruit and slicked the pill of half of the lime and added that in. 
Then added 2 cups of confectionery sugar left over from a big baking project in may.
Then turn the stove on, mixed everything till the sugar melted and turn the stove to a low temperature, and let it cook for about an hour and a half.
