Mixed Berry Jam!

Adam and I just finished making our first batch of homemade mixed berry jam with berries picked right from the Gunflint Trail!  A mix of blueberry, blackberry, strawberry and raspberry were the sweet pickings from the summer.  We weren't expecting blackberries to show up when we went out to pick blueberries, but they were a nice surprising addition.  I do have to say it is pretty tasty, so here's to hoping it will last longer than a few days.
