Blueberry Jelly

My Mom and I made an attempt at blueberry jelly. It was really easy all you have to do is pick or buy the blueberry's.  We picked them. Then you mash them all up and add a little bit of water and let that come to a rolling boil. Then once it boils you strain it so there is no blueberry skins left. Then boil it some more. Put 7 cups of sugar in it stir until smooth and until it boils. Then pour it into jars and there you have it blueberry jelly YUM!! It made 7 little jars of jelly.

HONEY!!

Last Monday we went to get an extractor so we could rob some honey.  We bought the extractor and a few other necessities for robbing the honey.  Then we went home and closed all our garage doors so the bees couldn't come in.  Then brought the extractor into the garage so we would be prepared. This is what the extractor looked like.

We had to spin the honey ourselves. It took about 4 hours to do the honey.  The honey poured out this little spout in the extractor into a bowl. We had to uncap the honey so that when we put it in the extractor the honey would actually come out. Ha ha!

 Once the bowl was full we would get a strainer to get all the comb out.  Here is the finished product.

We got about 24 lbs of honey. We have a 16 ounce jar $10 and a 12 ounce jar $7. Bye!!
