Well, we decided there were too many wild cherries yet. So we picked the rest and today I enjoyed the holiday by making 4 batches of wild cherry pancake syrup and 4 batches of wild cherry jelly. Dad Coady is coming for supper of dogs and buns, chips and potato salad Dad Troyer style and baked beans.
The wind is blowing like mad and the trees are bowing halfway to the ground with it! The dog always freaks out with the wind howling like this.
In case you ever have wild cherries to pick the recipe is 3 1/2 cups juice to 5 cups sugar and 1 pkg of pectin. To make the syrup just omit the pectin.
Now I'm out of jars, so guess I will be buying many more for the bumper crop of grapes and plums to come.
Hope your 4th is fun and you get fireworks to watch. None for us, too much fire danger.
