Dandelion Jelly

Yesterday the girls spent the afternoon picking dandelions.  We are making dandelion jelly.  We tried to make it several years ago but it never set up to jelly stage so we had dandelion syrup.  It was very good just not what we were trying to make.  So this year we are trying again.  We followed the recipe found here http://www.simplycanning.com/dandelion-jelly.html

They picked about a gal. of dandelion flowers however this was too many.  Next time we will not pick as much.

The most time consuming part is getting off all the green stuff.

They are such a pretty yellow color.

I have excellent helpers though so no matter what we are doing it goes fast and is lots of fun.  These girls are awesome!

After finishing the dandelions, we enjoyed chicken on our new grill (my birthday gift from my other awesome daughter and son-in-law)

Enjoy your day and God bless.
