I am grateful for a new year, with a fresh start! The year 2011 brought a lot of experiences in my life that has made me change the way I look at life, and I have truly grown from my challenges and spiritual experiences that I have had. I'm grateful for all of my trials and happy moments! I want to be able to think of ways to be happy EVERY SINGLE DAY! Life is too short to spend it being sad or down. I'm no blogger, so I hope that my desire to do this everyday will continue. I know that if we stay positive, and look up in life, anything negative will become a positive experience! With that said..........Let's Smile!

SMILE #124 Squeezable Strawberry Jelly

I have been awarded mother of the year with my new found "homemade jam" as my kids call it!  


 Okay, for my whole married life, I have been making homemade strawberry jam, because that's what the husband liked, and what he was raised with, and I loved it,.....so that's what we did!  But we have been getting really low in stock, and I didn't want to share with my kids who are eating PB & J sandwiches everyday!  So while grocery shopping this last week, I went to go purchase some store bought jam, for my kids to use, leaving the yummy stuff for the adults!


I found a squeezable jelly, (good old kroger brand) and thought I would try it, since it means one less mess to worry about!  For the past week, my boys have been asking constantly for PB & J sandwiches.  I couldn't figure out, why, but then my oldest said, that my new homemade jam, is the best he's ever tasted, and makes the sandwich "sooooo yummmmy"!

That's why I smile!

How do you like your PB&J sandwich?
