Step 6: Pour into jars! Make sure you leave a 1/2" at the top so it can expand when frozen! Let stand for 30 minutes!

Now I have a freezer full of yummy jam to enjoy over the next year.  I do love just plain raspberry, BUT since we are in the middle of Kansas they are too expensive to buy.  Maybe someday soon we will plant some berry bushes/plants so I can pick my own again! Here's to wishful thinking!
