My favorite time is around the holidays and I’ve begun my annual holiday binge – an excuse to bake without restraint!  This year I’m also making a mini-cookbook with recipes for the ones I use as gifts.  I intend to have it ready soon and will post each item as I go, but I really liked this picture and didn’t want to wait to put it up.  I was making a mixed berry jam and caught the blueberry just as it popped, bubbling and releasing steam.  More to come soon!
