Pre-Baby Hot Pepper Raspberry Jam

Dear Miss Eleanor,

Before you were born, we had a nice long pre-baby weekend.

We made big breakfasts, ate doughnuts, went to farmer's market, and planted bulbs. 

The day before you were born, I looked like this:

And I made this jam with the last of the fall fruit:

Hot Pepper Raspberry Jam

 4 c. raspberries

1 large red bell pepper

4 jalapeños

8 c. sugar

Put all your fruit and crushed berries in a pot with a heavy bottom.

 Bring to a boil.

 Add all your sugar at once.

 Return to a boil for one solid minute.

 Ladle into hot jars and process for 10 minutes.

Someday, baby girl, I'll let you try this stuff.  It's great with soft cheese and crackers.
