Rhubarb-Plum Jam


 Good evening! How are you on such a lovely evening?
Tonight I was feeling ambitious and made up a fresh batch of rhubarb-plum jam. Yummy eating is ahead! 
The rhubarb has been ripe for a bit, so it was high time I got around to making jam. The older rhubarb root stock is quite a huge hearty plant with good sturdy stems and leaves. The newer plant is quite small in comparison and has gone to seed! 
For this batch I used the two cups of rhubarb from my garden and four cups of plums I had in my pantry. 
 The resulting jam made my kitchen smell like heaven while it was processing! 
 Home canned goodies are heaven in a jar!
