Strawberry Jelly

This past weekend we had a mini enrichment and made strawberry jelly! In the morning Jamie, Seychelle, and Jenny picked fresh strawberries at Washington farms and then they were brought back to the Institute where Jenny (the jelly expert), Natalie, Katy, Amber, and Andrea made the jelly. While making the jelly Jenny also taught us how to make cat head biscuits. So after we made the strawberries we begged Jenny to let us open a jar of jelly so we could eat some with the biscuits. Thanks to Jenny and Sarah Glazier for teaching us how to make such a yummy treat!

"Jamie, aren't you supposed to be picking the strawberries?" :)
