Taking advantage of late summers harvest

Picked a bushel of apples today and put up apple sauce. Tomorrow apple pie, blackberry jam and cajeta!
Took advantage of the Pacific Northwests abundant wild blackberries and will be putting up some blackberry jam tomorrow.

If you haven't tried cajeta it is like caramel but instead of caramelized sugar it is caramelized milk with only a little sugar. Oh SO YUMMY!! Not hard to make just takes a bit because of the stirring. When you have dairy goats you have to do something with all the milk. So this is a delicious treat and will go great with the apple pie and ice cream tomorrow!
