Back when I had raspberry canes, I would freeze the berries on a sheet pan and then transfer to plastic bags - usually in 1 cup increments. When I had accumulated enough and had the time, I made raspberry jelly (a token to my late sister who had dentures). I gave away the jelly to family and friends with the proviso that if they returned the empty jar I would give them another full one. When I went on a trip I always left a jar for my cat sitter and there was always an empty on the counter when I returned. I bet anyone who receives those jars full are delighted! An old Vermonter taught me to never return an empty dish (or jar!) empty. If you left me one of your jars, I would be sure it was returned full. I cannot guarantee it would be jelly, though! Would you take homemade salsa or hummus or granola? Elisabeth
