Success!




After allowing the crabapple juice to languish in the 'fridge for a couple of days (I was nervous about trying jelly without adding pectin. All those tests for when it had reached the jelling point..........they had me feeling a bit intimidated.), I finally rolled up my sleeves and did it. And I tried all the tests to make sure that it had indeed reached the jelling point. So far it appears to be a success....
It certainly tastes like a success;)

On Perfection




"Our Lord does not measure our perfection by the number and greatness of the works we do,





but by the manner in which we do them;





and this manner is the love with which and by which we preform them. Actions are more perfect according as the love with which they are preformed is more pure and more perfect."
