Strawberry Jam

We went to pick strawberries at the beginning of the week and are now the proud owners of 20 jars of jam and I still have some strawberry puree in the freezer that I think I will attempt to make fruit leather out of. I didn't get pictures of the berries or the jam, but I did get a few shots of our "big helper."

He was supposed to be picking up the lids with the little magnet stick because he was banished from stirring because he kept trying to either eat it or dump whatever he could get his hands on into the jam...like salt and pepper for instance, but as you can see somehow the bowl with the lids ended up on his head!
