Farmers Almanac Dandelion Jelly

First Batch, April 2017

"Jelly made from dandelions is similar in taste to spring honey. Try making some of your own with this recipe!"

I was skeptical - but it truly does taste like honey!

INGREDIENTS
1 quart dandelion blossoms
2 quarts water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 package (1 3/4 oz) powdered fruit pectin
5 1/2 cups sugar

INSTRUCTIONS
Pick the dandelion blossoms and rinse thoroughly. Snip stem and green collar.
Boil petals in 2 quarts water for 3 minutes. Cool and strain, pressing petals with fingers to extract juice.
Measure out 3 cups of dandelion liquid. Add lemon juice and powdered fruit pectin. Bring mixture to a boil (large jelly kettles work best for this).
Add sugar, stirring to mix well. Continue stirring and boil mixture for 2 ½ minutes.
Pour into small glasses and cover with paraffin when jelly is cool. Enjoy!

(I processed mine in a water bath for 10 minutes, instead of the paraffin. )

Fonts With Tails (Glyphs) Cheat Sheet

Glyphs are extra characters in fonts. For fonts like Samantha (a paid font - there is no free version) you have to use a character map to access the extra swirls. There are a few fonts, such as I Love Glitter, where you can quickly add swirls (nothing as ornate as Samantha, but still pretty!) just by adding a few characters such as * \ [ ] or (). I call them "easy glyphs". Download all four of these cheat sheets as a pdf file, here. If that link does not work (too much traffic) Try This One. Links to download each font are found under the photos. MF I Love Glitter Smell The Roses Shorelines Stea klcupid Daddy's Girl Beauty & The Beast Ribbons & Banners LillyBelle ...

What Do I Need To Get Started With A New Cricut?

Which Cricut Should I Buy? I use the Cricut Air 2. The Maker, which is the model newer than the Air 2, will also cut light wood, and fabric without bonding attached. (the air 2 will cut fabric if you use an iron on bonding material on it) That was the only real difference I know of, and I don't need to cut light wood, so I went with the Air 2. I probably would have been fine with the Air. I think, from what I have heard discussed on facebook groups, the only real difference is the speed - the Air 2 cuts faster. Cricut has a comparison of all of their current models here: https://help.cricut.com/help/cricut-explore-difference What Else Do I Need ? 1. Facebook groups and Youtube. Because the Cricut does not come with ANY instructions. Nada. There is one sample project included - a simple card. And it's amazing to see the machine make it. But when it's done... You will need to search out what you want to learn....
