Snowman Buttons' letter to Skvat Cat- Strawberry Lime Jam- YUM!

Dear Skvat Cat,

Happy Holidays to you and the staff!

If you need some jam this holiday, I can recommend this really yummy strawberry, lime jam with orange peel that I just made. I used frozen strawberries, lime juice, grated organic orange peel and sugar and cooked until it jelled. It is fantastically delicious and different than any jam you have tried.

Love,
Snowman Buttons
