Orange Jam تطلي برتقال

Do you like Jam? My favorite thing in the morning is to have a toast with butter and my homemade jam along with my coffee. That's basically my breakfast, Faris asks me, Mama “you don’t get tired of eating the same breakfast every day”, and I say no I don’t. We grew up eating homemade jam, my mother never bought any jam from the store. I also think that’s how things were; people make most of that stuff at home. So not only it's a money savior the taste of the homemade jam is much better than any jam you can buy anywhere. at least that’s how I feel about it.
