Rhonda's Ramblings

This plum tree in our backyard is a survivor. This tree is tough. We live in the desert and get about 13.44 inches of rain a year. And this tree gets no extra water, yet it produced a bucketful of plums this year.

So I did what any aspiring farmer’s wife would do. I decided to make plum butter. Now, I am not what one would call a “recipe follower”. To me, recipes are just jumping off points. Most of the time this works out well…but not always.

The thing that I don’t love about making fruit butters is the standing over the stove, constantly stirring. So, I decided to just put it in the crockpot. And I didn’t want to use as much sugar as most of the recipes called for, so I didn’t. And I didn’t really measure anything.

And it turned out yummy!!
