Watermelon Jam

Watermelon brings me back to my childhood days in Washington state. I have vivid memories of digging a “safe hole” in a cold mountain stream, placing the family watermelon in the protected area to chill, and then playing and splashing in the river until it was cold. When I eat this jam, I remember the same taste many years ago while I sat on the river’s edge spitting seeds as far as they would go.
