Oh the Poms!!

Just look at these pretty little guys.  These couple of clusters, I saved out of the pile because they were different. They grew together in two's and three's. I love nature when it does funny stuff.

 Hubby and I were so happy about this harvest this year.  Last year we didn't get a single pomegranate to eat. Not a one. Sad face.
Look at all the yummy little arils (that's what the red seeds from a pom are called) from 1 dozen poms!!  Hundreds and hundreds of tastey morsels. This year, we were smart and checked with the Almighty google for the best way to de-seed the pom.  Oh, google....the answers it has.....so, we found a really good way to de-seed the poms--less messy and fairly easy. Happy face. LMK if you want me to share my de-seeding knowing-ness....

I think, because we have such a large bounty, I'm going to try to make pomegranate jelly/jam. I'm hopeful that the jelly batch will be good--'cause the pears worked out so well.
