It was almost too much new-to-me stuff to pull it off, but I did it!

#Canning violet and redbud jellies today. I used my new pressure canner as a water bath canner(no pressure, obvs), and it was almost a little too tall on the new stove.

I got a couple of steam burns and one burn on my arm from the edge of the canner. So, lesson learned. I really should use my water bath canners only for this, because they are shorter and wider.

I also used a different pectin, and new-to-me recipes for both jellies. I really need to write down my favorites cause it's hard to find them again with the internet being so enshittified.

I must've had a sugar fairy visit, because I didn't buy enough, but I found more in the cabinet. 🤷🧚‍♂️

I should not have put the hibiscus flowers in the violet tea to color it. The jelly is gorgeous, but it's not purple.

I still have enough dark purple violets that I may be able to make another batch later this week after it stops raining. I will have to go get more sugar and jars, though.

I think if I make the second batch, I will remove the green part of the violet flowers first, which means I'll need to pick twice as many flowers.

I made a sugar syrup last week with only purple violet petals and it is astoundingly purple.

Unihertz Jelly Star not showing contacts in calls (incoming calls, and history), but only number.

Google Contacts is also empty (and says, that sync of 331 contacts was successful).

Does someone have a solution?

Didn't happen on any else smartphone I owned, but on Jelly Star it happens regularly. Sometimes a restart helps, but not always.

Pretty annoying,... when I greet people I know as if it was a call (potentially random) from someone unknown.

More than 2 million tons of jams are sold annually in the world, and during 2018-2023 the volume of global sales of these products has been slowly increasing. The exception was in 2020, when the consumption of fruit and berry jams decreased against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as in 2021, when high consumption growth rates were noticed due to the effect of deferred demand.
