the juneberry or saskatoon or serviceberry grows on bushes all over north america and nobody knows what they are. they even grow right here on campus outside the Stata Center. why buy food on campus when you can just eat it off the tree (and floor?). i saw those trees and i knew exactly what i needed to do... and you can do it too! just follow these 15 easy steps:

1. find juneberry tree like this one.
they look like blueberries kinda

 

2. procure one connie yeh to help. (accept no substitutions)

 

3. have her pick the berries for you. only pick the purpley ones

 

4. steal the berries away from her (when she isn't looking. muahah)

 

5. wash them berries!
(i haz finushd... i can haz jam plz?)

 

6. put them into a pot with water to cover and some lemon juice

 

7. add an unhealthy amount of sugar

 

8. boil

 

9. fashion a turban out of vynil tubing

 

10. the stuff should reduce to
something thick and goopy like this

 

11. press it through a sieve.
the seeds are really hard and plentiful

 

12. get a friend to help. i recommend the connie yeh variety when in season

 

13. it should look like this! or maybe a bit thicker

 

14. pour it into a sterile jar without looking

 

15. after refridgeration you can put it on toast!
