Muscadine Jelly

Have you ever had any? Do you know what muscadines are?  For those of you who don't know it's a kind of wild grape.  It has a strong sharp taste and makes the best jelly or wine you've ever had!  I haven't had any in years.  My Mom used to make it until she her knees wouldn't carry her through the woods looking for them.  They grow on a vine that climbs the trees.  You mostly pick them up off the ground.  Yesterday I was on my way back from one of our food plots and I saw them all over the place.  I gave it some thought and decided to pick up enough to make at least one batch of jelly.  I hope that it turns out good.
