BLUE JELLY Love Lost and the Lessons of Canning

Former Rolling Stone editor and writer Debby Bull loses love, develops depression, searches the world for answers and finally discovers her inner strength . . . while intermittently canning jellies and jams. This topsy-turvy approach to soul-searching connects self-love and confidence with the ability to find happiness in little things. Bull's quirky, gritty narration is as unique as her adventures with gurus, psychics, rock stars, friends and canning. As she describes her path to overcoming depression, Bull breaks into "full recipe," sweetly detailing the necessary materials and step-by-step procedures for creating the perfect jam or jelly while comparing the concoction and its required formulation to her real-life experiences.
