Wild Grapes
Somehow I cannot look at wild grapes without thinking of grape jelly. The last time I tried to make some I ended up with a grape brick. I have an idea for a grape jelly experiment but won't bother sharing until it works, or does not.
I attempted to make grape jelly for my partner on her birthday a few years ago and, as I stated, ended up with a grape brick in a jar. We could not get it out without breaking the jar and who wants glass in their grape brick. It did taste good for as deep as we could get our tongues. The memory of the frustrating results have been with me almost constantly since then.

"grape brick" will now be stuck in my head for days.
