Jam-tastic

We've neen jamming in the Henbogle kitchen. It has been an exceptional year for fruits -- at 25 lbs., we stopped counting how many blackberries our patch had produced, and other fruits are gorgeous as well.

With all this gorgeous fruit, I made jam, lots and lots of jam -- blackberry, peach, ginger-peach and blackberry-peach jam, to be precise. All in all, I've got about 30 half-pint jars of jam stashed away in the pantry -- the majority of which will be used as gifts, but I'm sure a few jars will be gracing my toast, too.

May I be so bold as to request a jar of Ginger-Peach for Christmas?
Yummmmm!

The finished jars look wonderful!! May I have a delicious jar of "Succulent Blackberry Peach"? This is too cool, request your jam on line from relatives!

Personally, I would like to request one of each. I mean, you did make a lot!!
Just kidding........I just hope I am on the receiving end for at least one jar. Your pick! Karen

Hmmm, clearly one of the flaws of blogging is the end of surprises at Christmas-time! Don't worry, all, I'm taking notes of your requests :-)
