That looks like a great way to use jam. Although I love jam on toast, I like finding other uses for it too. Lucky to get strawberries this time of year!

Hi, Christy. Like Sheryl said, it was probably a bad seal.

Tell Princess that her room looks good and it certainly looks a lot better than it did the last time I saw it (in person). What did she do with all that stuff that was on the floor? You’d better check that attic cubbyhole! (ha ha).

Newsletter looks good! Sheep look good!

The one lady who had mold on her jam…she did not get a good seal. Always be certain to wipe the rims of jars before adding lids and sealing/canning. Always check jars for seal (center of lid should look “sucked in” (slight depression). Listen for “pop” when jars cool. A knife handle “lightly tapped” on jar lid will sound dull.

I woke up at 4 AM and came out to check up since I can only get “computer time” when #1 son is not hogging the computer.

All my strawberry jam from last year molded. Any ideas what went wrong?

Suzanne, those canned jars of jam, look EXACTLY like the ones my MIL gives us – about a case. Grape and strawberry. She picks the strawberries in June, up in NY. YUM. I put jam on biscuits, use it for ice cream topping (that’s really good), on my egg rolls, on my breakfast sausage…anything I want sweet.

I could eat the whole thing.What tantalizing thing are you gonna whip up next, Suzanne? I don’t think I can stand it.
