Hooray, hooray, hooray! It worked! My jam actually looks and tastes like yummy jam! I am so excited! I am pretty sure it sealed, as well, though that is my biggest fear... opening a jar only to find it moldy. I picked so many more apricots off the ground today, that I really ought to be making it every night this week. However, a good book and some sleep are most definitely on the agenda tonight. (I am reading "Bringing up Girls," by Dr. Dobson, and am really enjoying it!)I do have to share with you one more exciting find. Tip Nut has a list of FREE label downloads for homemade jelly. No more worrying about not having Photoshop. I narrowed it down to the two I like best, and will show you once I choose. My favorite one, unfortunately, comes in every fruit BUT apricot-- even damson jam. (Who ever heard of damson jam?)
And, about the giveaway... I have scheduled it for June 30. That will be my 2 year blogoversary. Sorry I can't get to it before then. (I may surprise you, but the 30th is my goal!) Because it's taking me so long, I will have to throw in a jar of apricot jam!

Nice! I'll have to swing by some morning and have some jam... mmmmmm. And I'll have to get your "recipe" so I can try it when our nectarine tree blows up. It won't be long now...
I have "Bringing Up Boys", but after the first few chapters I had to put it down because it was scaring me! Maybe I should resume it now? It's been a couple years...
