Canning; flash back in time!


I jumped in my time machine with my good friend Deb (an organic chef) and traveled back in time to make . . . . apricot jam! We even wore aprons and smiles while the children played at our feet, ahhhh. Then we realized we didn't have the right size canning lids so Deb got on her cell phone and called her mom to go to Smart and Final and pick up some more for us; time warp perhaps? It was a fun adventure!
We picked about 12 pounds of apricots from the tree in my yard, pitted chopped and stewed all day. We kept it pure and simple, just apricots and agave nectar, delicious! My favorite part of the canning process was daydreaming with Deb about all the fabulous meals we could use our jam in. Can't wait to try those ribs Deb!
