Your strawberries make me wistful. I didn't get nearly enough strawberries.<br /><br />Tigress - Thank you! The apricots are from my neighbors, a small orchard. They are not organic, and sadly they are sprayed. But I like these folks, they try to stay clean as best they can, and I trust them on that. Add that to the fact that you can't buy local apricots anywhere, and it equals a 25 pound box. Right now I'm dehydrating a bunch!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337291320368324416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-19884211677024190522011-07-15T09:41:51.081-04:002011-07-15T09:41:51.081-04:00what a lovely post julia, i resonate with your fee...what a lovely post julia, i resonate with your feelings of summer. the jam sounds lovely as does your jam making solitude.<br /><br />my blueberries are still all green up this way so i will need to wait on anything blue. and where are you getting 25 pound boxes of apricots?? do i need to take a drive?tigresshttp://www.hungrytigress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-47639453244349441722011-07-15T00:13:44.367-04:002011-07-15T00:13:44.367-04:00So true how everything hits at once.

The color was really lovely, maybe a deeper purple-ish magenta. Sorry I didn't take a picture of the color!<br /><br />Allison - Thanks!<br /><br />Melody - You are SO lucky! They'll come...: )<br /><br />Gloria - You read thoroughly, and I am thankful for that. I made quite a few errors on this post that were mostly grammatical (that's what happens when you post too quickly and don't let it sit for a day to read through again with fresh eyes). But I double checked the sugar and realized my recipe book, which I copied from, had the same error. It is not one pound of sugar, but two. Many apologies for the mistake! And thank you for mentioning the low sugar!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337291320368324416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-41433698329128387912011-07-14T11:09:01.315-04:002011-07-14T11:09:01.315-04:00Your jam sound totally delicious and nice and low ...Your jam sound totally delicious and nice and low on sugar.
