Default OK, I'll start


Over the weekend I found California apricots in a local
(Colorado) greengrocer's on sale for 88 cents a pound.
I bought a flat (~20 pounds) and made 4 batches of regular
jam and one of freezer jam for a total 37 jars.
I used the SureJel lower sugar recipe and they all turned
out quite well.

The fruit was small and not terribly sweet although the
flavor was good. I found only 3 bad ones in the
~140 total count.

We go through a lot of apricot jam, our favorite, for our
own use as well as gifts.
