I am thinking of trying strawberry and rhubarb next time.<BR/><BR/>I will look out for your concoction, <B>Recipegirl</B>!<BR/><BR/>That's ok, <B>Val</B>!<BR/><BR/>It's great it keeps so long, isn't it <B>Urban Vegan</B>? I don't manage to keep it so long, I cn't resist giving some away and tucking into the rest!<BR/><BR/>I'll have to go and see if you posted your rhubarb jam <B>Mike</B>!<BR/><BR/>Hi <B>Deb</B>, The kitchen smelled gorgeous! Although Graham didn't appreciate the smell of his arch enemy - rhubarb! I enjoy making a label or two, I think it finishes of the jam jar nicely, especially if it is a gift.<BR/><BR/>You stretch those free hours tight as it is <B>Lisa</B>, but I think you may get hooked it you started! Maybe some spicy chutney or chilli jam.<BR/><BR/>I did make the label <B>Ricki</B>, the secret is watercolour paper, it is nice and thick and tears nicely! Weather-wise, we have moved into lots of rain!<BR/><BR/>Thanks <B>Chow Vegan</B>!<BR/><BR/>Thank you <B>Wheeler</B>!<BR/><BR/>It is easy when you have a dishwasher <B>Ashley</B>, but if not it just takes a little extra time in the oven.<BR/><BR/>I am glad you like my jam <B>Rosie</B>, I am looking forward to seeing the line-up!<BR/><BR/>Thanks <B>Johanna</B>, I will think about my words!Jacqueline Meldrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748535381400208316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1082975144654323238.post-66355843672587952272008-04-10T23:15:00.000+01:002008-04-10T23:15:00.000+01:00hi holler - just tagged you for a meme to write si...hi holler - just tagged you for a meme to write six words about yourself if you are up for the challenge (no worries if you don't) - check out tag at http://gggiraffe.blogspot.com/2008/04/long-winded-nut-roast-post.htmlJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1082975144654323238.post-46412237928443711292008-04-10T10:24:00.000+01:002008-04-10T10:24:00.000+01:00Hi Holler, what a great preserve with wonderful ph...Hi Holler, what a great preserve with wonderful photos!! <BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for taking part and I am very impressed with your entry :D<BR/><BR/>Rosie xRosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861602553420699670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1082975144654323238.post-74062748016701658392008-04-10T05:11:00.000+01:002008-04-10T05:11:00.000+01:00Haha glad to hear the jam won Graham over!
