Jam Making
I put the peaches in the freezer, still have 2 large containers of those +
the 23 jars of pear jam. I guess I'm set for winter. I've found jam is
really good stirred in oatmeal. Also I make sweet and sour sauce for
chicken with jam, mustard, and vinegar.

Oh my word, I can't imagine ever using that much jam! I see lots of
toast,
waffles, pancakes, etc. in your future. grin I think the
applesauce/pearsauce
would be a nice change of pace. So now you've done peaches and pears ...
how many
jars do you have stored away?

I have finally finished with the pears, I have 23 half pint jars. I put
the
rest in the freezer and will have enough for 10 more jars if I decide to
make jam out of those. A lady at our WW meeting said she cooked the
pears
and then used a hand blender on them and made them like applesauce for 1
point per 1/2 cup. I may try that too.

LOL! You are going to be eating pear jam for an awful long time! I
had a
hard
enough time pouring the 2 cups of splenda into the blueberry jam, can't
begin to
imagine 5 cups of sugar ... and only turning out a few cups or pints of
jam.
YIKES! You are right, it does make you rethink things. I will admit
though, I am
somewhat of a convert. You know I have problems with the artificial
sweeteners,
but in the jam I can't detect any aftertaste at all. This week-end I'm
going to
make up the peach jam, should carry me through for a while.
