My wife is an extraoridinary jam-maker and the many fruit trees we have provide her with plenty of product.

She makes an outstanding apple butter, and her grape and cherry are awesome, but for sheer delight there is a tree in our front yard that is a cross between an apricot and a peach. They're called "peachcots", sweeter than peaches, and smoother than apricots.

That is, by far, the best jam in this Universe.

Gooseberry and Apple, homemade, a rare pleasure in a harsh world.

I like Cherry or Prune jam.

Damsen Plum Jam for me, granny made the best hehehehe

Has to be chunky marmalade for me...not too keen on Jam.

Rasberry Jam - I love the seed crunch in it

and

Orange Marmalade - love the slivers of rind in it

Bramble Jelly or a nice tart Raspberry Jam, homemade is the best.

Homemade blueberry jam, blackberry jam and elderberry jam.

can you make jam out of apples? sounds gak. I like marmite best but I did make a nice blackberry and whiskey jam this summer. Steep the blackberries for a few weeks in whiskey and sugar and away you go.

we did pomegranate,

But this is different snooze, I'm wondering if it was or is like something that we had when I was younger, well lot younger a kid, lol

I thought this was about the Allman Bros.

i like strawbery, apple and rasberry jam. most of the time we just buy strawberry though.

concord grape with whole grapes.

Oh, bring on the guitars and drums, I'll hit the keyboards, and we'll crank it up just a tad.......................

just a tad?

come on you know you want to turn it right up to full...so we can all here it.

mmmm...jamming.:guitarist

The aknowledged master of the "Jam" is of coure one Robert Marley of Jamacia, and his song "Jammin" is the definitive word on the subject of, well, "jammin". :guitarist
