What an awesome site you have. We share such similar interests. We are in the process of adopting from China. I also homeschool my kids and am a walking frugal shopper. So Fun! Thanks for your tips!!

My daughter and I tried to use the Certo recipe and it was a disaster. Also, they say to just turn the jars upside down. My lids didn't pop.

My Mom always canned when I was little. Your video makes it look so easy! I love the idea of giving a gift basket with homemade jelly with some homemade bread or with a baggie of the dry ingredients for a scone recipe! That makes it a special gift from the heart but does not break the bank! Looking forward to more videos from you...maybe on how to make injera! Thanks for sharing the video, Mary!

Around here they are over $2 a box....which is painful considering they were about .99 only a few years ago! Where do you buy lids?

One of the advantages of homemade jelly and jam is that it does not contain high fructose corn syrup. And Melissa, yes, it is possible to make all fruit spread. It takes a different kind of pectin, which you have to special order. I have done it before and it works well. The pectin is a bit more expensive, I think, and since you are not using sugar, you'll need more fruit. But I am sure it is better for you. Here's a link where you can buy the pectin http://www.pomonapectin.com/order.html HI Jennifer,

I would like to see more videos from you. I've never canned anything myself, although I watched my mom a few times as a kid. Maybe I'll give it a try sometime. The kind of jam I usually buy is an all-fruit spread...it's just sweetened with juice concentrates, not sugar. Have you ever tried canning anything like that? We try to avoid refined sugar as much as possible. Thanks for the video! I would like to see more videos from you. I’ve never canned anything myself, although I watched my mom a few times as a kid.
