did a side trade with roccomanchickens for some handmade washcloths in trade for some cherry jam. Can't wait to see those come in the mail. I've been lurking on the thread but havent caught anything in time to play yet. I always find what I want after someone else has already taken it.

I just added a want and offers I have on my BYC page for side trades.

I've been making apple and peach. I haven't found a good cherry recipe to make yet. I'm jealous! What kind of cherries do you use?

They were sweet cherries that I bought at the store. I unfortunately don't have any cherry trees in my area. Also it was just the recipe on the pectin I bought. Nothing real special. I also made blueberry which is my favorite by far!!! Though peach comes in close second. lol We usually make blackberry and black raspberry as those grow wild on my land but they didnt do well this year. They started but then the berries just shriveled up and died. I guess they probably got too hot without enough rain.

I'm hoping the elderberries do better because that's my DH's favorite. I'm looking forward to making it for him.

Our blackberries didn't do well, either! I was really hoping to make some jelly from them, too. I love the blueberry preserves the best, too! I did a peach/habanero salsa today. It is really good! I also do a mango/habanero jelly that we put over cream cheese. I have to make lots and lots of that and hide it from the kids!

Do you know if you can make applesauce from the leftover pulp from apple jelly? I want to make clear jelly, but don't want to waste the apple solids. I'd love it if you have a recipe!
