Jvox

J is a guy I sort-of-know virtually. He writes very creepy and cool music that really ought to be used as a soundtrack for indie movies. But better than that, he makes his own indie-movie type animated videos. This is not for the faint of heart. Be prepared to be creeped out by a pig.

Strawberry Jam, The Saga Continues...

So rather than doing the work I should have started two hours ago, I'll tell you a little about my jam!

I cracked open a jar of the Cento Pectin version and was surprised that there was as much body as there was, although I deem it still not quite thick enough. I like the flavor, bright and sweet, although to my taste it's too sweet to put into yogurt (don't ask me why that is...) Good color and I like the mashed berries which adds to the consistency. All in all, it's not bad, but I love the simplicity of the Joy of Cooking recipe, so perhaps next year I'll try doing a mash with the JoC and see how that goes.

It'll probably take me a while to get through this jar (a girl can only eat so much toast!) but when another jar from another recipe is cracked open I'll let you know.
