Sit, listen to the wind, birds and trees. Allow the beauty and chaos that is nature to enter and propel you through this time we call life. Breath in the smells of an open fire place and a camp fire. Know the difference they have on you and your surroundings. Give with an open heart and mind. Know that there are richer and poorer. But never measure those two thoughts by the amount of money one has. For richness is how you live and give of yourself, not what you have.

Apple Pie Jam
This looks and tastes like apple pie filling and would also make a great recipe for that. Said it made 7 (1/2 pints) but only made 5 1/2 despite the fact that I added almost a 1/2 cup more apples as I wasn't going to throw away a half apple. Looks and smells great.
6 cups cored, skinned, and chopped apples
3 cups white sugar
2 cups brown sugar, packed
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice
1/2 teaspoon butter
1/2 cup water
1 box fruit pectin
In a boiling water bath place your I mixed it all up jars and lids after washing them. leave there until ready to use.
In a large 2 qt sauce pan put all your ingredients except the fruit pectin. Bring to a biol and stir while the apples cook but not to mushy stage. add pectin and bring back to boil and boil two minutes. Ladle into jars and set lids. Then boil water bath for 10 minutes and remove. Allow to cool.
