My mother makes 24 jars of strawberry jam every year; but this year, I got to make the jam and I got jam-happy.  After making 24 jars of strawberry jam, I made 3 jars of peach jam and 5 jars of blackberry jam.  Mom says that once you have homemade jam, that you cannot go back to "that smuckers crap" and I could not agree more.  Here is the recipe for you all to try it yourselves!  I do not suggest making 24 jars, but a few batches really doesn't take that much time or effort. 

Ingredients: 
Sure Gel Pectin
     For Strawberry Jam: 
          4 cups Strawberries 
          4 cups sugar
     For Peach Jam:
          2 lbs. peaches
          2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
          4.5 cups sugar 
     For Blackberry Jam:
          6 cups blackberries
          5.25 cups sugar

Directions:
     1. Crush/finely chop the fruit you are using and mix with the sugar.  Let this sit for 10 minutes while           stirring occasionally.  
     2.  Place the pectin in a pot with 3/4 cup of water and bring to a boil.  Then boil for one minute and              keep stirring.  
     3.  Pour the pectin into the fruit and sugar mixture and stir for 3 minutes.  
     4.  Finally, pour it into jars and leave them in one place for 24 hours, then place in the freezer for up            to a year.
