we just had an earthquake here.....apparently it measured 6.1. my classroom windows were shaking!!! i just needed to tell someone! thanks for listening amanda

thanks for your help everyone!! i just got really paranoid when every web site I checked said you must use a canner, or you could cause someone to have food poisoning and they might die!!! all your comments were apperciated!

steve earle... transcendental blues

canner...the device (pot) that you are supposed to sterilize the jars in. also...sometimes used at the end of the jam making process to seal the jars. .....i think anyway

ok, so it's off topic...but jam...jambands....sort of close. has anyone here made jam WITHOUT using a canner?? i was about to make some jam with berries i picked this fall, but then i read all these websites that says how bad it is to do it without using a canner....apparently you can kill people!! any advice for this?? i really don't want to kill anyone this christmas!

- 40 here this morning, and we all still had to go to work too!!! nothing closes school in the Yukon, absolutely nothing!!
