If not you can always re-cook and add more pectin. I didn't re-do because I didn't want to waste the lids. I use jam in yogurt a lot. I buy plain yogurt and just flavor it with my own jams.YD, sometimes with ♥June and ♥Angel Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06976378557392639152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8054676916913880208.post-51253331288202210842010-05-17T08:30:14.994-04:002010-05-17T08:30:14.994-04:00Lilacs top my list of favorite things.

There's a massive lilac hedge in my hometown that folks visit like it's Mecca every spring to see and smell the lilacs. Oh how I miss that!RazorFamilyFarms.comhttp://razorfamilyfarms.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8054676916913880208.post-56207503862774098882010-05-16T22:00:11.707-04:002010-05-16T22:00:11.707-04:00Lilacs are my favorite and I too wish they lasted ...Lilacs are my favorite and I too wish they lasted longer, I love when you walk outside and that is all you can smell. Ours though didn't do well this year. The warm weather brought them out early and I think they just got frosted too many times.
