  26. I just made a batch of "Oregon" peach jam on Labor day. Was craving peach jam big time. Never had Strawberry peach jam but sounds delicious!! Glad you are getting rain. It hasn't rained here in central Oregon for quite a while either. Our main concern in this neck of the woods is forest fires. But fall is coming and so are the rains eventually.

  27. This sounds so delicious--I never would have thought of combining these. I have been busy canning tomatoes.

  28. Would love to try that combination. I've made some jams over the years but they are usually just the basic flavors. I do have plums I'm waiting on and hoping to make a chutney with them. I've never had chutney :}

    ReplyDelete
  29. Oh that sounds so good!!! I would love to try it! Hopefully after the party you will share the recipe too? Where you live, do you have any nut trees? I figured out that I have an English Walnut tree and it is full!! At first I thought they were apples. Can hardly wait to harvest them and figure out how to do it...especially drying them. Any ideas?
    Blessings for your rest of the week,

  30. That looks very yummy! Have never tried peach and strawberry jam! I am hoping to get to the cider mill this fall and make apple butter yum love it and have a new crockpot recipe I want to try.

  32. I greatly enjoy your blog! The jam sounds so good! I remember homemade plum jam as a kid-yummy! The strawberry peach combo sounds just as delicious. Thanks for your generous spirit! Stephmansdoerfer@yahoo.com

  35. Strawberry Peach Jam sounds delicious! I just got a big bunch of pears so I'm planning on making some kind of pear preserves. There are several yummy recipes I'm looking at.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Sounds just delicious, Linda! How I would love to win a jar! If not, I will just have to make some. I have plenty of strawberries in the freezer and could get some peaches.

    I agree with a commenter above, you are such an inspiration. You accomplish so much at home even on the days that you work. A great example to me. I struggle with using my time in the most productive ways. Thanks for being such a wonderful example.

  37. I left a comment on FB - I've made peach-raspberry freezer jam, but never used strawberries. :D

  38. We've gotten some rain here in southern Missouri and are so thankful. The jam sounds great -- I've never had that combination before.

  44. Sounds really good. Are you giving out the recipe? I would never have thought of mixing strawberries and peaches. Did you have fresh strawberries to use with the fresh peaches or were they frozen? I'd love to win, so I can taste this jam. You are so kind to share.

  47. I have been making a salad dressing using fruit preserves, balsamic vinegar and water to kind of neutralize the vinegar :) The consistency of the preserves makes it think & wonderful. I've tried it with strawberry and then a pineapple/apricot combo.... Wonder what your jam would be like?????

    ReplyDelete
  48. I don't think I've ever even eaten strawberries and peaches together and definitely in a jam. Looks and sounds good. Would love to win....can almost taste it on a biscuit.

  49. I have never heard of this, would love to try it. Love STrawberry/Rhubarb jam. Bet it would be yummy on my Homeade Sour Dough Bread. Thanks for doing this.

  52. I've never thought of combining peaches and strawberries. I'll bet that is delicious. I've got lots of jalapeno peppers coming from my garden right now. I made some pepper relish and the family loved it. I think I will need to make some more for Christmas gifts. I just hate burning fingers. ~smile~

    Blessings to you!

  63. I am new to your site and simply love it. The recipe for the whole wheat dinner rolls sounds so good. I am going to try making them soon. Being able to connect with other like-minded and like-hearted women across this nation is such a blessing. I do not have a blog but follow by reading blogs and by email. Your jam is lovely. I will have to look for strawberries!

  73. I am a Kansas girl living in the mountain foothills. How I long for Sandhill plum jam (was a young girl in Hutch) that my mom made from wild plums. You have to taste to understand. Thanks for the great reminders of the beauitful state of Kansas.

  74. Hi Linda! Just "liked" you on Facebook. I am so happy that you are getting rain. It's been plentiful here in Ohio and it's made me wish I could barrel it up and send it to all those needing it.
    As for your jam, that sounds like a mix that my husband would really work on the "honeydo" list with the promise of that and some warm fresh baked bread or biscuits. Thanks for sharing such good things with your readers. Be blessed.

  75. WoW! That jam looks really good! I just love your blog.....thanks for sharing!
