Welcome to "In a Jam"

"In a Jam" is a blog meant for anyone who wants to learn to can! Canning is totally awesome and super simple. I hope to get everyone as excited about it as I am.
Whether you want to make fantastic jams, spicy salsas, or pickles (gross, but my husband loves them), canning will allow you to keep your concoctions preserved for up to a year. During the summer, the markets are filled with wonderful seasonal fruits that you can preserve for those dreary winter days when you just want a sweet and juicy peach. It's like your own personal can of sunshine!
Throughout this blog I plan to share my own personal recipes and tricks I have learned along with some funny anecdotes and mistakes as well.
