Off the top, I was excited to see that its divided by seasons which means I'm not completely shut out for this year. Last night I sort of tried the peach raspberry cardemon well, sort of in that I lack raspberry so just did peach cardamon. The leftovers that didn't fit in a jar were quite lovely on yogurt this morning. I am looking at trying some of the banana recipes as well as the Poire helene and the pumpkin ones. Has anyone tried any of these --either making them at home OR from buying a jar and sampling? My husband finds the idea of banana jam slightly suspect thought the variation with vanilla was given some consideration. Wed Aug 26 11:50:25 -0700 2009 10505 jenn
