I have a huge raspberry patch. I need more recipes. I've had inconsistent jam results, and could use some tips on jam making. I still have frozen raspberries left from last year. We make smoothies, pie, ice cream. What I need is an excellent jam recipe that my kids will like.

I'm thinking of having one installed. Any thoughts? What about the ductless type? I was considering one of these. Recommendations?

Hi. I'm having a little trouble navigating here. I'm more accustomed to the vBulletin format. Where do I go here to see the threads I've already posted on? Is there a subscribed thread list or something like that?
