Doing my best for Him: Apricot pie filling

Apricot pie filling

We canned 7 quarts of apricot pie filling today using Yolanda's recipe. The jars look beautiful. Tomorrow I will remove the bands, wash the jars, label and store. I noticed the apple trees are loaded. One of these days I will be canning apple pie filling hopefully. So far this year I have been able to get free cherries, free apricots, I am hoping to get free apples and pears. Nothing better than free fruit. This is a good year for fruit. Even the sand hill plums are good this year. Is there such a thing as plum pie? I have plenty of jelly but if I could put up pie filling I would do it.

Caroline said...: I use jam or preserves in fried pies. It sometimes leaks through but makes for a yummy glaze. Not the prettiest pie but my guy loves them.; 12 November, 2013

Doin My Best For Him Blog

The views expressed on this blog are my own. They are not always politically correct and sometimes not even gramically correct. But they are my views and in this country I still have the right to express them. If you do not agree with me that's ok. I will not publish nasty comments or comments I feel are trying to start arguments.

I write this blog mainly for my own satisfaction.

I also wanted a place to put my recipes as I find/use them that would be accessable to me and my daughters.

If you do not like my blog or what I say then find one that you can enjoy.

I love comments as long as they are nice.

My Statement of Faith

I believe that God is the creator of all. I believe that His son Jesus came to earth to live, die and be resurrected for our sins if we accept that free gift. I won't water down my faith or accept half truths to please people. I believe the authorized King James Bible is the Holy word of God and that other versions are fakes written and published by apostates. I prefer to sit only under teaching that is taught from the authorized King James and no other version. I believe Jesus is the only way to heaven. I believe in the trinity. I believe our Lord is comming soon.
