Blenheim Apricot and Pineapple Jam

This is an old-fashioned recipe that my Grandmother Rose taught me. It has always been a winner in my household.

Take time during the short apricot season to make a batch; you'll be glad you did. Our Blenheim apricots are grown in Sunnyvale, Ca. at the Sunnyvale Community Center.

Classic Cherry Pie

Every summer, I find time in my busy schedule to bake a Cherry pie for my dad for Father’s Day. It’s a two-day process--pitting the Cherries one day and baking the next. It’s really worth the extra work when you taste that homemade Cherry pie, fresh from the oven! Serve it warm with vanilla ice cream
