Your favorite JAMS, JELLYS, PRESERVES

Okay, so it's Saturday morning here and I've just had my toast and jam. Plus the only thing I have to do today is laundry, so being at loose ends I've come up with a very un-scientific poll - favorite fruity toast toppings!

I LOVE mango jelly! I always buy it in the big tubs at Sam's Club. It's really sweet though, so you feel sick if you eat too much.

I've never had a mango. I'll have to try it out!

My grandmother's orange/apricot marmalade.

I have to say for toast and biscuits I am a tradionalist and love lots of butter and strawberry jam. mmmmmmm

But for desserts I love, love, love lemon curd. I make my own so I can make it as tart as I like (storebought ones tend to be too sweet for me) and it makes a lovely counterpoint to cakes, tarts or any other sweet dessert.

Raspberry! It makes an excellent filling if you put it between 2 layers of cake. We had that for our wedding cake. Absolutely fabulous!

Raspberry!! mmmm

I completely forgot about apricots and raspberries!
Sorry guys!

Strawberry preserves with blackberry preserves a close second. I actually like the seeds! I know, I'm weird !

Raspberry!! With seeds

Strawberry is my fav.....and lemon curd, I could live on that stuff!

I voted for blueberry, but I actually don't have a favorite - it all depends on my mood. I'm allergic to most fruits, anyway. Yesterday I indulged in fresh raspberries, and have spent all day today slathering prescription cream on my hands and feet.

I've always loved Grape Jelly the most
