Re: Excess Pounds Raise Risk of Breast Cancer Recurrence, Death: Study
I used to make all kinds of jam, and sadly gave it up! Now I use the fruit fresh, from the gooseberry and black currant bushes I had planted.
But, I adopted a new spread for my toast in the morning - I spray on a bit of olive oil, and sprinkle cinnamon over top. Then sprinkle it on my cut-up apple too. Love it now, and no longer miss my jam. Although I miss making it!
