Well, the UPS man brought me a package today. A little beat up, but
for UPS that's to be expected.

The inner box (surrounded by styrofoam peanuts) looked much better.
Inside, there were 12 jars in perfect condition.

"It tastes best, hands down, on hot, buttered toast made from my own
homemade white bread."
(a quote from the jar label, next to a picture of *our* Jam Lady!)

I wouldn't know about that. One jar is empty. No bread (homemade or
not) was in the house. No, I didn't eat it all (she said that she had
a taste) (her "taste" couldn't have been much more than a tablespoon).

Thanks, Barb, and thanks to Gedney and My Brands Inc. for making this
possible.

$4.83 each for 16.5 ounces delivered to my door is a great price for
extra great preserves. Shoot, I've paid more than that for cheep-o
store brands.

what to do with the next jar???

Oh, oh, oh!!! Which one of Barb's is it? I now order her Cherry Berry
by the dozen and really do hope there will be plenty again next season
so I can order at least three dozen more.

Peach Raspberry. After this, I'm sure a case of the Cherry Berry will
be heading to Florida (soon!).

Only if you buy it from me, Luv. That one's my homemade stuff. And I
can't make it as cheaply as the commercial producers do, so be
forewarned.

I'm forwarding your note to the CEO at Gedney and their Marketing VP --
they will be pleased to read it, I know. Thanks, Bob.

(Mix some with a little chocolate and dump it on some vanilla ice cream.
Make a smoothie. Lick the spoon and call it a day.

This won't be the last order heading down to the Swamps. Maybe
they'll expand their market!

Thank you!
Think I can get a pickle hat with the next order?

Heh heh. Yeah, mix it with *something*! I licked the spoon too many
times. How many dessert spoonfuls are in one jar? Yep, that's about
how many times I licked the spoon!

Pach Raspberry Chipotle sauce for some smoked or BBQed meat this
weekend sounds like a plan. I have a version of raspberry chipotle
that can only be made better (IMO) with the peach raspberry...

Ta muchly, Nancy. I take it that the only ones of Barb's are the cherry
preserves and the peach raspberry. I can just make out her pic on the jar.
I'd know those <ahem> cheeks anywhere :-)

TammyM, wondering what the Gedney folks think of the explosion of orders for
Schaller's jammies?

It's www.gedneypickle.com, Toots. Lower left, there's a link to order
that will take you to mybrandsinc.com

http://gedneypickle.com/; then link to
http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnlin...=6&s=G&ss=GED; then
to the middle column near the bottom,
http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnlin...&ss=GED&p=3360
for the Cherry; and right below the Cherry is the Peach Raspberry.
http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnlin...&ss=GED&p=3353
for the Peach Raspberry. Harumpph! The Peach Raspberry doesn't show
the jar.

Thanks for your patronage. I can't get rich without your help.

Yes it does. And a handling charge. Both included in the price/jar.

12 jars Peach Raspberry $47.30
Shipping 9.38
Handling 1.25

Total $57.93
divided by 12 jars
Equals 4.8275 rounded
up to
$ 4.83 per jar

The 16.5 ounces is the 'Net Weight' of the contents. The jars make
the total weight more.

I'm happy with the price and I'm happy with the preserves (if I can
keep the spoon out of the jars unless there is something else to go
with the preserves).
