<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Hassol combines mouth-watering recipes for jams and preserves with personal reflections on the spiritual joys of berry picking and apple gathering. Line drawings.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This book is about my relationship with jam, my soul, music, and the world in which I live. When I make jam I slow down, my actions become rhythmical, my thinking clear. The repetitive motions of washing, stirring, pouring, and labeling allow me the space to think about my life -- what it means to be starting over and how I can embrace this stage of my life with vitality and joy. <br> With warmth and love, Joan Hassol takes us on an evocative journey through raspberry patches, in search of beach plums, down memory's lane, and ultimately to her bed-and-breakfast on Cape Cod, where her jam business, Well Preserved, is in full operation. In over seventy easy-to-prepare recipes -- none of which requires special equipment -- she reveals how to create such goodies as blueberry, wild cherry, and concord grape jams, five-fruit marmalade, pear with frangelico jam, and green tomato chutney, as well as breads, muffins, and cakes to complement the preserves or to serve on their own. <br> <i>Well Preserved</i> is a jam-making hymnal, a vibrant celebration of nature's rich bounty, as much about the soul as cooking.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Joan Hassol, </b> mother of six and grandmother of nine, started her<br>jam-making business, Well Preserved, in 1990. She lives in Brewster, <br>Massachusetts.
