Jammy Goodness

I went shopping with my best friend yesterday, and somewhere between looking at work gloves for her stepfather and picking out spray paint for my fake-y shake-y wood end table, we decided to have a strawberry jam cook-off, my pectin brand vs hers. I'm using Sure-Jell and my grandmother'  secret family recipe. (which, when I asked my grandmother what it was, turned out to be the recipe on the Sure-Jell box. Hmm.)
I fully expect both batches to be delicious. I finished mine last night in an hour, and now have 11 half-pints of cooled jam on my counter. The only awkward part was the water bath, because I made a little too much for the eight-jar recipe and my biggest pot only holds eight jars.
