Too much extra ripe fruit means jam-making time! I like this "smear" because I don't really have the patience to make legit jam, and this recipe has way less sugar!
2 ripe apricots, chopped
2 small oranges, peeled and chopped
1 tsp. grated ginger
1 T. honey
1 tsp. cornstarch
In a saucepan, mix together the chopped apricot and oranges, ginger and honey. Bring the mixture to a boil. Mix in the cornstarch, and continue to boil until it thickens up a little. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Blend the mixture in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to an air-tight container and refrigerate. Smear it on toast, spoon it on top of your oatmeal, blend it up with ice and green tea (delicious)....or just eat it with a spoon!
5 things to do this month:
1) Practice yoga once a day.
2) Get this blog rolling!

4) Camping, hiking and biking!
5) And of course I'll be a counselor at EFY (Especially For Youth - a camp that is sponsored by my church) for all of next week! (alright...alright....alright alright alright hey!)
