PINEAPPLE-APRICOT JAM

crushed pineapple, drained
chopped apricots
sugar
lemon juice

Measure 2:1 apricots to pineapple.  From the total mixture, measure
1:1 sugar and apricot mixture.  Place pineapple and apricots into
a large pot, and add about 1/4 c. lemon juice per 7 c. mixture.
Bring pineapple and apricots to a boil.  Add sugar.  Bring to a
rolling boil and reduce heat.  Cook on medium-high (low boil) until
desired consistency.  20 minutes for thicker jam, 15 minutes for
thinner jam.  (I have added margarine, about 1 Tbs. just before I
reduce the heat.  This really cuts down on skimming foam!) Skim.
Ladle hot into jars and cap.  Process in boiling water bath 10
minutes.
