    Why is it so smurfing hard to find apricot or plum jam, or marmalade over here? And vegan crumpets? Why the smurf do American companies have to ruin everything by putting gratuitous amounts of milk powder and corn syrup in so many foodstuffs?

    My mom is the queen of apricot jam. We still have stores she made over ten years ago. (They should probably be thrown out, but that's how much she made.)

    Someone gave me some homemade apricot jam or preserves or something for Christmas and it was incredibly vile. Like, I had to throw away the toast I'd put it on. I think something went majorly wrong, because I like apricots wow was it bad. I need to taste some good apricot jam to offset it.
