I think I put raisins in mine and also spices.<br /><br />I think you could just add almost equal parts of sugar and cook it down for a natural type jam. Just use instructions for any fruit jam.<br /><br />I see from the road that my little grove of persimmon trees is still alive. I don't know if they have fruit or not.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-31412705523785097062013-08-07T15:43:49.083-05:002013-08-07T15:43:49.083-05:00Thankfully, no squirrels here but we do have to ne...Thankfully, no squirrels here but we do have to net the trees to keep the deer and the birds out.

But this reminds me of my husband and his friend going squirrel hunting not long after we got married. They brought in a whole bunch of squirrels and told me to fix 'em up and cook 'em. What? We had the biggest fight over that. I'll never forget that one! And no, I did not fix 'em up and cook 'em. I would now though. My mom has enough in her yard for a whole winter's worth of good eating.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01754379649711551718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-8855310902133508282013-08-06T18:21:12.666-05:002013-08-06T18:21:12.666-05:00Doesn't that just frost the heck out of ya whe...Doesn't that just frost the heck out of ya when the animals ruin your harvests whether it be fruits or veggies? We have to keep our red pine squirrel and chipmunk population "under control" (ahem) or they would do untold damage. Pesky little varmints.<br /><br />We had very few blossoms on our apple trees this year (Why? Dunno.) and so have very few apples growing. Our problem the last couple of years has been the blue jays who like to go from apple to apple sampling and ruining the individual apples. If it ain't one thing . . .

You ended up skinning them little boogers and frying them up for a meal.<br />Squirrels can make havoc when it comes to fruit and nuts.<br />I don't like them. We don't have to many of them here.<br />Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-22909005767166329102013-08-06T12:22:57.719-05:002013-08-06T12:22:57.719-05:00My apples did not set fruit this year either.

However some people nearby did get apples to set so I bet it was a local right on the edge thing here my trees are more exposed so no fruit set :(<br /><br />The squirrels have not made the trek across the hay and corn fields into the Small Hold trees yet. Been squirrel free for at least 30 years here.
