You have to practically be in the CIA to get a hold of this jam. (I mean the one in Langley, Virginia, not the one in Hyde Park, New York.)
I first heard about We Love Jam from David Lebovitz. Basically, these two guys with an old Blenheim apricot tree in their backyard jar up the fruitfall every summer. Since it's made in such tiny quantities, if you want some, you have to get on their waiting list. I immediately signed up, and when the notice came in a few months back that they were ready to accept orders, I promptly bought the maximum 4 jars.
They arrived today. I have yet to taste them but the ingredient list is awfully enticing: apricots, sugar, spices. I have a feeling whatever piece of toast this gets slathered on will thank its lucky stars it went out on such a high note.
Save some for me!!!

Yours arrived?
I cannot WAIT for mine to get here. I think I'll sit outside on the step with a sign for UPS ("Stop! I'm the one who ordered the jam!"), just in case they drive by.

I love the packaging. Very belly-button, peek-a-boo...
Well I have a little seattle gift for you. Maybe we can trade-- I can get a bite when I hand you your thing...? Just one bite?
