Just a note to thank-you for 2 great tips/the URL & "no sugar needed" pectin
from Ball. I can almost everything myself using the
"boiling/emersing/canning"
method & wanted to try a hot/sweet this year for the bagels we get from a
shop across the street from work.
   Can I call you anything besides MudBoy?

PS Did want you to write your ingredients down in case you hit on a killer
      "Rainbow Over Hell" to share with everyone!
