Nearby Dripping Springs is home to New Canaan Farms, or the Jelly Ranch, as we've come to think of it. Their whimsically illustrated brochures and Web site promote their complete line of jams, sauces, salsas, dips, and mixes, available for purchase individually or in gift assortments. We found ourselves partial to the Brazos River Blackberry Jam, the Texas Red Plum Jam, the Bee Creek Honey Mustard, and the Cibolo Creek Cilantro Salsa. Their newest offering could perhaps be the quintessential Texas millennium gift: a 32oz jar of Texas Caviar beautifully packed in a wooden crate, complete with some handy serving selections and the story of why eating black-eyed peas on New Year's brings good luck.
