Then in the fall of 1995 her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, making it impossible for her to continue making her prized Christmas jelly while helping her mother recover. Following the holidays and with her mother on the mend, she was surprised at how many people missed her gourmet gift that year. Knapp decided to test market her tasty innovation by competing in the local and state fairs. After winning 1st Place ribbons at the Lake County and California State Fairs, Knapp knew she was on to something. Seven years later, she said goodbye to the corporate world and in September 2003 relocated to Napa with rededication Noun 1. rededication - a new dedication; "the rededication of the Temple of Jerusalem" dedication - a ceremony in which something (as a building) is dedicated to some goal or purpose to her luscious creations.
