Yesterday I canned peaches with a friend...a friend who didn't want me to mention her on this blog because she thinks she didn't work very hard to get these peaches canned and I guess she's right because really, standing her "preggo" self on her feet for 3-4 hours and slicing peaches at the speed of light is just so easy.So I won't mention your name Jillyn.
Anyway, here's what we did...44 fabulous quarts of delicious Northwest grown peaches. It was a lot of work and I needed a nap by the time we were done. More than anything, though, I look at these jars and I wonder: What was I thinking? There is no way my family will eat this many peaches by this time next year.Or will they?

Way to go! Don't you just love looking at all those jars lined up? Home canned fruit is sooo much better than store bought-it's like gold in a jar! My husband and kids won't eat the store stuff so that forces me to can, and I actually love the satisfaction it gives me. I'm staring at 2 boxes of pears right now as we speak that will be needing my attention in a day or two. Fun Fun!
If you have any need to get rid of some, you know where to find us. ;)
Nice job! Sometime I'll have to hire you as my canning tutor.
Those peaches look beautiful. Way to go! And good job, Preggo.
