i went to bed last night with an overwhelming feeling of GRATITUDE.
*GRATEFUL for a mother and grandmother who took the time to teach me.
i remember my grandma's kitchen on canning day, the smell, the boxes of fruit, and my family. i even remember my grandpa and dad doing there part in the kitchen; it was packed in there. my job was to peel the peaches after they had been blanched, you had to peel as fast as you could because they kept on a comin'... it was fun.
*GRATEFUL for a friend that called and said "hey, do you want to can peaches with me."
sometimes you just need that extra push to get motivated. i hadn't canned since i was young and thought that it was more difficult then it really ended up being. thanks...
and last but not least...
*GRATEFUL for the farmer's and the delivery people for bringing these beautiful peaches. my family is sure to enjoy them through the winter months : )
i hope everyone had a GREAT long weekend! i know we did...

Stacey made us a bit of your "peach heaven" (that is what we have named it) recipe. The peaches with carmel on a bit of vanilla ice cream....Dave is still drooling! You'll have to send all your peach recipes our way when you start to crack open the bottles. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous. I really wanted to do some canning stuff this year, but didn't get to.
ReplyDeleteI just canned salsa and marinara sauce this last weekend. I would love to know how you did the peaches. I am new to canning :)
