In our stake we are able to purchase peaches and plums every summer. They are great quality and such a great deal. Since I moved here I have learned so much about canning, freezing and anything you can do with this fruit. This year some of my "little sista's" from my ward came over to can and make pies and jam. It was fun to visit and help each other process all of our fruit. There were 13 (almost 15) kids, 4 hubby's, pot luck crock pot dinner and plenty of chaos as you can see by the photo. My sister in law Tara came over the day before and in 2 days we processed approx 140lbs of peaches and 50lbs of plums. Good times and tasty goodies for our families.I just wanted to post a follow up to prove that my kitchen has recovered.
I am glad we are done for this year and am very happy to have my pantry stocked for the winter.
