Peaches Galore

I am the same as most of my friends right now
and I'm up to my ears in peaches!
We went to the church orchard the other day
and got 4 big boxes full of peaches.
I learned to do lots of different things with them.
BIG THANK YOU to my Mother-in-law!
The above pictures is the beginning of our process.
Canning!!

This is just a small portion of my kitchen.
Picture the ENTIRE kitchen covered in peaches.

This is my wonderful Mother-in-law and one of my
best friends skinning the peaches.

When we finished we had 44 bottles of peaches!!
Yahoooo!!

We also had 33 jars of jam!
Another Yahooo!

This is all that we could salvage out of two medium sized boxes.
They got too ripe. Sad. :(

Thanks to another friend of mine I learned how to make peach crumble!
Delicious!!!

And I froze the remainder!

This was such a wonderful experience for me. My family went to the orchard with two other families. Then I enlisted my Mother-in-law to come help all three of us Mom's learn how to can!
We learned the entire canning process and jamming process also.
It was so fun from beginning to end!!
Now I have yet another Suzy homemaker skill!!
