Peach Heaven … whatever shall we do?!
We have been swimming in peaches the past few weeks.
I placed a few group orders for our neighborhood from Burgess Orchards.
They even delivered them to my home.
They are Red Haven Peaches and are so juicy and tasty.
I think I ended up with 4 (20 lb) boxes by the end of it all.
$20 for 20 lbs for freshly picked peaches. Okay!
I wanted to freeze some… I can’t even remember how many quart bags I finished with.
I was so very tired. I don’t know how people can all autumn long.
My feet and legs get weary.
I made a peach crisp… which was so-so… not so crisp –
but makes for a tasty breakfast the next day!
I made jam.
Plain Peach jam failed. Completely failed.
It is peach syrup only I put too much sugar in. Bleh.
Raspberry peach set up much better.
I froze it for the next year of happy eating for Miss Hannah (my only jam eater)
Zuzu loves peaches.
Tru loves peaches.
Max and Abe – not so much.
Hannah loves peaches … like loves them.
She’s also a good helper at peeling the blanched peaches.
I love happy helpers.
