PEACHES

I love this time of the year, because it means FRESH yummy peaches. After living in Colorado so many years and enjoying the peaches from the western slope in late July and August, then we would go to Utah and get them all the way to the first of October. Unfortunately, the ones we found in Texas just didn't compare, but we are still searching..(before we left Tx, we had a source , but can't find them anymore)
 Since we try to attend conference, we made it at the end of the season and we were rewarded with "total deliciousness"
Tried to wait until the last possible minute to purchase, (got the last of 3 cases that was left) so that we could get them home to can them without them spoiling. I think we lost bout 5 of them, but that's about normal. This was the first time that I actually "canned" them. I usually put them in freezer bags, but I wanted to try my hand at the canner.  Fantastic results.........see for yourself. Yummy, too!
