Last week was full of canning salsa, tomatoes, raspberry jam, corn and a ton of
peaches. I am so exhausted, I even dreamed of canning peaches in my sleep. Thanks Tiffanie and Lisa for going and getting all the peaches. It was a great sight to see Tiffanie's truck loaded down with the
peaches that all the ladies in the
neighborhood ordered. So I am taking a break from canning for a while. Grace is happy for a break too. She came out of her room and came into the kitchen while I was cleaning up and asked if I was canning today, I
replied no not today. She ran back to her room with a huge smile returned with three books to read to her( I have neglected her).
I wore my
favorite apron made by my sister Whitney and used my Mom's canner and her old jars. So I felt closer to my sis and my mom while I was canning. This was the first year canning alone without family helping, I miss them like crazy this time of year. However I had Grace at my side helping me fill the jars with peaches, mostly eating them.
