Peaches for Pie

This year we decided to try peach pie filling with our canning. It turned out AWESOME!

Canning and Sewing

I apparently didn't get enough sewing out of the Halloween costumes this year because I haven't been able to stop. I found some great material at my mother-in-laws house and then bought some as well. I've just been sewing up a storm and I'm not looking to stop too soon. I still have several more shirts, a bear and some repairs to do.
I took a break from sewing yesterday to help can the apples we got from Brother Luke. It was so nice of him to let us come pick his apples for free. We will enjoy them all winter long. We made applesauce, apple butter and apple pie filling.
Annalyn loved helping turn the crank and lick the spatula. Nic helped by turning the apple peeler, which is the coolest thing ever!

...Peaches for Me

Millions of peaches. Well OK maybe not millions but enough at any rate. I helped Susan with the canning today. I love peaches but if it were not for this fabulous lady they would never get canned. I don't like canning but I do love my mother-in-law and the end product.
Now my shelves are lined with jars of beautiful peaches along with diced tomatoes, salsa (which is one jar from gone already) and plum jam.

Thank you, Susan! I literally couldn't (or rather wouldn't) have done it with out you and I'm grateful we did!
