I had a big order that came in Tuesday from my co-op. The exciting part was that I got to pick it up all by myself while the kids were at school!
I ordered 25lbs of sucanat.
Isn’t it beautiful?
I used it, and some of my 20lbs of peaches, to make some jam!
It would have been a very fun process to blog, but I didn’t take a single picture of the process. I had too much going on! I canned seven half-pints, and then put up eight more in the freezer. I still have some peaches in the fridge, we’ve also eaten a bunch, and I sliced up a few for the freezer.
I cooked up a big pot of my apples (skins on – so easy!) and made three quarts of applesauce.
I may do some more applesauce with the rest of my apples or I might so something a little more wild like apple butter. Or some pie filling. Mmmmm… I’m going to have to finish up the peaches pretty quick – in the next couple of days, but the apples will last a bit more time in the fridge. I need to get through James’ birthday!
