As soon as it was light this morning, we were in the garden picking beans. I think that we got about a peck of green beans. Carol washed them and took them to one of our neighbors on the other side of Town.
Last Friday, I picked a couple of bushels of peaches.
They were not very big, but has big taste. I tried to peel them, but it was difficult. I figured out how to peel them after a couple sessions on You Tube. The key was to let them sit, soften, a couple of days. Today was the third day. Carol put them in boiling water for 30 seconds, and the skins peeled right off. by the time we finished peeling we had 48 half pints.
We haven't canned peaches for a long time. She put them in a water bath for twenty minutes. We finished around 11:30.
That was about it for the day.
