Peaches

Today I am blanching 50 peaches.  Aldi's had them on sale this week for 19 cents each.  Krogers had them last week for 89 cents a lb. so far I have made 9 pints of peach jam, blanching peaches this morning to make more jam tomorrow morning before heading out to do chores.

I will make more jam tomorrow and what is left will be made into canned peaches to enjoy this winter.  Peach peels will be cooked down and the juice will make popsicles with.

I figured out my cost including canning lids, sugar, peaches and pectin (jars are recyclable) $1.79 per pint of jam.  That's darn good savings.
