Peaches!

Every August my Grandpa drives to Chambersburg, PA and picks up a huge truck load of peaches to share with family and neighbors. They are DELICIOUS. And usually a really good bargain (given that a quart of peaches at our Farmer's Market sells for $5). In the past I've ordered a 1/2 bushel for our family, but this summer I ordered us a whole bushel. And they arrived just as we were leaving for Niagara Falls. I was afraid I'd come home to a bushel of fuzzy peaches, but, luckily, they were just about perfect when we made it back! So, we've been working our way through the peaches. Eating some, making freezer jam, freezing lots, and baking some yummy stuff. I sliced the last of them yesterday! Phew, made it! And not a single fuzzy one!

The kids enjoyed them too!
