Peach time!

Late summer is peach time.  I almost missed it this year, but managed get myself organized enough to purchase a 20-pound box of peaches earlier this week.

They were still pretty hard when I got them on Monday, but ripened well over the week.  I canned them this afternoon.

Peaches!

The 20-pound box turned into 10 quarts of slices.  As you can see, there are only nine jars there. Sadly, one jar cracked in the water bath.  I hate disasters like that, but that's only the second jar I've ever had break in the canner, which isn't too bad for roughly 15 years of canning.
