Millions of Peaches

Today's adventure began with a 10Lb box of peaches. I gave several away to my grandma and my aunt. So the question what to do with the rest......... So I went looking around for a recipe and I found this onehttp://texascooking.com/recipes//peachpreserves.htm



So I cut up all my peaches and put them in a pot with my fruit pectin.



After I boiled the hell out of it. I added all the sugar and boiled the hell out of it again.



It was all worth it in the end.



Just a warning to anyone who uses this recipe it is ULTRA sweet. I would recommend cutting the sugar down by like 2 cups. The next time I try this recipe that is my plan anyway.




As promised here are some pictures of my plants and one of the random cats that hangs out.







This is my front door plant. It just started blooming about 2 days ago.



These are my plumerias. They should be blooming by the end of next month. I'm a plant nut there I said it.




Yeah I finally have 2 tomatoes on my hanging Topsy Turvy plant. I hope these are the first of many, but we shall see.
