THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER HERE IN SOUTHERN INDIANA!
While we have sure had some hot and humid days so far here in Southern Indiana and are definitely lacking the rain we need, I have been really busy harvesting and working in the garden early in the morning and working inside the rest of the day! The harvest have been good!
After harvesting my veggies, I took a trip to a local orchard here in southern Indiana and got some wonderful peaches! With these peaches I made some sliced peaches in syrup, some Peach Cobbler Bread, and 14 jars of peach preserves! I also made 4 jars of strawberry preserves with some strawberries I had purchased.
I made several mini loaves of Peach Cobbler bread and Grandma Bagby's Pumpkin bread!
I made some special deliveries to several very special families with some of my mini bread loaves and preserves! I saw lots of smiling faces!
What a days worth of very rewarding work!
Happy Gardening and Baking!

DeleteHi Mindy, What yummy things you have been busy making. Were your peaches expensive? I live in northwest IN and one place told me they wouldn't have any this year due to the frost. I am hoping another place has them this week-end that I can get.
ReplyDeleteI purchased my peaches at Lakeview Orchard here in southern Indiana, Rockport, IN to be exact. They were 5.75 for a basket of #2's and 6.00 for a basket of #1's. They are very good, freestone peaches! From what I understand, down here the peaches have done great! I guess we didn't get as bad of a frost as you did up there! Best of luck in your search for peaches, hopefully you find some! Happy Gardening! Mindy
