I got all pioneerish this year. My friend Marcie hooked me up with an awesome deal on peaches and pears from some local orcahrds out in the Nampa/Caldwell area. I got 22 pound box of peaches for $10.....yup that's right TEN BUCKS!!! Also got a 24 pound box of pears for $10. I ordered two boxes of peaches and 1 box of pears and about 5 pounds of strawberries. I made 18 jars of strawberry freezer jam and canned 25 quarts of peaches. The pears aren't quite ripe enough to can yet so those are still waiting, but let me be the first to say thank God for grocery stores....this canning business is for the birds!!
