Today I canned 11 qts of yellow peaches, 2 qts and 5 pts of peach salsa. I used the white peaches to make the salsa because they are a little sweeter. I used some Ball Salsa Mix and substituted peaches for the tomatoes. I tasted it and it is very good and a little hot. It is not real pretty but it is good so that is all that matters. I have about 50 yellow and 30 white peaches left to do and they should be ready by tomorrow. I will have Thursday to deep clean the kitchen, do any wash and pack for Texas. We will leave Friday morning about 4 and drive straight through; it is about a 16 hr drive.
I am getting another truck load of chipped up trees to add to my new garden bed today. So far it is looking pretty good; newspaper, shredded trees, straw from the chicken coop and now more shredded trees. I will need a lot more but this is a good start. If it ever rains and I need to cut the lawn again I will add grass clippings to it and then this fall I will add shredded leaves.
