We have ...Well, you would love living at my house. We have 16 fruit trees. When we bought this house in 2005, there were 19 fruit trees, but we've lost 3 to disease.<br /><br />We have 2 apple, 3 peach, 1 apricot, 2 plum, 3 pear, and 5 cherry. (Do you have any idea how many cherries you get in a banner year, when all 5 trees are fully loaded?! MILLIONS, it seems.)<br /><br />Most all our trees produced bountifully this year, and I have been busy canning for the past 2 weeks...applesauce, sliced peaches, dried prunes, and fruit leather. I don't profess to love canning as you do; however, in the middle of winter, when I pull a jar of summer-fresh peaches off the pantry shelf, I am glad I took the time to do it. <br /><br />And as for jam, well I still have 3 dozen jars of jam left from 4 years ago. That year, I probably made over 100 jars of jam, and even though I've given away alot for gifts, I still have many jars left.<br /><br />I really like canning jars, and not just for canning---they are fun drinking glasses for a picnic on the porch, and they make great storage (instead of plastic) for nearly anything.<br /><br />Okay, again, a rambling comment. Typical for me.<br /><br />I'm almost finished with January!!!Patti https://www.blogger.com/profile/12931836399684850729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-30440622062877763712011-01-28T16:24:48.894-08:002011-01-28T16:24:48.894-08:00I love these, so cute!
