  • Sure:

    4 pounds of peaches - I used about 18 medium size peaches...blanch them, put them in ice water and then peel them.  Slice them up and combine with 1/2 cup of water and simmer until peaches are soft. 

    Put them through a food mill or food processor (don't liquefy them) you should come out with 2 quarts of peach pulp  (4 cups)

    combine your peach pulp with 4 cups of sugar and cook until thick and the  mixture can be rounded up on a spoon.  Ladle in to hot jars and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes

  • foundation is being poured for our house today, and framing should be going up by Monday :)
  • Just got back from the baby doctor and everything looks good. I was a little worried because I haven't been feeling her move quite as much lately, but everything seems to be fine.

    Doctor estimates baby weighs between 6 - 6.5 lbs. The sonogram tech estimates 7.5 lbs. I really hope the doctor's estimate is right. 

  • Contract submitted on our house last Saturday.  Inspection today went great.  It was the best our realtor had ever seen!!  We just have to replace a few light bulbs and the furnace filter and we are asking the sellers to fix a window.

  • DH finally made it home from Singapore this week, I'll be 37 wks prego tomorrow, and the nursery is all finished. All we have left is to install the carseat in the car, pack the hospital bag, and birth the kiddo! I CAN'T WAIT to see her little face and hold her! Almost here! Oh, and my parents are coming over on Aug 19th- I miss them and can't wait to see them! We love it here in Japan, but it is REALLY far from family so I' can't wait to see them!
