“In My Kitchen” August 2019
Good gravy! Where is the summer going? So, here’s what was new in my July kitchen!

I strained it and was left with a delicious smelling pulp, full of blackberries macerated in warming spices. …

A novel about strong Southern women, family dynamics, realistic romance, peach cobbler…. What more could one want?
Ginger-Peach Jam (Freezer Version and Traditional)
I must praise the book my mom got me for an uber early birthday: The Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving. For more information and praises on this book, click here for an earlier post. Since work is still super busy, I am pulling this draft out of the archives from peach season this…

Peach “Sleep Over” Oatmeal

Freezing peaches
I wish my mom were here. As an old home ec. teacher, she knows the answer to everything. I have called her a couple of times during Peach-palooza, but if she were here visiting, it would have saved me lots of time on the internet. With almost a full bushel of peaches and nectarines to…
