Okay so my kids might just have the coolest grandparents in the world! And they are blessed with four fantastic grand-parents. My mom likes to do fun things with her grand-kids. This past week end she took the kids to pick peaches at a local peach orchard. Justin made a peach cobbler from scratch and it was wonderful! He loves to be in the kitchen and has gotten really good at cooking. That's right! He's good looking and he cooks! Sorry ladies he's already taken. Ha! There were still lots of peaches left, so Linda, (my MIL who is a great cook! Wonder where justin got it from!) came over and we started the process for peach jelly. When Justin came home he helped me to finish it all up and we took pictures all along the way...
We started out blanching all the peaches. The kids were able to help with this step because the peaches had gone from boiling hot water to ice water and this made the skin slide right off. Once you get the skin off and pit out you just cut up the inside of the peach, place it into a bowl, and stir it all up.
Once it got to this stage I had to get the kids out of the kitchen because EVERYTHING is piping hot!!!
This is the end product. Haven't tasted it yet, but it sure does look good!
