:I was dropping my mom off at her house, and her neighbor came up and asked if we wanted peaches. I said yes, she said grab a box and follow me. So I did.
She owns a house with a peach tree in back. House was rented by someone else, but he didn't want the peaches. So I have a good sized box of free peaches, instead of scouting the farmers market next week as planned. And they're GOOD. No idea what kind, but good flavor.
I was going to skin and slice and pack in syrup, but started thinking I'd use them better if individually frozen. In my supreme laziness, I've decided the easiest way to do so would be to cut them in half, remove the pit and freeze. I hate skinning them. The skin wouldn't hurt in a smoothie (and would add nutrients), and would slip off easily after thawing.
What would you expect from someone with 30+ whole tomatoes in her freezer?
Next up are the free Italian plums from my dad's trees. Those are all going to make jam for christmas presents.
