Nice!!! Nothing like good ones.

I still remember the first time I tried canning. Getting them all pretty in a jar is an art form.

@SharkE : DH went with friend first of July to Pearson Peach Farm- Ft. Valley Ga. Returned with case of peaches with about 75 large ones and had a cooler packed very good with ice- still frozen two quarts of peach ice cream. Still have a quart in the freezer. Froze peaches to enjoy this winter. This is an annual trip for DH. I made the peach cobbler for the 4th. Southern Bee🍑🍑🍑🍑

@Still Raining : Yep- real art form. Tried canning peaches back in the 80's and only once but we were given several bushels of peaches. Southern Bee🍑❤️

Just had my teeth bleached, so, I'm kind of testy to anything too

There are no peaches as good as Colorado peaches. I have no idea where to buy them here.

I haven't missed a hair cut, we still go out every Mon. there for awhile we had to get drive thru and eat in car, but, we bought a big new van while the buying was good.

Dentist visits, I decided my teeth wasn't good enough didn't want chalky

reporter on TV teeth, but, thought I could do better. Don't smoke, drink, no coffee, no wine, stuff like that. Drink tea thru a straw.

One must look good at all times hahhahahaha Got to go get on recumbent bike ate to much ice cream before I froze it. LOL

I feel so sorry for the really older people in my church. They have been shut ins for 4 months. I think that's cruel. Their kids bring groceries to them and this one guy got mad at his mother for whining to go to salon to get hair cut and he got pair of scissors, told her to go on front porch and he hacked it off himself.

I have to get out or I'd go nuttier then I am.

Be smart don't do beach parties, concerts, go to rallies, just have common sense , but, you don't have to be a monk

@SharkE I would think Texas' heat would be perfect for growing peaches? Enjoy!

@SharkE

would you share the name of the company in Colorado you ordered from?

most of the Colorado peach crop was destroyed by freezing temps and ice

thanks

Re: Fresh Peaches are in

SharkE — Tue, 14 Jul 2020 17:42:15 GMT

Didn't order them. The people that pick them have a tent around the town in Amarillo. I got mine from the parking lot in front of Coulter Nursery.

(sells trees and such) on Coulter St. Amarillo, Tx

Yeah, girl, me too. I can't find strawberries to save my soul.

Peaches and cherries are sold by the Colorado vendors who go

get them and then sell here. All I can find are tomatoes that are grown in water, that Hypo whatever you call it.

Will have corn coming in by end of month.

Up in Ind. it was lot nicer if they didn't get drowned out by the never ending rain. LOL Can't seem to win. GA. I would think be good for peaches and Vidalia onions.

Colorado and Amarillo, Tx area both had late freeze this yr. My husband lost his tomato plants he even picked up the buckets and

put in garage they still died. Bought all new ones and I bought him

some nutrient spray from HSN to spray on them seemed to be good stuff. Called micro nutrient vitamins something like that. This part of Tx is just all about MEAT,cows, cows,cows. Meat is tough but, i got pressure cookers thank the almighty. LOL

I got plenty of jack rabbits I can't have any nice shrubs. Saw something called Desert Willow in front of Loew's MOn. Yep, I found them in a nursery, but, knew in a minute jacks would get them, so, not paying 60 per plant for the jacks a fine meal. Just stick with junipers, yews and pine shrubbery. all I can have. Out in the country suburbs, jacks have taken over.

YUM!!! Love fresh peaches. We bought a case of Porter, Ok peaches on July 3rd.

Cunningham's will be here next month with Colorado peaches. They will only be making one stop this year because of the freeze they had. I will have to buy 2 cases.

@SharkE

Cunningham's from Colorado will be there Aug 3rd at the Church of Christ at the Colonies from 7-3 or sell-out. They are only making 1 stop to each location this year due to loss from freeze. Enjoy!!!

If you want to share your peach ice cream recipe please post if not that's ok. Looks really good.

@Kachina624

I don't think you are in Ok or Tx but if you are you can look up the truck schedule for Cunningham Peaches from Colorado online.

Just Goolgle where you live plus peaches to see what comes up. That's how I find them around here.

@SouthernBee @SharkE

I also have sensitive teeth. I just started using Dr. Bronners toothpaste which I did not like at first but really like now but can't eat fruit. I had to go back to Colgate sensitive so I could eat all these peaches. LOL!!!

I'm going to try using each one every other day or use one morning & one at night to see what happens. It won't take long to find out that's for sure.
