This week has gone fairly well (no pun intended). Our county fair didn't seem to be as well put together this year, but I supose the economy effects everything. Tomorrow the rest of the kids sell their market goats. I wonder how that will go.... I've only go to the fair twice this week, including once to just do the chores for the night.

Thankfully, I have been able to get a good deal of peaches canned, so we shall still be able to feed hungry Emmausites after catechisis if need be. Today, the canning of the last peaches went faster than normal, as I had help, though the help *did* manage to get peach peels *all over*. :D As of now, 80 quarts of peaches are done, and I think about 16 pints of peach jam..... It took three bushels of peaches to make that much. There is something very satisfying about have nice pretty jars full of peaches sitting in the pantry. : )
