apricots...





Michael's grandparents have a neighbor whose tree hangs into their yard. When the apricots are ripe enough, we get to pick some!! They were a bit small, but worked! Mike wouldn't let the girls climb up the ladder, a lower branch had broken, other pickers getting their first...left the ones more ripe up higher...they were a bit upset...especially Kaylee, don't you love her "I'm mad" body language.

This year I canned 11 jars (5 pints, 6 1/2 pints) of jam, and then 6 qts of nectar.
