Hmmm, which one first? lol
Opus news--
I received an email from a fellow fan in Hong Kong who reported she FINALLY got her MJ Opus today! YAY!
I hope I have more of those emails like that!
Cali update--
I'm a girl who loves to shop ... and find great deals. That includes food. LOL I found some GREAT deals this weekend for peaches, blueberries and strawberries-- I mean GREAT deals-- so I went back on Sunday and bought them up. (2 lbs strawberries /$2, 3 full pints blueberries /$3 and 1 lb peaches /$ .77). The blueberries were easy to take care of-- put them in the freezer. LOL The peaches and strawberries needed to be dealt with-- so that was yesterday's project. From sunup-- cleaning peaches and strawberries to can. Oh what fun (not!) and then making preserves with the strawberries and something new this year-- pickled peaches. Haven't a clue what they will taste like (will find out in 2 weeks) but dang, they are pretty! LOL
So I am sorry about Sunday and I hope you'll forgive me. I think we still need to plan on all of us meeting up somewhere-- and then we can bring all our foods with us-- LPPC's cakes, my jams-- what else does everyone make? It would be like a World Fair. LMAO!
Love to each of you.. I miss you so much!
L.O.V.E.

ReplyDeleteYou can also mix blueberries with strawberies, or strawberies with peaches in a jam....cause you will have a mixture between the sweet and the bitter of the fruits...

ReplyDeleteJAM..JAM HERE COMES THE MAN
HOT DAMN!!!!
LOL Volos!
ReplyDeleteand.. what exactly is a pickled peach??
ReplyDelete^^^^ Preserve peaches in pickle? OMG!!!!
ReplyDeleteL M A O at VOLOS! Now I can't stop singing that song! I'll have to make it a ritual to play it every time I make jam now. LMAO
ReplyDeletePickled peaches-- I know it sounds gross. That's what I thought too! Apple cider vinegar and sugar, with a spice bag with pickling spices and cinnamon sticks, then pierce each of the peach halves with a few whole cloves. A few other spices-- but that is the basis of it. I can't wait to try them (two weeks!) BUT... the liquid smells AWESOME!
Made strawberry preserves & jam (started with about 10 lbs of strawberries! lol).
Have some pickled veggies to make this week too but those should be small batches so nothing like a whole day's worth of work. LOL
Pickled peaches don't sound so bad, I guess.
ReplyDeleteI had toast and strawberry jam for supper. Hmmmmm.. not sure why I was craving it so bad! LOL
I have an opened jar of fresh peach preserves a friend of mine and I made a few weeks ago. Those are yummy too.
ReplyDelete*ducks*
OK Cali... now you are just being nasty!!! LOL
ReplyDelete.... I'm sure I have a can of peaches in the cupboard though... now calling my name...
Darn you, Cali!! You better duck! HaHaHa!
Im about eating some peaches...( your fault Cali !!!! )....
ReplyDeleteMy name is Velvet and Im a peach addict naw !!!
Muah? Nasty? Naw. A brat? Yes! lol
ReplyDeleteI want just a plain peach. No added anything. LOL I can't remember if I have any left, after almost 8 pounds of peaches. ha ha
I really think we need to have a World's Fair type meeting. We will all bring dishes we make from our countries, of course we will need to have drinks too-- so wines and/or liquor (lol) Also desserts and cheeses.
Oh I am hungry now. Off to get dinner and then also try and figure out Skype. I swear I'm going to get on there! I can't wait to hear all your voices. It is going to be so fun!
LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!
Cali
Peaches and strawberries and fruit in general, are all good for you. Don't stop (till you get enough). LOL
ReplyDeleteYes the Bon o bons are soo awesome. Just the perfect amount of filling and peanut butter creme with the chocolate and cookies. I may have to have you send me some more. LOL I bet they are cheaper there!
I'll get the right name of the other ones (they are SO awesome, especially if you like creamy gooey caramel in the center). Same with the cheese. The cheese was awesome. I love different cheese. (cheese snob).
