Guys. I might be in a pear hell. I will be so thankful for everything as we go into winter and spring but having to process all this fruit is exhausting by myself! I've got about 5 gallon freezer bags full of frozen pears, about 20+ lbs of pears and apples mixed cooking down on the stove to turn into apple pear sauce to can, and theres still a full rubermaid bin in my garage full. Hello weekend activity!
Hope everyones enjoying the nice weather this weekend!
WOW! From your own trees? Meanwhile, I made sauce last night with our tomatoes and highly doubt the rest on the plant are going to get to ripen. I definitely won't have enough to can like I'd hoped.
No, I wish we had a fruit tree. We did the long haul drive up to my MIL's last weekend in Monroe. She has a ginormous pear tree and then a much smaller one that we didn't even touch. Its way more than she had time for this year so we went up to pick and take it all (or at least what we could pick/reach). I gave half of it to a friend and kept the other half. I am down to about 1/4 of what I kept. I have no more jars or ziplock bags left though lol
