summer in my kitchen

I took 90 pounds of plums, apricots, and more plums to the Food Pantry today.  The lady who runs the place gave me a big hug as she does every year.  So after cutting, chopping, boiling, and canning for a lot of the weekend, I have 10 jars of plum-mango jam, 9 jars of apricot jam, 5 jars of Chinese plum sauce (yum).  We paid our annual fruit tributes to the street.  And now I will stop for awhile until the peaches come in.
