Farmers Market + Peaches = Jam

Oh yes, I've been stirring up a batch of fresh peach jam! Don't want to miss the last chance for the summer season. Gotta catch the local grown peaches while they're ripe and FRESH! Nothing beats fruit or veggies when they are in season and at their prime! So juicy that the farmers at the market are giving them away for free. (you know how they add a few extras to your bag after you've already paid) By the time you get them home and out of your hot sweaty car, they are oozing with wet juice and you have to do something with them right away! You just have to! You can't waste even one!

Doesn't it look good enough to plaster on a piece of toast!!!!?!!!

That looks really, really good. Warm toast and jam and tea... yummy! I've never made jam but, I do make pickles. But they're not that great with a cup of tea.

I made 3 sad little jars of peach jam this year because the weather in Texas was so rainy and we lost all our good peaches.
I am making a peach pie today but the peaches came from Wally World and not the Farmer's Market (where they have the really delicious, juice running down your chin type peaches).
Your peach jam looks scrumptious!!!
