Well. it certainly has been a while since the last post...
The ladies are starting to come out again after the summer.
We are having our Fall lunch  @ the Harvest Golf Course Friday,  Sept. 14
@ 11:30.....  Hope to see everyone out....

I have been busy making Peach Chutney.. I know some of you have asked for the  recipe so here it is.  So good I made 2 batches this year!!

                           Fabulous Peach Chutney

 8      cups peeled, pitted & sliced peaches
2       cups apple cider vinegar
3       cups white sugar
1       med. onion, finely chopped
1       cup raisins
1//4   cup chopped crystallized ginger
1       clove garlic, minced
2       tsp. table salt
1/2    tsp. ground ginger
1/4    tsp.  cayenne pepper  (optional)

Measure all ingredients into large pot.  Stire over medium heat until sugar dissolves
Bring to a boil, stirring frequently for 45 - 60 minutes. until thickened.
Stir more often near end of cooking time so as not to scorch.
Fill hot sterilized pint jars to within  1/2  in. (1 cm.) of top.
Place sterilized metal lids on jars. & screw metal bands on securely.
For added assurance against spoilage, process for 6 mins. in a boiling water bath.
Makes  3 - 4  pints.

Yummy light ginger flavour....Burnt-orange in colour ...  good with pork, duck. or
spoon over cream cheese & serve with crackers!!!
