My mom brought back eight boxes of peaches from Utah with her last week, after driving my younger sister out to college.
Nothing compares to Utah peaches. Nothing. Don't believe me? Come to my house and try one. We've still got three boxes left.
The intense peach flavor is deliciously intoxicating. We worked like mad women to get them preserved. We made homemade peach ice cream, freezer jam, cooked jam, and good, old fashioned bottled peach slices. Near the end of the endeavor, I admit, I was tiring of the sweet smell, the stickiness, standing on my feet for hours at a time. But looking at them all neat in their rows, I can't but be proud of my "babies." All 40 of them.

When Taber Works the Night Shift...
...I can indulge my inner night owl and stay up till 2 in the morning.
...I can watch my shows like Dancing With the Stars and Parenthood and enjoy them.
...I can sleep diagonally in our queen size bed.
...I can work on crafts and projects, and occasionally, like last night, finish a long-overdue one.
