Whoa! Sounds like i better snap up those peaches and can a batch! I 
know i mentioned on this list how hard it has become to find those 
yummy spiced sweet pickled peaches in the stupormarkets around here 
the past few years.

I did find some recipes for them on the web that look legit.

Guess i gotta invest in some canning equipment... i'll have to 
research what i need, besides canning jars and lids... I'm pretty 
much a canning virgin. Haven't done any since i made hot lemon pickle 
and hot chutney from scratch in December 1967. They were quite tasty, 
but i have never repeated the process.
