Then several more hours of blanching, cooling and bagging peas. Now they are ready for the freezer. My feet are ready to be propped up!

Boy, do they ever look good. Hhmmmmm
ReplyDeleteWhat kind are they? Can't see too good. Looks like black-eye.
I'm JEALOUS!!
ReplyDeleteThey look good! I don't think I will be getting any this year since I think most of daddy's garden dried up from lack of rain. I do still have a few in the freezer though!
ReplyDeleteMy mom called them Cream peas. The feed store where I buy the seed calls them cowpeas.
ReplyDeleteI pick them while still moist and a little green. If allowed to dry and then be picked and shelled, they are black-eyed peas!
ReplyDeleteWow! They sure do look good!! It is a LOT OF WORK puttin up peas but they are sooooo good too! It will be worth it!!
ReplyDeleteHugs!!
Peas are a lot of work- but so worth it! They look delicious, Lorilee!
ReplyDeleteFor a long time I thought I didn't like peas. Then I tasted them fresh shucked - it was like a whole different vegetable! These look yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou brought back memories of shellin' peas on the porch with my Auntie. I know they will be delicious.

I may be a total basket case, but I love shelling beans and peas, and snapping beans. I think it goes back to when I was little, rocking along with mama and helping with this chore..and listening to the old stories. I love gardening and everything about it..
ReplyDeleteAlso, I came to tell you I have an award waiting for you to pick up over on my blog....that is,if you accept awards. I so totally understand if you're award and tag free.
Have a most wonderful weekend....
Wow...I never plant enough peas to get that many.
ReplyDeleteBut I only like peas raw right off the vine...
i think shelled peas are so pretty,, kinda weird huh? I've been picking/shelling peas from my dad's garden myself. Its been so hot and we need rain though and some are starting to dry up. Hopefully they'll get a good shower soon.
