Peach Honey

12 ripe peaches
1 orange
Sugar

Peel and crush the peaches.  Grind the orange in a food grinder.
Combine.  Measure volume and add an equal measure of sugar.  Cook
until thickened -- like honey.  Recipe said 20 minutes but I don't
think that comes close.   OK, that was the recipe.

Here's what I did:  Halved it because those were the last of the
peaches.  (Used half an orage, rind and all).  Ran the peeled
peaches through the fp with the coarse grater blade.  In the interest
of less sugar, I used only 3 cups of sugar to 4 cups shredded
peaches.  Wound up adding the last cup of sugar to it -- tasted
better and helped the consistency considerably.  They don't call
it honey for nothing.  Did I mention the *few* drops of vanilla
and almond at the end?  That, too.  Jarred, sealed, BWB'd for 10
minutes.
