Peaches!

My older brother is quite the peach farmer, and he picked some peaches for us.  Darling husband picked them up for us.  (They weren't too far from his regular route.)
 
I cut up some for us to eat fresh and to some I added a little half and half for dh and ds to eat in the mornings.
 
I put some in the freezer.

 
I got a little adventurous tonight and made a peach-mango salsa.  In my eagerness, I picked the first two banana peppers before they were completely mature, but, no matter, they went into the salsa anyway.
I even made a pie (with a store-boughten crust--oh, how the mighty have fallen!).
 
Peaches have to be one of the best flavors and aromas around.  Life is good when you're eating fresh peaches.

  1. Ahhhhh, I love peaches. Just looking at that box I thought of a Camp Meeting in Missouri. On the way out to MO we passed thru Kings MT and bought a bushel box of Peaches. At the Camp ground, at camp meeting we placed them in the center for everyone to use. There were so many compliments on NC Peaches.

    When I was little I liked them off the tree with just a touch of red, making them hard, I liked that. But over vanilla Ice cream, I do like them soft and sweet.

    The pie looks delicious...

    1. I have to ask if you ate them peel and all when you were a kid.
