Summer Peaches

Two of my favorite things from summer here are picking peaches from a local farm, and eating them.  The peach orchard where we go is perhaps 7 miles from our home (and near where I often ride my bike on the pleasant country roads).  Over the years I often bring visiting grandkids with me.

Here is a link to a cute video I took of Miriam and Magdalena in 2010.  I think Magdalena is laughing due to the grass tickling her feet.

M&M Peaches

I love adding peaches to my breakfast cereal or pancakes.  And making smoothies with them.  The peach harvest season is much too short.  I did freeze some for later use, but regret I didn’t freeze a lot more.

  1. Mmmm peaches. I miss the fruits of summer, but then we get juicy citrus in the winter. The ‘black hole’ of fresh fruit seems to be in mid-spring. I mean, we can always get it from the grocery store, but there’s nothing local and fresh available then.
