Beautiful peaches - they look so juicy. Did you grow these. I'm so jealous. My peach tree has not produced anything worth eating in 2 years.

We get our peaches from a grower in Missouri.

Tell me that is not your tree? Oh I am so jealous.....apples just don't have the same impact.

We always ate peach pits as kids, my Mom would slip them into the canning jar for flavor. Maybe that is why we all have that extra arm....

I never ate a peach pit evidently! he he. Didn't know that. But, peaches are just about the prettiest and most enjoyable fruit you can eat. I love them. my favorite is hot buttered biscuits and cooked peaches. Yum, yum.

They look absolutely delicious. I can almost smell them.

Oh, they sure do look luscious, Paytsy! I have a huge peach tree myself, and it's loaded this year. But my peaches aren't quite ready yet. I figure in about 10 days, they will be. Then I'm going to be busy!

Are you canning some peaches? Making peach pie? peach cobbler? Or maybe all of the above?

Hugs,
