We have sooo many peaches right now. It’s really cool. Our tree has just been churning them out. They are oh so good and sweet and soft. Some of the early ones were a little tart and hard, but even they softened and sweetened up. This week Britton went to pick some and we came away with over 30 pounds of them! And there is at least that many left on the tree still!

Each bag is about 6-7 lbs!

I have brought one basket full to work, and we also made gift baskets for our family.

All the produce and flowers come from our gardens!

And still we have too much! So we have been eating lots of peaches for breakfast and for snacks/dessert. You will have to stay tuned to The Rad Dish and see my lovely peach cobbler. But here is a sneak peek:

What’s more is we are also planning our mini-trip to Meeker and Palisades next week for the Peach Festival. Talk about getting peached out! Oh, well, can’t complain too much about beauty and abundance! This is what we imagine our lives will be in Puerto Rico all year long, except instead of peaches it will be mangoes…and pineapples…and starfruit….and lemons….and bananas…and coconuts…and avocados…and….. I think I can get the  hang of this fruit farming thing! It’s just peachy! 🙂
