Notes
Peach season is one of my favorites. There’s nothing like walking by a stand of ripe peaches that are ready to be eaten immediately or dressed up a little. Recently, I walked past my local grocer’s (Market Street) fruit stand and couldn’t resist their Sugar Tree Peaches. Instant inspiration hit. Serve these peaches by themselves or with vanilla ice cream (click here for recipe), angel food cake (click here for recipe), yogurt, vanilla bean whipped cream (click here for recipe) or even salads.
