Per his Saturday morning ritual, Zippy went to the farmers’ market for organically-grown peaches. The man loves his peaches. A few days ago while eating the last one from the most recent batch, he said (with tears in his voice), “This might be the last peach of the season.”
Well, he got another week’s reprieve. But I thought I’d best document these because there’s a very good chance this is the final haul of the season.
Seven little peaches.
Sweet dreams are made ofΒ this.
Love the seven little peaches and dreams ending!
And I feel like this about the ending of watermelon π season

One of my neighbors is like you regarding watermelon. Actually, she’s also very much dedicated to peaches. Hmm. Seasonal fruit seems to bring out the love in us. Here’s to more watermelon in your future!

well I am actually glad watermelon season is ending because I think the sugar was too much – I know it is all natural but I really need to watch it and on those hot days – it can sneak up !
and you are right about seasonal fruit – makes us appreciate it more to not have it 12 months

I agree. I’ve never had much success with canning peaches.

I can relate to Zippy missing his peaches — when the kids were home, my family used to go through a box of them — and then ask for more!

Whoa, that’s a whole lot of peaches! I remember being at a friend’s house when she had a case of peaches she wanted to share, so she walked around with a knife and offered us slices. She doesn’t remember doing this but it’s a vivid memory for me. The kindness of slicing and delivering them right to us. π
