Peaches and time. Two things of which you either have too little or too much. I fall into the latter camp. I purchased a 40 lb. box the other week from my favorite Colorado peach purveyor to do some canning. While tagging the orchard with my recipe progress, I inadvertently entered — and won — their contest to receive another 10 lbs. I shouldn’t complain, but I will. This is a recap of my last two weeks.
Day 1: Raw peach, mmm tastes so good
Day 2: Gonna make a peach pizza, I’m so clever!
Day 3: How about some peaches with fresh whipped topping and bitters?
Day 4: Jarring 64 oz peach butter while sustaining third-degree jam splatter burns
Day 5-8: Forgot I had peaches, oh shit, wdid? They’re getting flaccid :(
Day 9: A peach galette, always classy
Day 10: SURPRISE! YOU WON MORE PEACHES!
Day 11: Eating more raw peach, skin on
Day 12: Peach smash cocktails (courtesy Chelsea N!), also PeAcH PiE cUz iT sO gOoD
