Mrs. Peaches will be back this week with her fabulous Alabama peaches.  Stop by and say hello and pick up a bag of the sweetest things you ever tasted.

the perfect peach

Perfectly ripe peaches will feel heavy for their size, yield slightly to gentle pressure and emit a sweet, heady perfume. Avoid any fruit tinged with green, as it won’t ripen. Read-to-eat peaches last three to five days refrigerated; firmer ones will soften when kept in a brown paper bag on the counter for up to three days.

We’d love to hear what your favorite peach recipe is. Please share! Maybe you prefer to just stand over the kitchen sink and eat them plain, with the juice running down your forearms. That’s a good peach!
