I'm Peachless, Just Peachless

The town is doing a bit of maintenance on a nearby road.  While I appreciate the warning about loose gravel, I'm amused by the placement of the signs.  I know that I don't really need to be told not to pass while only about 50 feet from a stop sign, not to mention that you will run out of road shortly after that.

The last few weeks have been all about peaches.  Many, many peaches.  DD has about a dozen peach trees on her new property, so there has been much picking and processing.  We have done frozen peaches, peach jam, peach butter, peach syrup, peach bread and peach crisp.  For something completely different, 4 loaves of zucchini bread were baked today.

I can honestly say that I am very glad that peach season is over.  There are no more peaches on those trees.  Being peachless is a good thing right now.

I have had peaches on the brain lately. What a great bounty you have!

I came here from the Yarn Harlot site, congrats on winning the book. I bet you get lots of new visitors today.

Please tell me what the swiffer covers sell for, that sounds like just the perfect thing! I hope you have lots of success at your craft fairs. I love the way ball band dish cloths look, and I hope you'll be making many more when you are sold out.
