Well, I've got to get the peach cobbler out of the oven now. On our way home, we stopped by a roadside stand and bought a half bushel of fresh peaches. OH so good. And as if this blog could not get more random in topics covered, when I think of peaches I remember a time when I was in elementary school and visited my grandparents' farm in Oklahoma for a week. They had an orchard of peach trees that were just becomming ripe while I was there. They were not ripe yet, just almost. I was roaming the field, picking peaches and eating them right on the spot. It was such a thrilling feeling for me to pick a peach right from the tree and eat it, that I kept doing it over and over again. I ate about a dozen not-quite-ripe peaches that day and had the worst stomachache you can imagine.

Glad ya'll had a great vacation! Steve and I went to Galveston one time and really enjoyed it. I didn't think I would enjoy the Gulf after being on the Pacific Coast, but it was okay. I'll have to look into where you stayed sometime. Yumm! Fresh peaches, there is nothing better. I am so glad they are in season and hope I can get some soon at the Farmers Market downtown.
I've read about your peanutbutter cookies with a hershey kiss straight from the oven in your above post and now peach cobbler! Yummm! I need to visit you!
