the garden vision i had all spring as i was planting and transplanting is finally starting to happen. sparsely planted baby plants are now crowding each other out. things are recovering from the herbicide hay mulch with healthy new growth. now it’s time to just sit back and watch it grow. too hot to do any yard work anyway!

June 7th, 2010

just bought the first of the season’s peaches. these are from south carolina. here’s a recipe so easy to remember and so delicious,it’ll instantly go into your repertoire. you can amaze your friends when you shamelessly throw the stick of butter on top before you stick it n the oven.

recipe :
cut up peaches (or other fruit) and fill a 9 x 12 brownie pan about 2′.
mix together: 1 cup flour,1 cup sugar, and 1 cup milk.
pour over the peaches.
throw a stick of butter on top.
cook at 400 degrees for one hour.
serve with ice cream, plain yogurt, or evaporated milk.
super yummy!
