Month: August 2024
August: always worth waiting for.
The glorious sun still shines, nights arrive a little earlier and morning takes its time coming around. If we are fortunate, the heat and humidity will dissipate overnight.
Yet, even as we sense summer slowly slipping away, we rejoice in the simple things that bring joy.
Ontario Peaches, fresh off the tree, locally grown, a true treat in every sense.
Colourfully fleshy and unimaginably sweet, a delicate taste like nothing else, ripe in-season peaches are now available at green grocers and farmer’s markets. Right on time.
A true taste of summer.
Peaches might be the only fruit where I will limit consumption to only the season. It is a thing I have. It’s always worth waiting for.
I sense a peach pie in my future.
