Ode to a Peach

peaches

These peaches we got at the farmers’ market this weekend are unlike any I’ve had before. They are very firm, but supersweet and flavorful.

I prefer them to the more typical, softer variety, because I’m one of those people who’s funny about texture. Between the fuzzy skin and soft flesh, I just can’t bite into a peach…I can’t even think about it without cringing. Seriously.

But these, these are different. While I still can’t bite right in, I can eat the whole thing {and these are huge}…especially when it’s paired with a dollop of yogurt I thickened at home, and a drizzle of honey that just happens to have been raised in my hometown of Winter Park, Florida.

What a perfect late-summer breakfast.

*We’re having a light food week in here at Chez Thin Chef…eggs for dinner, and stuff like that, so nothing too exciting to share, but my 24, 24, 24 dinner is Saturday and there will be lots to say about that!

    LOVE the new blog! And, I have had several dreams about Timmy too. Sometimes I run into Katie and wonder if she’d think it was really weird if I told her that! Matt once, in a drunken state, told me he wanted to marry him. haha

    My co-worker and friend Carolyn gave me the link to your blog. I love it and will definitely be a follower. I am a round cash-starved baker with two blogs. I find blogging great therapy for these tough times.
