Those first golden, juicy peaches that taste like summer. In a good year they are so juicy the peaches you eat whole and sun warmed are designated as "over the sink" food or "eat it outside" food.I haven't lived here long enough to have my own peach trees,but the vendor at the farmers market becomes my new best friend thePatsy Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03011316396999867141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30849155.post-18355631643614808752008-06-14T20:43:00.000-07:002008-06-14T20:43:00.000-07:00I hope you take some photographs of the first care...I hope you take some photographs of the first carefully-chosen plum before you begin to enjoy its goodness.

It sounds just a wee bit wicked, Leslie ;-]<BR/><BR/>We never had too much fruit from any of the Illinois trees, but the ecstasy of the first tomato was often replaced by thoughts of what to do with a glut of tomatoes.
