What a great idea! Thanks for the suggestion. Do you cook the peaches before you add them or just add them fresh?

Hi Katy! I am so glad! I hate throwing anything out, especially when I just spent a small fortune on them. But it was good on oatmeal, wasn’t it?! So, where’d you get yours…I bought mine at Costco. Since then I popped up to Fresh Market and dropped an even bigger on the organic ones, but I could pick each one individually and thus far they are good.

We recently got some mealy peaches (perhaps from the same bunch as yours) and I was reluctant to throw them out. This was fabulous and so simple, and wonderful on oatmeal!

The best taste comes from the oldest peaches. We used to go to farmers markets and ask the peach sellers for the ones they put back because they were old. The old peaches just dissolve through out the ice cream giving an unbelievable taste.

Oh, I hadn’t considered that! Grits are basically boiled cornmeal, but not a finely ground cornmeal…more coarse. The closest product is probably polenta, though it may be a finer texture than grits. But at the end of the day, I don’t think it would effect the taste and experience of your Shrimp and Grits.

Thanks for the note Liz! I love that Chinese Wave pattern…I can only imagine how beautiful your scarf is.

And I’m tickled that your hubby and son enjoyed the Apple Spice Bread…it’s a nice prelude to fall, isnt’ it?

Have a wonderful day, my friend.

Hugs,

Lynn

I’m making a scarf with this stitch, and I love the h oneycomb effect it’s having as I knit it up. Also, I made the Apple Spice Bread you shared last week and it turned out beautifully!! My husband and son, who is visiting us now, both loved it. And very easy to put together.

Liz
