::the kitchen table at the moment::
The weekend brought us outside today, thankfully, things that are so not funny have been making us laugh hysterically around here lately... sure sign of heat induced cabin fever. So we took advantage of some clouds today and hopped on over to Wright's Orchard and dried flower barn to pick the peach haul for this summer. We sought refuge from a passing shower in the barn and snapped these beautiful images of the dried flowers...

... visions of fall wreaths danced through my head while Rob tried to look interested in dried hydrangeas... Anyway, you're wondering where the pictures of the peach haul are, right? Well, my camera took the opportunity and ran out of memory space - I think electronics are conspiring against me. These pictures of the AMAZING peach haul courtesy of Rob...
...So we picked about 60 pounds of peaches... is that a lot? When spread out on the kitchen table to ripen, it looked like a lot... While Rob hauled the said 60 pounds of peaches up hill in the rain, I felt bad for him like it was a lot. We have so many plans for these fabulous fruits of summer... pie filling, jelly, salsa and chutney. We're hoping that a little work now will bring back this moment of summer in the long, dark days of winter which makes it totally worth it, don't you think? I do too. Anyway, look for some Nuclear Containment Vessel pictures of these beauties being canned in the next few days. I hope wherever this summer weekend takes you is as joyful as a perfectly ripened peach enjoyed in the middle of an orchard with your favorite someone who carries things when they're too heavy.
