I was never a real big fan of peaches until about two years ago, i made someone i was dating a peach pie and the bottom crust was likely the best one ive ever made and that pie turned me in to a real big peach boi ever since. peach ice cream. Cobbler. Peach upside down cake. Grilled peaches. Peach preserves on almost burnt toast for breakfast makes me happy. Peach tarts. And fucking peach pie? I cant get enough. Its replaced key lime as my favorite desert ever.

Its the beginning of texas peach season and last weekend when i went camping at a sorta nearby lake, i stopped at a roadside stand where this older than dirt farmer sells local peaches, pecans and onions. I bought two bags of peaches; one Early Flavorich, and one Dixieland, and ate the whole bag of Dixieland peaches and a couple of the Early Flavorich while i was camping. I saved some so i can make a peach pie ive been slobbering over like a dog for the last week-ish. Tomorrow when i get off work im prepping peaches and baking a pie. I am staying up til it sets so i can have peach pie and i dont give a rip what time it happens to be at either. I might even make ice cream to go with it if i can bribe my daughter to help with pie and ice cream.

Real peachhead hours whos awake? Anybody have a particular variety they're fond of? Does anyone prefer early season over late season? Or is it just one of those things nobody really cares about and im the only one acting like a dumbass for fruits?

Thanks for coming to my peach talk i appreciate it.

Peaches are wonderful, love a good peach cobbler in peak season. One of life's great pleasures.

Peach flowers are gorgeous, and they smell amazing, too. Prunus gang always winning

You may be able to find peach Nehi. It's really surprisingly nice.

I always miss Texas most in late February early March. I've never been a fan of grape soda, but the mountain laurels smell just like it and it's wonderful. I never truly understood what "air smelling sweet" meant until I lived in the hill country.

this NEEDS to become a tagline

You just made me realise I've never had peach pie, it sounds like it might be really nice with custard or something like that. I've only very recently opted in to the idea that fruit can be cooked (fried apple or banana? Delicious!) so I suppose the next step is making as much fruit as possible into a pie. Do you think it could be possible to make a kind of "fruit salad" pie? Or would the taste of all the different fruit just mix together in an unpleasant sort of way?

Peach cobbler is amazing with ice cream or frozen custard.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Im not sure. Im curious as to how i'd go about it. Maybe some sort of curd as a base or something. It could work i think, depending on what mix of fruit you use and how its all put together.

The flat peaches (or paraguayos, as they call them) are really great where I live

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

There is a small grocery store near me that carries 'exotic' fruits and they have flat peaches on occasion. Ive liked them the couple times ive been able to get them.

🎵Peaches come from a can🎵

🎵They were put there by a man🎵

The only POTUSA I support, btw. freedom-and-democracy I don't know if they still do it, but after Weird Al put out his parody song "Gump", POTUSA would add the "Run run, run run, now Forest run!" bits to their live performance of Lump.

Good job, everyone.
