It’s very well documented that I have a huge crush on lemon & thyme. So when I spotted this Lemony Thyme Peach Lemonade recipe in BHG magazine it instantly became 1st on the must-make list. Having fresh Georgia peaches at the Farmers Market was our little personal touch. Continue reading »

Peach, Berry & Basil Fruit Salad with Orange Vinaigrette.
Something special happens when the warm orange vinaigrette meets the sliced peaches and berries. Something really special. This wonderful Peach, Berry & Basil Fruit Salad is sweet and sexy enough to be served as dessert. I say let ’em eat dessert for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Continue reading »

I am thankful for Farmers’ Markets (where I scored these beautiful Georgia peaches) and friends with gardens (where I scored these picture perfect jalapenos). When peaches and jalapeños meet there is bound to be some sweet spicy love created aka Peach Jalapeño Skillet Jam.

When I discovered today was National Frappe Day I smiled out loud. It’s been years since I’ve had a frappe, yet a familiar fondness remains. I’ve shared before that I grew up just a corn field away from an iconic New England Ice Cream Shop. The very place I discovered my love for Dusty Miller Sundaes and Malted Peach Frappes.

On this day, I happen to have 10 peaches fresh from the Farmers Market. I’ll start by making Peach Buttermilk Cobbler. Continue reading »

Crisp Cod Cakes with Peach Basil Relish.
I had a moment yesterday. A really big moment. I was on my way to work via McDonald’s drive-thru when my phone rang. The voice on the other end said “Lib, I’ve got to do something.” I pulled my car into a parking lot and sat and listened.
