“It’s very nice here you know, and it’s very lovely now, all pale brown……..The peach tree is covered with peaches.” V. Bell
In our dry, southern California Mediterranean like climate, it rarely rains in July. This morning we were blessed, waking up to the sound of a soft, summer rain. The intoxicating scents of white and black sage, artemisia californica, and laural sumac fill the air as raindrops dance on three almost ripe peaches.
I will gather the peaches in a basket this afternoon...and make a wonderful peach cobbler!
