August brings happy days if you're fond of the heat and humidity of Ohio. I can't say its on my favorite things list but I can say I love the fruits of the season. The tomatoes are ripening and biting into one fresh from the vines brings a yummy to the lips and memories of being a kid with a big ripe tomato, a salt shaker, and a shady spot to enjoy it! Jack and I headed to the orchard today and came home with donut peaches, sweet cherries, and early premium honey crisp apples. Jack threw in a few Amish fry pies just for more yum factor. Have you had a fry pie? So many flavors, so delish!
The donut peaches are shaped like little donuts and have a wonderful flavor!
Fry pies are a treat and easy to eat! This heat is keeping me indoors so cleaning is on my to do list. We got our 2nd shingles shot on Saturday and its had a few side effects that made us a little under the weather yesterday. Feeling a little better today. If you've had that vaccine did it bother you? We didn't think of taking it until my brother got a horrible case of shingles in the Spring. I can put up with a little discomfort instead of what he had to deal with! Anyways, all's good this summer day and we have some good yummy stuff to enjoy! Carry on August!

Never heard of donut peaches but they look cute. We had peaches for dinner tonight. Hubby made bbq chicken with a peach sauce. It was yummy. Janice
My mom and dad (and the rest of my family) were/are HUGE fresh tomato fans...Me, not so much. (Just another reason my dad always said they brought the wrong baby home from the hospital. LOL). Looks like a very successful orchard run! It's hard to believe apples are ready already. And peaches...yikes. I don't think I've had one in years. But peaches and cream were a summer staple for us when my mom bought crates to can.
