I live in Cincinnati and just brought home some medium sized California peaches from our supermarket. My daughter declared them absolutely perfect. I am from NY but grew up in southern California. I worked at a surf shop in Huntington Beach and would pack a humungous peach for lunch that I would consume with a half pint of half and half, right out of the carton. WOW...are your arteries screaming yet? It was simply the best. We get peaches here from Indiana at our local apple farm. With late frosts, it can be a little dicey, but I'm trying to buy relatively locally grown produce. There is nothing like fresh local stuff without wax on it, reducing your carbon foot print and supporting your local CSA's and small farms.
