Ah the South… I awoke today to find a quart jar of peach brandy on my doorstep, a gift from a neighbor… and a note saying his tomatoes would be ripe soon and to come pick all I want.  I’ll take him a wooden spoon I carved.

(I want to know how whoever-it-was had peaches to make the brandy out of. We got ONE this year. And yes, I feel very lucky we got that one!)
