When I make pies, I think about the people I'm making them for, do you? I love to see smiling faces when I announce after supper, "Who wants pie?" When I'm rolling out pie dough, I don't usually make just one pie because my pie crust recipe
makes enough for seven shells so I always roll it all out and lay each crust into pie
plates whether I make them up into pies or not. I use what I need and freeze the
rest. I stack the unbaked crusts between wax paper and then wrap
them up in grocery bags before I put them in the freezer. It sure is handy to go grab a frozen pie shell when I want to whack up a pie or two in a hurry.
Today I made two fresh peach pies. To me, there is nothing like
the first fresh peach pie and nothing like a Colorado peach pie for deep
satisfaction and joy. We were supposed to have our vet and his helper come pregnancy test the heifers today, but they had truck problems and got delayed so we'll do that job tomorrow,
but for the now, Hubs and I will eat a slice of peach pie and celebrate our special day. Today is our anniversary -- 31 one years and still in love. Love and peach pies go together. (He's my peach after all.)
what a lovely way to celebrate your special day by eating homemade peach pie together.
ReplyDeleteHope you can relax and enjoy your day as it sounds as if you have a busy one tomorrow.
Congratulations to the two of you. Looks like a great treat for your anniversary dessert!

ReplyDeleteWe just celebrated our 30th last year. I made peach pie saturday. I blindbaked the shell and boy were those juicy peaches good with a dollop of whipped cream. Yours look just delicious.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary.
Happy Anniversary J & T x, we had our 30th yesterday. Your pies look heavenly Jody, do you blind bake the shells before you freeze them? Ann
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary J & T!! What a blessing you two are. Peach pie! Woohoo! They look scrumptious. take a bit for me. I canned peach pie filling for the first time last week. I gaze at those jars with excited anticipation of peachy-goodness.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Happy Anniversary to both of you! A peach pie from Colorado peaches...yummy, a treat for your special day! Our peaches from Colorado arrived recently....the sweetest and best! My daughter says I am a peach snob, but i wait for these peaches every year, none can compare!
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you from Kansas! Gail
Happy Anniversary to my favorite ranching couple! Oh girl, I would smile like....well I don't know what....for a piece of your peach pie. I would love to learn how to make good pie crusts from you in person. WAtch you do it... you know? You should do a vlog of that! (I am a genius. You should....and do one of bread making, too.)
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! I read somewhere that today, the day after, is Eat-a-Peach day. I just bought a case but they weren't ready. :-(
ReplyDeleteBaking a pie for your peach is surely a lovey thing to do!
G'day Gumbo Lily. Congratulations. I hope you have the most wonderful day. Your pies look scrumptious. Take care. Liz...
ReplyDeleteI love both of these last posts. Hmm. Must be the food :) Peach pie is my favorite pie, and probably on my top 5 best foods, but I don't get it often enough! Over on this side of the world, South Carolina peaches are the way to go, but yours certainly look perfect and delicious. Wish I could have a piece :) Aren't we glad summer is winding down? I know I am. Blessings on your ranch! Sounds like all is well.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteEven the picture of the peach pie is delicious.
Yum! Love pie! And happy anniversary!
