Perfect Peach Pie
I love pie, it is one of my most favorite desserts. Pies can be sweet or savory, filled with fruit or cream, sometimes they are sweet and savory. They are very versatile and can be altered to the baker’s tastes. Apple pie is easily in my top 3 favorite pies, but this year peach pie has been edging its way to number 1.

Harvest Peach Freezer Jam
I love this time of year with all of the colors and the many tasty fruits and vegetables that are ready for harvest.

My first recipe was this sheet cake. It’s super easy to create and a crowd pleaser for sure. A…

Autumn Peach Cobbler
Every year toward the end of summer beginning of autumn, we make a trip to the local orchard for fresh apples, peaches, and pears. This year with how crazy 2020 has been, I decided instead to pick up a bushel of peaches from someone who picked them from the orchard already. While we missed doing our own picking, the peaches were amazing. Last night, I realized that we are down to our last dozen peaches and decided we needed some peach cobbler in our lives. Homemade peach cobbler is a must every year around this time. What are some of your favorite peach recipes? Do you absolutely love autumn and…
