I have never been able to pick fruit that is ripe. It either is mushy or flavorless. I have always wished that the stores had little helpful tips on how to pick the best fruit, but then they would all this bad fruit that no one would buy...but I digress. I have recently started buying these peaches from Costco that are canned. But these are very special peaches that are canned in fruit juice instead of syrup. So now I get to eat a delicious peach and have the juice for dessert. I luv it sooo much...and am very jealous of all you lucky people who own fruit trees.
Wow, this post is too long.
too long? ha ha. I wish more thought like you.
ReplyDeleteEver hear the song "Peaches?"
And for picking them in the store, if they are firm with just a slight give when you gently squeeze, they are good. I get them firm and let them sit out a day or two, then they're Perfect!
Happy P Day!
Mmmm...the peaches sound wonderful!

ReplyDeleteI am fortunate to live in a country where there are lots of tropical fruits and they are cheap and plenty.
ReplyDeleteMy coworker has a peach tree and brings in fresh peaches all summer long. It's such a great treat and I can't eat canned peaches anymore because of it.
ReplyDeleteI don't like the sugar syrup in canned fruit either.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds wonderful. Peaches in peach juice. I want some!!!! We don't have a Costco here though. Sad now!!
ReplyDeleteOoh peaches in fruit juice. Yummy. And yes, I curse those people with fruit trees too...oh wait, you didn't take it as far as a curse. Hmm, well, I stand by the curse.
ReplyDeleteI love a perfect peach but oh so hard to get.
