Stonefruit season begins...

Stonefruit season has begun, and though we've been getting this California fruit for a number of weeks now, it doesn't truly "begin" to me until I take a bite of that first perfect tree-ripe peach. We are hopefully about a week away from the start of the BC cherries, moving into apricots, plums, nectarines, peaches, summer apples, melons, squash-- I can hardly wait!

Here's some photos of us appreciating the fruit in Blush Lane today!
California Stonefruit in all its glory!

Jeda enjoys the first tree-ripe peach of the season! I found it, perfectly ripe, in the bottom of the peach box. I couldn't resist cutting it up and sharing it around the store! We were covered in juice but thoroughly satisfied!

How gorgeous is that?!
