Week in Review: Peaches and the Vulcan of Love
I love this image — combining my love of Spock and Steve Miller Band! Happy Friday everyone! Last week was so crazy that I didn’t even get a chance to do my week in review post — and gosh I realized how much I enjoy doing these!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, yesterday was “Eat a Peach Day”. I love peaches and have enjoyed utilizing them in recipes such as our Peach and Blackberry Crisp, Bourbon-Seared Peaches, and of course our Peach Lavender Jam. Whenever I think of peaches, my mind returns to 1996 and the song, “Peaches” by ‘The Presidents of the United States of America’.
With that, I thought I would do a round-up of some of the terrific peach recipes from my fellow bloggers!
Peach Buckle from Cottage Grove House
Roasted Peach and Coconut Popsicles from in.gredients
Vegan Peach Pie from The Pancake Princess
Peach Pecan Ice Cream from MJ’s Kitchen
Peach and Tomato Gazpacho from Sparrow in the Treetop
Peach and Cilantro Salsa from Austin Urban Garden
Peach and Nectarine Crostata from The Painted Apron
Grilled Peaches with Goat Cheese and Balsamic from A Time to Kale
Raspberry Coulis (with uses peaches) from Now at Home Mom

It is always such a pleasant surprise to look in the ‘referrers’ section of my statistics and see where my readers are coming from. It is especially pleasant when I discover that I have been quoted and/or linked on someone else’s page. Today I was happy to discover that our post describing our Wedding Tree Planting Ceremony was quoted and linked in an article on About.Com’s Wedding Traditions Section!

Green Door Hospitality 
🙂 Great roundup of peach recipes Kenley! I just went through some of them & bookmarked them! I want to prepare something tomorrow and need to pick up some ingredients 🙂 & thanks again Kenley for the shout out! 🙂
wish you a beautiful weekend! 🙂
Thank you for the shout out! 🙂 I can not help myself to think of the PUSA too when I am making a peach dessert. Stuck in my head for hours!
HaHa! Loved Mr Spock. 🙂
When I was 12, my next door neighbor taught me how to make a peach cobbler and I have never tried another though I have learned that other fruits or berries work just as well.
Thanks for the shout out Kenley! Happy Eat a Peach Day!

Love that photo of Spock on the guitar, too cool!! Also, love peaches and have to check out those recipes,
Congrats on the About.com link up! It’s nice to see your own lovely traditions and ideas being shared–and maybe passed on to another happy couple. 🙂
This is hilarious, how you combined the two!! I thought I had an active imagination♥
Yum, I looooove peaches! Thanks so much for including my recipe in your round-up. I grew up in Seattle in the 90s so of course I often think of that Presidents song, too. 🙂 And CONGRATS on being mentioned on About.com! That’s so exciting!

Wow! congrats on the quote – that’s awesome!
This is great Kenley. “Things are going to start happening now”! (reference “The movie “The Jerk” and Nathan Johnson, lol). Congratulations on your About.com link, just excellent my friend. And peaches and Spock, love them both (for different reasons)! 🙂
Oops, I just realized I spelled his name wrong, Navin Johnson! It’s those little things that get to one. Have a great weekend coming up Kenley! 🙂
