I ate with my Dinner For Eight group from church last night. I love the style of the woman who hosted. She’s got an elegant sixties vibe going. Before we ate, we all had cocktails mixed from the bar. I made my first Manhattan. I was just okay. Not bad, but not good.
I was assigned to bring the salad. I was excited because I thought maybe I could use peaches. My peach tree in my back yard is loaded with small peaches. While working in the garden the other day I ate one. It was delicious.
I searched for a salad recipe that used peaches and found one. It’s spinach, peaches, toasted pecans, and poppy seed dressing. It was tasty.
The dinner went late! I thought retired people were supposed to be “early to bed” kind of people. But in spite of the late hour, I had fun. It was delicious food and great company.
Ha! Your hand is so grubby! You are a true laborer.
That salad looks fantastic! Mmmmm….. delicious salad…..
Dang…I’m gonna have to check these sites earlier…I thought the same thing Lauren…I didn’t realize peach trees had so much dirt in them!
Geez Brad…you’re becoming a farmer & a chef of fine cuisine! But I bet you can’t put eyeliner on straight can ‘ya?
Those are beautiful peaches! And right there in your backyard.
You know this was stuck in my head all day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvcohzJvviQ
