I'm inside here at noon time sipping my smoothie with fresh (frozen) strawberries but your pictures are enough for me to jump in the car and head for New York and your house!<br /><br />We can get organically grown peaches here at our co-op, but I can't even afford to buy enough for a fresh peach pie without taking out a small personal loan! (Sadness and woe.)<br /><br />Like a couple others (why didn't we get this done sooner?), I need to defrost and reorganize my big freezer, too.
