the hummers moved south

After a long hot summer trying to keep the hummingbird feeders filled, the only thing I will miss from the summer is the chirp of the hummers. If you've never lived near a large group of hummers, you may have missed their distinctive little voices, but I've been blessed. I saw one last evening but none this morning. We'll leave the feeders out for another week. Here's a snippet of what I like about summer. Happy autumn one and all. p/ap

Peach Pie

Hello from the farm west of Lake Fegan.
Weeks ago I saw an ad in the Yates Center newspaper advertising peaches for sale. I ordered a box and waited... and waited some more. Finally the call came, be there at 7 AM on Sunday morning, pick up the peaches, and if there are extra boxes, I could buy more... I could smell the aroma of ripe peaches when I drove in their driveway... I bought 3 boxes and kept one. Lucky for me that Bud is a baker... I peeled, pitted and sliced and Bud baked. Here's our pie proof!
It seems that in Yates Center, people do not use round aluminum pie pans, so we used the available square cake pan... pie still tastes fine. Just ask Bud. :)
