Farewell to Summer: Peach Pie Redux

It's that time of year again. I've been in school for a week. The days are getting noticeably shorter. All of the BBQs and county fairs are winding down. It's the end of summer. Despite the heat, summer is my favorite season so I always mourn for a little bit as Labor Day approaches. This weekend I decided that instead of mourning, I would bake my farewell to summer: my last peach pie of the season.

Is there a more beautiful sight in this world than a bowl full of ripe peaches? I think not.

Although this was the same recipe I used here, it didn't turn out quite as well texturally. There must have been more moisture in the peaches than last time because when we cut into the pie, it went everywhere.


Oh well. It's still delicious, especially with some Purity 98% fat-free ice cream on top.

Good-bye peaches. Good-bye summer. See you next year!

I feel like that happens with a lot of pies I make...it still looks delicious to me! I'm excited for fall but I'm so sad to see the end of peaches!

The great thing about pie is that even when it's bad it's still good.
