Waaah ... but yum

I bought a bag of peaches and nectarines at the Farmers Market on Saturday. They were perfectly ripe on Monday and I'd been eating them here at work. This morning the remaining few are way over-ripe and starting to go. I think I should clean up what's left and eat them w/ice cream for lunch.

Suggestions:

1. Keep them in the paper bag at room temperature if they need additional ripening. Once they're ripe, but them in a plastic bag/container in the fridge. They'll keep much longer. Apples, for example, can keep for two months or so -- sometimes even longer.

2. Use them for home-made smoothies, too. Great for lunch or breakfast. Put fruit, milk, yogurt, ice in blender. Blend. Pour. Drink. Yum.

3. Microwave with brown suger and a bit of butter, use as a syrup over just about anything - ice cream, waffles, raisin bread, you name it.

The best part of summer is the fruit!
