My name is Kelly, and I am a peach hoarder. No, really! I love peaches as you may well know. Last year – as peach season came to a close – I got a bulk package of dry peaches to get me though the winter. I love them because they are sweet, chewy, and terribly [...]

My kitchen is a very happy place right now. After summer, fall is my favorite season for cooking. Autumn vegetables, fruits, and spices are among my favorite things to cook with.
