First Fruit of the Year

Last week I went to the store and saw that they had just put out the first picking of peaches.  I LOVE peachs. They are one of my many favorite fruits so I was excited. But when I went to pick them up they were hard as rock, Clearly not ripe. So I didn't buy any. Well I went back today, and they had even more crates of peaches out, and they were just perfectly ripe. So I bought some, along with some really red strawberries and avacados!

When I got back to my office, I cut up some strawberries in my yogurt, and bit into my first peach. And man oh man was it tasty!!!

SO delicious! I cant wait for the rest of the summer fruit to arrive! Nectarines, Plums, Apricots, Watermelon, Cantelope, really tasty honeydew, and all sorts of fruit that I look forward to through the dreary orange and apple winter. If only I liked oranges and apples. =)

And whats so great about them finally having good fruit in the stores, is that I can eat all the fruit I want, I am thinking that I am going to have lots of fun substituting my peaches and strawberries for the chocolate I have sworn off. Until next month chocolate, then we will be reunited!
