Hi friends! I think I’ve just about recovered from our action-packed (and completely amazing) trip to Hawaii last month.

I can just feel the days of fresh peaches lining the grocery store rows slipping away, and I’m holding on with all my might. Don’t leave me, little guys!! But try as I may, they’re going, and I know this just might be my last awesome-peach hurrah of the summer. I’m trying to be cool about it. (Cue dramatic sobbing.)
