Ahh, summertime! by rhoing

Ahh, summertime!

Fresh fruit. I didn’t have a lot of fruit pies growing up, so it’s fortunate that I married into a family that really enjoys them. This. Is. My. Favorite. Blueberry Peach Pie. I like it so well, I peel and slice all the peaches. I think one of the secrets is getting the peach slices really thin, so I try to get at least 16 slices from each peach: halve the halves and get at least four slices from each quarter.

I happened to be texting with a former student when this went in to the oven. I texted her this photo and she said, “That’s the most perfect homemade pie!”

I replied, “That because it’s just for us, not for company!”

It’s not entirely homemade, but it’s not about the crusts anyway.

Selective coloring (Black & White filter and painting out the pie) to remove the distracting colors of the tablecloth.

Sounds delicious. I love them both individually.

Talking about pie in another group yesterday. My friend, a teacher, talked about how she'd buy pies and take to her classroom when they got to fractions in math class. Your pie looks delicious. It's not a treat that I am skilled at making but am very skilled at eating.

This does look delicious! I've had both fruits separately, but never together! I'll have to try it sometime!
