An unwelcome Facebook update sullied my otherwise lovely afternoon. “We are sold out of peaches today. U pick apples start Sunday, September 6 from 11-5.” My heart ached. Sold out of peaches so soon? How could this be? I’d only had a dozen or so all season, and over half of them were disappointing beyond…
Peachy – {Almond Tart with Stone Fruit and Lime Meringue}
Grandma F once complimented how smoothly I was able to cut paper. I was with my cousins at her dining room table, doodling and crafting with the clunky uncoordinated hands of my 7-year-old self. I don’t remember what we were making, but I was damn proud. It’s been 17 years, and I still can’t use…

On the whole of the things,…

There’s no weight left on my feet, and, even still, my left heel feels like it’s going to split. Taking stock of…
