Peach out, homie
Have you ever had a ripe South Carolina peach?
No?
Then my friend, in the words of an undertaker who once gave me a large quantity of said luscious local produce (no, not as a bribe, what on earth do you take me for):
You have not lived.
I'm reminded of a quote attributed to the great Ronald Reagan:
A people free to choose will always choose peach.
And then there was the sage observation by Shakespeare:
A peach is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
Swami Sivananda was nothing if not succinct:
Complete peach equally reigns between two mental waves.
While Eleanor Roosevelt offered this practical insight:
Ralph Waldo Emerson likewise declined to beat around the bush:
Nobody can bring you peach but yourself.
Thomas Jefferson, as ever elegant and erudite, summed it up thus:
Peach and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.
This weekend, wherever you may be:
Give peach a chance!
That's all I am saying.

All I have to say is that I'm jealous! We are told there will be no fresh peaches in Michigan this year because of the crazy weather we had this year. I love peaches and this is a hardship! Perhaps I need to come to visit!
You know what's strange? I like quotes but have never heard of any of these! :)
You silly goose! ROFL!
Funny Gir, sweet dreams and Peace to you. I want me some of those lucious, scrumpdillyicious, peaches and the wonderful almond cookies...............G.
Now I'm longing for some of my annual summer peach shortcake. Our peaches won't be ripe for ages. Maybe I can find some in Charlotte, eh?
I LOVE Peach...Everything!
Happy Sunday Girl!
