It is peach season! The peach tree in the back yard decided to produce A LOT of fruit this year. Loren was very excited that we would get to eat peaches that could ripen on the tree and be juicy and delicious! We had enjoyed a couple huge peaches and then I finally hoarded three and found a recipe for this wonderful peach cake. I wasn't sure about it to begin with but I knew we had tons of peaches that would be ready soon so I thought why not?  It is amazing! Loren gave a box filled with peaches to some of our friends, and I have to admit I was a bit upset because we hadn't froze any or made jam etc. with any. (this tree is a bit of a miracle because its only produced peaches twice) But Loren just laughed and a couple of days later brought me a box over flowing with peaches. We had to pick them all at once because the birds had discovered the tasty snack that was in their tree.
SO...we sliced, bagged, and froze peaches and made seven jars of yummy peach jam. I still have peaches and I'm not quite sure what to do with them so I thought...I would make this peach cake again!
