Eat a Perfect Peach Today!
Believe it or not, today is Eat a Peach Day — if you don't believe me, maybe the fact that you can send ecards celebrating it might persuade you. In honor of the day, I say you go out and have yourself a lovely unadulterated peach. First, you'll have to pick yourself a good one, here are a few tips on how to do that:
- Peaches are very delicate, so pick them up gently to avoid bruising.
- Select peaches that are slightly soft to firm when pressed, avoid ones with soft spots.
- Be sure to smell for fragrant peaches.
