Hurricanes & Peach Pie

My local farmer's market had a Hurricane Irene special on peaches this week: "Buy them now, before they blow off the trees." Today, the storm hit. We're all fine, but going a little stir crazy being trapped in the house all weekend.

I decided to test out Grammy's Peach Pie recipe. It came out delicious!


Here's the link to Grammy Gertie's Peach Pie recipe.

Summertime at Grammy's always included pies. We're a little late in the season for peaches, perhaps, but still delicious.
