Hi There,
I found this blog because I was searching Google images for a picture of a dog and a peach tree. I’m working on an article for our emergency veterinary hospital’s staff on peach pit poisoning in dogs. I think your photo is excellent and I read all the comments saying how cute it was. However, I hope you guys are aware that peach pits, along with causing irritation to the stomach and possibly causing an obstruction, contain compounds that get metabolized into cyanide after ingestion. This can cause death in dogs. Here is a link to some common foods that can be poisonous to dogs. http://pets.webmd.com/dogs/ss/slideshow-foods-your-dog-should-never-eat
Thanks,
Elaine

Thank you for this recipe. You are so lucky to have all these fruits in your garden!! It’s like a dream place!
In my parents garden, there are only a few cherries… But it was enough for my entry for this week summer fest: http://melaskitchen.blogspot.com/2009/08/summer-fest-part-2-with-clafoutis.html. I hope you like it!

LOVE your peach tree! looks like you’ve got a bumper crop! Peaches are a bit temperamental up here, and really only grow well when completely protected from the falling rain (they have to grow right up against the house, under the eaves). I know about the bumper crops though! We have a few apple trees and one pear. Its those moments when you think you can’t stand another _____ (fill in the blank fruit) that you come up with some incredible new way to use it! I see peach cocktails in my future!

We also have trouble keeping our dog away from the raspberry bush. As you probably know, dogs gingerly taking fruit, like little bear cubs, is often too adorable for one to muster a convincingly harsh tone.

Drink looks lovely. I just discovered a Peach Basil Sangria, which got us through the recent heat wave in the Pacific Northwest:

Wow, that peach tree is amazing and your drink looks so refreshing! We just planted two peach trees last year and picked a total of 4 peaches from them but I hope one day our trees may look like yours. As for that gorgeous looking Peach Cooler…..sigh. I had bought a bag full of lovely peaches I had intended on using in a peach pie but I think I need to try out that cooler of yours for our guests this weekend!

One of my favorite desserts that is too easy to call a recipe is my Appricot Tart at http://tinyurl.com/l82uun

Another summer favorite using peaches is my Almond Stuffed Peach recipe at http://tinyurl.com/lxk9jd

You just HAVE to love summer fruit!
