Peaches are my ultimate favourite summer fruit and bring back so many childhood memories for me. My dad used to bargain work for a peach from me; he placed the peach next to a crate of peas to be shelled or beans to be snapped. Only when I am done I could have my price: the peach. Now I buy them by the dozen and gorge on them daily, hey I work harder for them now than ever before! Check out my grilled peaches with a devilish boozy cream and honeycomb.
