Movin' to the country, gonna eat a lot of PEACHES

 Peaches are pretty cool around here.
We live near the magic spot that grows super star peaches: Palisade, Colorado.

Peaches n Cream Soda from Palisade

I've shared a lot of peach goodness before...here....and....

here: Grilled Peaches with basil and swiss

...Vanilla Crepes with Peach Brandy Sauce

And now the new recipes for 2011:

Creamy Peach Cupcakes

This find was on pinterest.  

They sounded so light and fun.  

And I simply adored the way she put peach slices on top, 

so I did the exact same thing!

They are full of fresh fruit (and all that other sweet stuff)! 

  

I also made mini cakes with the extra batter.

I served them in hot dog carriers.  

 Umm, completely loved that idea. ;)

 

 The other new recipe is a healthier option.  My kids drink a lot of smoothies.  It's an ideal way to use up leftovers in the fridge!

Peaches n' Cream Smoothies

Simply add ice, peaches, nonfat plain yogurt, half and half, banana, and honey and mix in your blender.

Garnish with a peach slice of course.

We've taken them out of the can baby.

From Presidents of the United States of America band's song:

"Movin' to the country gonna eat a lot of peaches

I'm movin' to the country I'm gonna eat me a lot of peaches

I'm movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches

Movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches

Peaches come from a can they were put there by a man

In a factory downtown

If I had my little way I'd eat peaches everyday

Millions of peaches, peaches for me."
