summer lovin'

One of the absolute best things about this time of year is all the ridiculously good produce floating around.  My twin sister and her three beautiful little girls came for a visit this week and we took them to the Farmer's Market yesterday.  Included in our purchases were a big yellow watermelon and a bag of peaches- both Texas grown.  We ate half the watermelon as an afternoon snack just a few hours after bringing it home.  But unfortunately the peaches turned out to be a little on the riper side than we expected.  Clayton and his Sunday-morning-juicing to the rescue!  He'd already planned to make homemade apple juice to go along with our breakfast feast of Uncle Frank's pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon.  So he was more than willing to take care of our super squishy peaches and leftover watermelon while he was at it.  The results were extremely delicious and also quite pretty;)

My favorite Lucky jars filled with peach, apple, and watermelon juices respectively!
