what do you do with a bunch of peaches?

well the title says it all.  so thomas at the farmers market about went into caniption fits at the farmers market on saturday when he saw the PEACHES and then bought a whole bucket full of them.

i don't like peaches.

so last night he looked at the peaches that he has been eating since saturday and said, "those peaches need to be eaten by tomorrow, or something needs to be done with them.  why don't you make me a peach cobbler?"

i don't like peaches because they are slimy and fuzzy and gross.

i looked at him and said ok.  i dug through all of my tarte and pie recipe books and came up with a recipe i thought would work.  and so, today, i spent hours making a crust, peeling and slicing peaches, making a homemade filling/pudding, and baking a tarte aux pêches.

i don't like peaches because they are slimy and fuzzy and gross and the flavor really does nothing for me at all.

so this evening... thomas is eating peaches.  in a tarte.  and i am going to watch him.
