I think we’ve all gotten the memo that IT’S FALL OMG PUMPKIN EVERYTHING! But have the stores thought about those of us who might hate pumpkin? Definitely not. Now don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin. So much so that I end up making pumpkin bread the first cold (i.e. less than 70 degrees) day of the year. But sometimes, I just want to throw all of my canned pumpkin against the wall because I. Just. Can’t. Eat. Anymore. In that vein, I have concocted a truly magnificent baked peach recipe that all of you worn-down pumpkin veterans are sure to love.
