HAVE YOU EVER HAD PEACHES FRESH OFF THE TREE?

I have over the past several days, and I picked them myself.  Some were a little over ripe from the sun, but however mushy or bruised in parts they were all-systems-delicious. It’s like those “Maverick” pears from Harry & David, the scuffed-up ones. My parents used to send out New Year’s gifts of the perfectly-complected pears but buy “Mavericks” for our own consumption! Nobody complained.
