The year moves in order -- it was peach buying day

What is strange is that I bought my first peaches last year on this day, 
and without realizing that bought my first peaches today! I do love those
beauties, and this is one of my favourite paintings of the precious fruit.

Every year Steven waits until a farmer at the organic market has their peaches
for sale, and then buys enough to can peaches for the entire winter. They are
an amazing treat mid-winter. He doesn't use sugar, so they taste exactly like
they did the day he did the canning process. 

It is very hot here, and I went out to buy paint for a work I'm in
the middle of producing. I had great advice from Greg at my favourite 
art store, and went home with supplies and a bunch of new ideas.

Have a loving your life day.
