Vanilla bean ice cream on peach and lavender crisp
“Indulge in the enchanting symphony of flavors with our Peach and Lavender Crisp, crowned with velvety Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. A dessert experience that transcends the ordinary.”
We're easily amused.
We should say easily amused.
Like when the iPhone first came out circa 2007, and you could hold your phone up to the radio, click on Shazam, and it would tell you who was singing the song; well, we clicked Shazam like crazy. We must have tapped that sucker at least 67 times because we thought it was a flipping miracle. We seriously felt like Helen Keller learning how to spell. You could imagine our giddiness when FaceTime came around. O. M. G.
We're also easily amused with our garden this year. Every time we go outside with Mr. B to check on the status of the garden and see that nothing has bit the dust, we become jazz-hands excited. Like we shout twelve octaves higher telling Mr. B that there appears to be a bud. An actual tomato bud! BABE! Look, a potential tomato! Mr. B is generally not as amused.
Well, apparently being easily amused is working on our garden because not only will we have to make caparese salads for the next hundred years, but our herbs are kicking butt, too! A current fav is the Aristotle basil because it looks like a brain full of secrets and serious thought. We are also madly crushing on the lavender because she’s a beaut and smells standout.
We wish you could have been there when we decided to put lavender into this peach crisp. Holy bonkers. You would think it would have been the first time we discovered seamless unmentionables. Yes, this peach crisp goes into the fruit dessert category. Baby steps. We're getting better at allowing those two fellows to play together in the same sentence.
But really, this crisp is seriously insane. Peaches are in season right now and let us tell you, go buy yourself buckets of these juicy suckers because they taste like the blue sky with honey on top. Plus, the touch of lavender with melted vanilla bean ice cream, you will be MEGA amused, our friends.
