* image These past few months have been busy for our family, especially since our oldest joined a local swim team. Between juggling our work schedules and balancing school with practices... we're all pretty wiped out. Although it's a lot of work, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. Preparing the holiday meal for our family fills my heart with joy, and I can't wait to get started. To make things easier for me, I don't deviate much from our first Thanksgiving as a family. The dishes I make are familiar ones, and the recipes for them live at my fingertips. Keeping the same menu year after year means I don't have to spend time researching recipes or planning a new one. Here are my tried-and-true Thanksgiving recipes, as well as my prep timeline for the big day!
This peach cobbler comes together so easily and tastes so delicious, you're going to want to make two of them at once!

There will be times when this blog reads more like a mommy blog and less like a food blog. Especially given the activities and events of my day-to-day. For weeks, I've been writing our sweet baby boy's birth story post in my head. Then, once I was out of the hospital and home again, I started drafting a post about being a NICU mom.
For today, though, I want to swing things back around to the reason I started blogging in the first place -- food. This recipe post for peach cobbler has been in the queue for two years... It was one I started two summers ago, back when I was in the thick of making homemade baby food for Caroline.
Peach season is one of our favorite times of the year. Because we live so close to the farm stand of one of our local orchards, we tend to keep fresh peaches on hand all the time. We'd be content to eat them as is, but, in this case, I had purchased more than I needed to make peach purée. I had to come up with a way to use the extra peaches before they spoiled.
Now homemade peach cobbler was something I'd been promising Stephen I'd make for a long time... so it seemed logical to make good on that promise and turn those extra peaches into a summertime dessert.
The fresh peaches and brown sugar created a rich sweetness that wasn't overpowering. And we loved the slight spiciness in the background from the ground ginger. In fact, we loved it so much, that the cobbler was gone in less time than it took me to make it.
Okay, that's not true... But it felt as if it disappeared that quickly!
If you're looking for a way to use up those peaches on your kitchen counter, then definitely give this easy homemade peach cobbler a try. I promise you... You won't be disappointed!
