Good Morning everyone.  Tamy here filling in for Martha K who was filling in for Kris on Simple Saturday, who had originally traded with Martha MM.  So sense it was already so complicated, I’m bringing you a not simple, but not complicated recipe for the upcoming holiday weekend.  It’s perfect for outside eating and celebrates the fruit of the month also, peaches!  I hope you enjoy it.  We make it quite often and really have been enjoying going bunless.
