Jessica @ How Sweet says
August 23, 2010 at 9:09 amPeaches are SO good right now!
Michelle @ Give Me the Almond Butter says
August 23, 2010 at 9:09 amI’m so amazed how you are living with out a microwave. It save a ton of space though.
Wei-Wei says
August 23, 2010 at 9:10 amPeeeeeeeeeaches! Does it look a bit green because of the Vega? Strange…
Kath says

Nancy @ The Wife of a Dairyman says
August 23, 2010 at 9:13 amPeach cobbler sounds good:) Love the peaches. I just got an entire bag of them from my parent’s peach tree, big, sweet & juicy….enjoy yours!
Holly @ couchpotatoathlete says
August 23, 2010 at 9:14 amAh the Presidents! I used to love them, and this post makes me want to dig out their cd…
The smoothie looks delicious and would be perfect on a hot day like today!
Emily @ The Front Burner Blog says
August 23, 2010 at 9:14 amMicrowave comin atcha in just a few short weeks! 🙂
Melissa @ HerGreenLife says
August 23, 2010 at 1:21 pmThat sounds like good news to me. I’m all about the living without a t.v., but microwaves are just so darn convenient!
Marina says
August 23, 2010 at 9:16 amI adore ripe peaches, specially with hot oatmeal 🙂
Your header is really beautiful 🙂
Caitlin @ Right Foot Forward says
August 23, 2010 at 9:16 amPeaches (and nectarines, my personal favorite) are so tasty right now!

RhodeyGirl Tests says
August 23, 2010 at 9:28 amThanks for the memories! I am remembering ski trips in middle school listening to that album on my diskman with my very first boyfriend- Peter- who I was scared to talk to!!!! HA! We just sat on the bus listening to the album over and over again!!!!!!! Too funny.
Peaches right now are so so so yummy!
Sarah @ Sarah's Shaping Up says

Callie says

I love the new header!
Lauren @ 40Apples says
August 23, 2010 at 9:31 amCheers to a 90s classic!! Breakfast looks yummy. Bold move to go sans banana! (I have a fear of nana-less smoothies) I’m also rolling in peaches – peach smoothie last night, peachy snack at the moment… Love the summertime bounty 🙂
Christie {Honoring Health} says
August 23, 2010 at 9:34 amI’m back after a week in the OBX and just have to say it is so weird seeing you eat the same local foods (Twin Oaks Tofu!!) that I eat and go to the same places I like to go when I visit C’ville. I don’t think my mind has caught up with the fact that you live there now!
Marilou @ Mostly Healthy says
August 23, 2010 at 9:36 amThat was (and probably still is) my One Hit Wonder ever favorite song 🙂
Krystina says
August 23, 2010 at 9:36 amThat smoothie looks incredibly bright and refreshing.
Heather (Heather's Dish) says

[email protected] Flex-appeal says
August 23, 2010 at 9:58 amYum peaches! How was that carrot cake Lara bar from your last post? I can’t find it here yet. Also love your house, looks very cute!
Kath says
August 23, 2010 at 10:01 amI like it, but not as much as the PB + choco flavors
rebecca lustig says
August 23, 2010 at 9:58 ami loveee peaches– i’m trying to take full advantage of them while they are in season!! ahh, fall quickly approaches us.

Heather says
August 23, 2010 at 10:01 amI love peaches! I had never liked them until I lived in Georgia for two years – I fell in love with the peach.
Great start to your day!
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
August 23, 2010 at 10:10 amLove peaches!! They used to be my absolutely favorite fruit- now they’ve been replaced by bananas..but they’re still fabulous. 🙂
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
August 23, 2010 at 10:11 amAren’t peaches the best?! I keep buying them because they’ve been on sale all over the place lately… my freezer is stuffed full!
Jil @ Peace, Love & Munchies says
August 23, 2010 at 10:18 amLovin the peaaaches!
emily says
August 23, 2010 at 10:19 amHa, I used to love that song! Although it took me years before I understood what it was really about!
Jenny says
August 23, 2010 at 2:48 pmThat’s funny – I thought the same thing when I read this post. It was only RECENTLY that my husband and I heard it playing somewhere and I sang along… he looked at me and smirked. I knew I must’ve been singing about something that was not what I THOUGHT I was singing about! Kath’s post made me laugh because she also wrote “No bananas, just peaches.” Too bad EVERYTHING gets turned into something sexual these days… it was a catchy song!
Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
August 23, 2010 at 10:25 amI’m literally eating a peach as I type this- so good! My dad bought two dozen yesterday, so I might just turn into one 🙂 Hope you have a great day!
Britta says
August 23, 2010 at 10:25 amnow I’m going to have this song stuck in my head for the rest of the day!
Camille says
August 23, 2010 at 10:26 amMillions of peaches, peaches for free!
Tasty looking breakfast!
Tracy says
August 23, 2010 at 10:32 amDid you like the tropical flavored Vega?
Kath says
August 23, 2010 at 10:38 amIt was good, but my least favorite out of all their flavors
Becky says
August 23, 2010 at 10:40 amHAHA! Every time I cut up a peach for my daughter, I start singing: “Peaches come from a can! They were put there by a man!”
Love it.
Deva (Voracious Vorilee) says
August 23, 2010 at 11:37 am“In a factory down town” 😀
Stacey (The Habit of Healthy) says
August 23, 2010 at 10:44 amYour brekkie looks good but I think I’d find it strange eating a smoothie from a bowl!!
Meagan says
August 23, 2010 at 10:53 amKath! The blog looks good, though I really really liked how you had it before. Your house looks so nice – I really love that color purple. What does Matt think!? I’m glad you are liking your new place. I just moved back to school so I am adjusting to a new spot too. It’s going well. Enjoy thos delicious looking peaches!
Chelsea @ Strawberry Sweat says
August 23, 2010 at 10:53 amPeaches are awesome! I’ve got some I am waiting to ripen right now.
I may actually try the SIAB today. Maybe. 🙂
Ida says
August 23, 2010 at 11:05 amsuch a great song- and video! peaches are the best.
Megan (Braise The Roof) says
August 23, 2010 at 11:06 amI got that flavor in my swag bag- how is it?
Lauren says
August 23, 2010 at 11:06 amI can’t wait to see all the ways you will use your peaches. A chopped peach in a salad might make a great lunch option! 🙂 And I’ve been really into a chopped peach with some granola and almond milk for dessert.
Jackie says
August 23, 2010 at 11:40 amThere were some peaches at a farmers market in Manzanita Oregon that were the size of my face. I just stood there and stared for about 20 minutes.
Sarah says
August 23, 2010 at 11:46 amKath, I love your new banner. I was looking to see if Chia Seeds were on your wooden board and did not notice them. I think you might have started a Chia Seed revolution, since you have been eating them, I know I bought some to try and I am sure many others as too.
Kath says
August 23, 2010 at 1:40 pmI forgot them!!
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
August 23, 2010 at 11:54 amI don’t know why, but I haven’t been buying a lot of peaches lately. Gotta change that!
Angharad says
August 23, 2010 at 12:03 pmLove love love the new header! It looks really fresh and the colours pop massively.

Like the new header, too, Kath!
Laura @ Backstage Pass to Health & Happiness says
August 23, 2010 at 12:05 pmHaha that song… reminds me of middle school Forensics Team trips, we’d all sing that on the bus ride to our meets. Gotta love Presidents of the United States of America, what a great band.
Love the new look of KERF!
Jasmine @ Eat Move Write says
August 23, 2010 at 12:08 pmI’ve been eating tons of peaches lately too. Love them. They go bad SO fast though, so a smoothie is a great idea!
Chelsea (Chelsea's Chew and Run Fun) says
August 23, 2010 at 12:36 pmI’ve been a bit of a peach fiend as well as of late. I like to roll with the seasonal produce. I’m always impressed with your SIAB toppings, love the idea of blending coconut butter and sunflower seed butter!
lynn (The Actors Diet) says
August 23, 2010 at 12:50 pm*sigh* i need a vitamix !!!
Dee says
August 23, 2010 at 1:03 pmMmm yum! You’ve officially made me addicted to SIAB’s. 😀
stephanie says
August 23, 2010 at 1:11 pmi currently have a 2-3 peaches a day habit. i was on the eastern shore of maryland this weekend, and there are farm stands every few miles with the freshest, most delicious peaches i’ve ever tasted. obviously as shown by my new blog name, im quite a fan.
[email protected] Broad Bean to Runner Bean says

Laura says

Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
August 23, 2010 at 2:40 pmI adore peaches! So summery. 😀
Paige (Running Around Normal) says
August 23, 2010 at 3:04 pmSummer peaches are one of my favorite things!
The tropical tango Vega flavor intrigues me..is it as good as the Vanilla and Choco flavors?
Kath says
August 23, 2010 at 5:57 pmNot as good! But good.
Nicole, RD says
August 23, 2010 at 3:16 pmI haven’t heard that song in FOREVER! Love it! Peaches, too 🙂

kaila says
August 23, 2010 at 4:41 pmlove the new header btw! didnt have a chance to tell ya yesterday! I love hiking trails, the closest one is about 40 minutes from my house but it is in the cutest, quaintest town so its such a treat whenever we get to go. I am definitely an outdoorsy girl! I absolutely love being outside.
[email protected]://stacey-healthylife.blogspot.com/ says
August 23, 2010 at 5:53 pmI’m also in a peach comma right now. Peaches in everything. 🙂
Martha says
August 23, 2010 at 6:10 pmI don’t have a microwave either, and when I want to melt some peanut butter or whatnot, I do a little bit of MacGyvering, even though it might sound like more work that necessary…double boiler! I just boil some water in the kettle, pour it in a small bowl, and put my bowl of pb on top, and let it sit for a few. Softens up nicely!
Frederico says
August 23, 2010 at 6:30 pmLove that old PUSA song, makes me feel young again! I’ve been really enjoying my peaches & nectarines with cottage cheese, such a nice pairing.
Monica says
August 23, 2010 at 6:48 pmDid you get the peaches from Chile’s Peach Orchard in Crozet? That’s my favorite place to go–they have the BEST PYO peaches I’ve ever had 🙂
Janna (Janna's Keeping it Real) says
August 23, 2010 at 7:20 pmI just had the same song in my post Saturday! How funny! ‘Tis the season! :0)
dcwright02 says
August 23, 2010 at 8:11 pmi love that song! now if only we could get some good peaches up here in AK… produce, unfortunately, sucks in this state!

Nicci (Nifty Eats) says
August 23, 2010 at 11:14 pmI’m intrigued about the Fruit flavor Vega, I received the Chocolate one but need to try the Fruit. I hear it’s great.
Tehsina says
August 24, 2010 at 2:37 pmMmm I love your SIAB! Thank you for inspiring my breakfast this morning =)
Katya says
September 2, 2010 at 6:18 pmHi Kath. I just got myself a french press and was wondering which brands of coffee do you drink and if you can give me any tips on the brewing process? I was never too good with a regular coffee maker so I am hoping the less technology the better for me. Thanks. Love your posts as always.
Meredith says
August 15, 2011 at 7:30 pmI realize this is an old post, but I’m obsessed with peaches right now and that smoothie looks great! I’ll have to try that flavour of Vega!
