Peach & Mallow

Against the sun-drenched, south-facing wall of the kitchen garden, a peach tree arches gracefully, its branches heavy with golden, sun-ripened fruit. Beneath its shade, raspberry bushes thrive, their plump, juicy berries tempting the cook to prepare a delightful pie for the Mistress of the house. All that’s needed to complete this scene of late spring bliss is the toasting of fluffy meringue to top the decadent dessert.
