The peaches this year are incredible so to use some of the extras we picked I put them in a cheesecake. This cheesecake is quick to put together, the hard part is waiting for it to cook and cool, then chill for the very best flavor and texture. It's creamy and has a great peach flavor!

“Fenway” passed away on 2/3/2021. For the last year she tried to teach her husband of 42 years how to cook like her. Although I will never be as good of a cook as her she did pass on her passion for cooking. Therefore, I will attempt to carry on her legacy and maintain/update her site. My wife was a Registered Nurse, a licensed deep water aerobics instructor, a mother to our 2 children and a fantastic cook. We grew up in New England but have been fortunate to live all over the US. I am now retired, missing her terribly, but thankful for all the years we had together and all her cooking lessons.
