Experience a symphony of flavors in every spoonful.”

This past weekend Mr. B surprised me.

He’s sneaky like that.

We were walking around Paulino Garden’s which is an amazing garden center just up the street from us. I would say on average we make a trip to Paulino’s at least once if not twice a week. Probably more when we were in full backyard remodel mode.

Anyways, every time we walk around the garden center I always make sure to stop by the Japanese maples to admire and say hello. Ever since we visited Japan I have falling in love with Japanese plants and gardens because whenever I am around them I instantly feel more balanced.

As we we strolled by the maples last weekend Mr. B stopped, turned to me and said, “pick one.” At first I didn’t hear him correctly and just ignored what he said. He looked at me confused and said again, “pick a maple tree out babe.” Well, things finally started to register and in one single moment my heart burst and I started jumping up and down as if I going home with a new puppy!

Well, the Japanese maple is kind of like a new member of our family because “Mable” will need a lot of TLC. But! I am up for the challenge. I must give kudos to my hubby because for the longest time I thought he wasn’t paying attention when I would stop and exchange pleasantries with the maples. Apparently he was paying attention all along and it was a wonderful surprise to finally bring one home!

Okay, on with today’s recipe because it’s a GOOD one! I wasn’t kidding when I said that peach might be in every recipe from now until August. Please don’t leave? If anything I hope these recipes will make you excited to cook with peaches. Alright, are you ready? On the menu for today is Peach Mousse with Basil Krispie Crumble. Best part? Making a mousse is super easy and delicious. But what makes this extra special is the basil krispie crumble. It’s like a marshmallow Krispie gone savory but with a little more crunch. Dying!!

I say make this Peach Mouss and surprise yourself or someone that you love! It will make them feel extra peachy! (wink, wink)
