I am, they are, & I did ~ A peach pie fan, that is, making this easy recipe & loving everything about it! However, although I followed your recipe, another time I might just see how it would come out if I added another cup or so of peaches, drained & patted dry! Anyway, thanks so much for posting this great keeper of a recipe! [Made & reviewed as a THANK YOU for playing with us in Please Review My Recipe during the recent tour]
