Living in Florida gives me the opportunity to get nice Georgia peaches when they come in season. There are many roadside vendors selling this suculent gift of the late summer. For the past several months my wife and I have been on a "life style" change. Loosing weight and getting healthier. The makers of Splenda has several recipes that are only low in sugars and fat, they are quite good. Here is one I found that is perfect for the Georgia peach season.
