After Monte & Roberto left one of the tasks that Zok and I started was apricot harvest. The tree only produces apricots every two years, but I am sure we have enough jam, preserves,dried, stewed and then frozen to last until the tree fruits again.
Our neighbor says that 'every neighborhood should only have one apricot tree' and she is correct. I let the birds take what they want, because truly there is enough to go around.
I usually have sort of a vague stomach ache for weeks due to my apricot consumption. I can't stop myself. Zok made tarts, and I made an apricot nectar, side car. Can you smell the desperation? Feel free to contribute recipes.
Now I have to start picking the nectarines...
