Foodie Thoughts for 13 January
Foodie fans today is National Peach Melba Day...
The Peach Melba is a classic dessert, invented in 1892 or 1893 by the French chef Auguste Escoffier at the Savoy Hotel, London to honour the Australian soprano, Dame Nellie Melba (1861 - 1931). It combines two favourite summer fruits: peaches and raspberry sauce accompanying vanilla ice cream.

Welcome back Nikko. Thanks to new ifood search I see that you have also marked September 13 as National Peach Melba Day. I just wonder how many peach days are in a year?
