Peach Pit Baskets

Picking peaches the other day reminded me of my Uncle Reggie and the peach pit baskets he made for me.

Uncle Reggie is from North Carolina and has the most beautiful southern drawl, so soothing and calming and peaceful, it's impossible to feel tense or stressed around him.  I could listen to him tell stories about his childhood all day long. 

I became fascinated with a peach pit basket he showed me years ago, so, of course, he made me one.  On subsequent visits he has graciously made one for each of my children.
