January 13: National Peach Melba Day

I had no idea what a peach melba was. I thought it might have something to do with melba toast, which grossed me out. Peaches and crunchy little toasts?? Wah.
 

 
But NO! A peach melba is vanilla ice cream covered in peaches poached in sugary vanilla syrup and raspberry sauce! So much better than a peach on a melba toast, and infinitely better than Melba Toast Gibson.

 

Tomorrow: National Meat Month/National Wheat Bread Month
