Actually, I think the dish is French. My older daughter gave me four of them..........they say France on the bottom. Something like that.

It is a pretty dish.

This is absolutely my favorite time of year, I don't care how hot it is. When fresh organic peaches, cherries, berries, apricots, nectarines and all related goodies are in season, I'm in heaven. I've been known to make myself sick on cherries.
