A Quick and Easy Dessert?
My company has its annual picnic tonight and I'm working all day. I can shop, but have little time for prep. Any ideas for a quick dessert I can make in an hour (or less)?

If you don't have a grill just slice a bunch of aformentioned fruit + a few berries ( blackberries will work best) sprinkle with good amount of sugar and juice of a lemon (add a glug of peach brandy or a splash of wine if appropriate) and let sit. Then...
Put in a pretty bowl next to slices of the best store bought pound cake on a lovely you can get and some whipped cream or creme fraiche or ice cream.
or Buy a Pie, take it out of the aluminum and put in it a real pie pan, warm slightly :).

My other thought is if you can find some beautiful peaches to make a peach crisp or crumble where you basically sprinkle brown sugar, cinnamon, oats, butter, flour over the fruit and bake for 20-30 minutes...goes best with ice-cream (not certain if practical for your picnic)
