Peaches and cream? - If I protect you, yo life will be all peaches and cream.
What does "peaches and cream" mean in this sentence? Is that an idiom or something? Thanks!

Re: Peaches and cream? In this context: You will never have to worry - everything will be provided and you will live in luxury.
It is also a collocation used to describe a fair complexion.
