GINGER FLORENTINES…World of Spice Cookies Event!
“C is for cookie, it’s good enough for me; oh cookie cookie cookie starts with C.”Cookie Monster It’s a race against time, like a fight to the finish. Thankfully no resolutions for me this year, otherwise, one would most certainly have been not to work under pressure. But this time, cookies I have to make, & the reason is Meeta. I’m on the deadline, with ginger in one hand, & crystallised ginger in the other, getting to her World of Spice Cookies episode of Monthly Mingle @ What’s For Lunch Honey. This is one event I try very hard not to miss, & the large-hearted lady has allowed me on-board…

ADDICTED TO FOOD BLOGGA’S ADDICTION…A BEAUTIFUL PEACH & PLUM GALETTE!
“We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink…” Epicurus Galette a la Plums & Peaches! If someone said to me that they made a galette, I would just nod & get on my way, maybe wouldn’t even bat an eyelid! Never heard of something like that before (seriously I haven’t, even if that means you think I live under a rock!). Now if someone showed me a picture of a galette they baked, & if that someone had the word addiction in the blog post, & if that someone was the ever so talented Food Blogga gal, it would grab…

MAKE MINE A CRISP…PLUMS n PEACHES!
“Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each. “ Henry David Thoreau Stone Fruit Crisp – Peaches & Plums… This is quite the best time of the year to get inspired by summer fruits in food. This summer is special for me. The blogosphere is constantly churning out eye-catching & delicious fruity delights a dime a dollar!! It’s difficult to catch up & make each of them, but I’m getting on slowly & steadily… a real feast for the eyes. Here’s a stone-fruit crisp I made inspired largely by this ‘Triple Berry Rhubarb Crisp‘ posted…

MIXED BERRY & NUT CLUSTERS….Cookies, Cake & CLICK
“If life is a bowl of cherries, then what am I doing in the pits?”Erma Bombeck Mixed Berry & Nut Clusters Aaaaaaaargh…it’s just another of those days when time begins to run out on you even before morning has nicely broken!! Day before was a busyish day. I made cookies out of dried berries & I made chocolate chocolate-chip muffins from Nigella’s recipe @ Food network…asking for trouble to tell you the truth! The muffins were not nice at all, so not worthy of being posted. Had my dear friend’s kids over from Ukraine, so then made chocolate morsel cookies too. The kids are complete chocolate addicts & will not…

A PLUM OF A CAKE…FRESH PLUMS & PISTACHIO NUTS
“Do not be afraid to go out on a limb. . .That’s where the fruit is.” Anonymous Fresh Plum Spice Cake Blogging is greatly inspiring. It’s opens the mind to new ideas & makes you look at everything differently. Food blogging for foodies like me goes even a step further. A fruit means more than just a chomp now; it eggs me on to try & widen my horizons! …am still on a fruit trail Cherries have all but disappeared from the market; they show up for a very short period in summer. Peaches, plums & mangoes still rule the roost, with mangoes creating a sort of flood. I’m in…
