PLUM & DRIED BLACK GRAPE FRANGIPANE CLAFOUTIS…INSPIRED BY TARTLETTE
“What is more mortifying than to feel that you have missed the plum for want of courage to shake the tree?”Logan Pearsall Smith Danced off Helen’s beautiful blog, Tartlette’s, the other day, in a dreamy trance. Two thoughts rang through my head. Helen’s hub B smashing the tops of the dreamy desserts, and an urgency to recreate the delightful dessert as soon as possible. Not the first time a fruit dessert has done this to me. Did it off Judy‘s blog, No Fear Entertaining when the peach season began and I instantly made Apricot Cherry Mini Crisps. Then again, off Ari’s blog, Baking and Books with Plums & Brown Sugar…

Brown Sugar Plum Cakes … sweet summer dreams!
“What is more mortifying than to feel that you have missed the plum for want of courage to shake the tree?”Logan Pearsall Smith “Do you realize that we have had no dessert to eat for many days?”…a voice rang out from behind me as I walked to the kitchen. I pretended nonchalantly not to hear; didn’t even bat an eyelid! It was the boy speaking up. LOL….”Yes”, I said to myself silently, “I do, and was waiting for this to come, only it took a little longer than I expected.” I’ve treated them to a deluge of desserts this summer, celebrating the presence of stone fruits day in and day…

ROASTED PEACH & PLUM FRO YO…Stone fruit again!
“I had always thought that once you grew up you could do anything you wanted; stay up all night or eat ice-cream straight out of the container.”Bill Bryson I think this might just be the last batch of peaches now, & sadly so, though I still don’t want to say goodbye to this beautiful fruit. The first batch of the season went into these Peach & Mixed Fruit Crisps that I made here inspired by Judy’s @ No Fear Entertaining. That just set me up for a wonderful peach season that I haven’t been able to get enough of. With this versatile fruit, I’ve made peach-rosemary jam, galettes, birthday cakes,…

LOW FAT ROASTED PEACH & PLUM EGGLESS ICE-CREAM…Time to Social-ice!
“My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it’s on your plate – that’s my philosophy”Thornton Wilder I had peaches. I had plums. I had a firm grip on the whisk & the ice-cream scoop! Did I mention a firm resolve to make ice-cream before July flew right by? Does anyone know what’s happening to the summer months? Everyday flies by so fast that I’m having a tough time keeping up with July. Announcing July as the official National Ice Cream Month is a deliciously wicked way to make July enticing… “Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United…

A PARTY FOR A POPPET…FRUIT GALETTE TARTS
“Sing a song of Birthdays Full of fun and cheer, And may you keep on having them For many a happy year.” Author Unknown Sitting waiting for the cream to come by…yum yum yum!! All dressed up for the party… it’s the BIG 1 !! The head was dizzy with a heady mix of poppet, party & France. An eclectic mix of thoughts, while enjoying the delectable success of my rustic Peach & Plum Galette , set me thinking. Had to make something for Dhhangit’s sweet little poppet, Mayumi, who is about to turn 1. Dhhangit has the cutest little baby girl, & this loving Mum has called out a…

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…
