THE FRUITS OF QUOTES IN SUMMER


OK Bloggets. We are sick of this winter, so let’s have some sunshine in our hearts today with an old recipe of mine and some summer quotes, hey? I want’ to try to write a short story later about summer too. In the meanwhile, here goes. Now, feel the warmth?

Blackberry and lemon Mess

Ingredients

  • 600ml tub whipping cream
  • 3 tbsp icing sugar
  • 6 tbsp lemon curd
  • 200g blackberries
  • few primroses or other edible flowers, to decorate (optional)

 

Now, some people may want to make their own meringues? But why? Make it easy, buy them?

To serve, dollop the lemon curd over the whipped cream, then crumble over some of the meringues in small chunks Put the blackberries into a bowl and lightly rough up with a fork so they’re whole but juicy, then scatter them over the cream. Fold together with a large spatula or spoon, just a few times to marble everything through. Divide between 6 glasses or bowls, top each with an edible flower, if using, and serve straight away.

 You can use strawberries, but black berries or even raspberries, are really nice with this? In fact, last time I made this, I also put blueberries in.

 

Summer quotes

A porch is the only real reward you need after a long summer's day.

 

“Bees do have a smell, you know, and if they don't they should, for their feet are dusted with spices from a million flowers.”
