Berries !!





I was fortunate enough to visit my brother last week, he has managed to grow a great stand of berries: loganberries ( similar to a raspberry but with a more exotic flavor), boysenberries, olallieberries and a few other odd varieties. He is a generous soul and allowed me to pick to my heart's content. I frozen a large bag full and brought a container home to eat, which I did each morning for breakfast. I had plans to make great creations with these berries but they were just too tasty fresh like that.

With berry season in full swing here are a few of my favorite recipes, they use all kinds of berries and mostly can be substituted. Hopefully they will inspire you or like me maybe you will just eat they fresh !!

Summer Fruit Tart



Last Sunday some friends came over for dinner and I wanted a dessert that would highlight my fresh raspberries and blueberries.

The very first post in this blog was for a winter fruit tart, it has a wonderful shortbread cookie crust and a light, versatile cream cheese filling. 

It was the perfect match for all that fresh fruit. It's simple and a great way to impress your dinner guests !!
