Who me? No, I didn’t buy and pit six kilos of sour cherries a few weeks ago to freeze and make into delicious things all year. Or maybe I did, because my precious apricots won’t make an appearance this year thanks to a tragic frost. We all cope in our own way 😭🍒

I still dream of a sea salt caramel gelato I had 13 years ago in Saintes, France. I happened to have the exact amount of organic cream for a batch of ice cream in the fridge. We always have farm fresh eggs. So I went down a rabbit hole last Sunday getting the caramel to the edge of burnt (iykyk) and emerged with a quart of ice cream that creates pure happiness in a cone. Life is good.

My most popular recipe to date, Marillenkuchen. It’s not too late to get some apricots this season (but the clock is ticking).

The perfect snack cake for afternoon tea!

Bounty of the season: Black Krim, Oregon Spring, Amish Paste, Super Fantastic and Black Cherry

The a Black Krim are my favourite, with a subtle smoky flavour that’s perfect for tomato sandwiches. Amish Paste are great for sauces.

Three words: Micro. Mini. Eggs.

🐣🐇💐

Yes micro. Can you even? They are about the size of a chocolate chip and I tossed them into my cookie dough yesterday with reckless abandon.

Gone are the days of nearly chopping your fingers off to add the regular mini eggs! (I kid, my knife skills aren’t at all bad. I just really hate chopping up those damn delicious regular eggs, which are simply too big to be added whole. IYKYK.)

Anyway, I implore you to make a batch of cookies if you can find the micro minis at your local store. I only found them (by chance) at the self checkout of my nearest mega store. Not in the seasonal section with all the other Cadbury treats. That would be too obvious. Not to be found in the regular candy aisle. Foolish idea. They were hidden away on an inconspicuous shelf and I perhaps considered buying the whole box. Common sense prevailed and I only left with a few small bags 😌

Treats of the Sunshine Coast, donuts and cinnamon buns! If you’re a staying with friends like we did, grab a selection for sharing and cut them into quarters. What would you call that, a treatcuterie board? 🤔🍩

Treasures of the #bcaletrail. If you ever find your way up the BC Sunshine Coast, be sure to stop at @townsitebrewing. They make one one of our favourite brews, a dark aged sour. 🍻🍺

Nothing like ramen on a cold and rainy day. Do you add the Ajitama? It’s always a yes from me! 🍜

Figs are here! Even with the wonky weather this year we still seem to be able to source plenty of locally grown figs. Desert Kings reign supreme on Vancouver Island and they are ripe this week!

From farms to people’s backyards, we bought about 10 dozen so far. ⁠I’m making a huge pot of fig jam (already on the stove) and later we’re making some ancho chile fig bbq sauce. ⁠

What kind of figs grow where you are? 🤔👇
