On a hot day, I like to cut some of the roses' blooms and bring them inside to enjoy,
I figure it's better than them getting dried up out in the sun.
However, before I brought these blooms in,
I set them up for a little photo session outside,
and these are some of the pictures for you my dear friends.
I love the way the texture of the burlap shows in pictures,
I think burlap looks great together with roses.
I hope you are enjoying your week,
I want to thank you lovely ladies who sent me very encouraging e-mails recently,
I will reply to your requests and questions as soon as I can,
you ladies are a wonderful bunch. I love hearing from you, thank you so much.
Roses used here are Jude the Obscure (yellow, peachy, David Austin), Jubilee Celebration (pink, David Austin) and Radio Times (pink, David Austin)
I've been enjoying baking French morsels lately,
French Macarons and Madeleines in particular.
They are really scrumptious treats indeed;
I have to stop myself from eating too much of them.
Have you tried to bake those?
Do you like them?
I found the process of making the macarons a bit more time-consuming and finicky and they are rather sweet to eat,
they were supposed to be pink (strawberry flavour),
but I didn't add enough pink food colouring ( I must've been too well conditioned not to have food colouring in food) to make them turn out pink enough.
Good thing is my kids still absolutely loved them whether they were pink or not. The Madeleines were simple and easy-peasy to make but disappeared extremely quickly as soon as they were out of the oven.
If you asked me if I would bake them again,
I would say I would. ( I would love to make Mint Green Macarons next time!)
Thanks for coming by here,
have a lovely weekend;
Till next time.
