… of another yummy “cake” to make this summer. (And I’m writing “yummy” ‘cos I’m in a hurry–can you tell?!)
Only thing, in this hot weather the buttery dough melts when you work it, so if it happens to you too, pop it back in the fridge to chill a bit and continue—don’t let it discourage you from making this!
Since I don’t like to cook fresh, seasonal fruit at their peak—I think they are just too good as is and their flavors completely change when heat hits them–I use fruit that have been sitting around on the counter for a while and have gotten too soft and overripe.
Another very important reminder!
Have you had a chance to get some of this yet?
Ahhhhh, freezing cold Pacific Ocean water…
Got to go now…

Yum. I second Alison’s comment that “cake” does look fabulous and oh so rich. I do the same thing when working with my pastry, but usually I am popping mine in the freezer. I especially love the figure of what I presume are your feet in the ocean. I can almost feel how cold and refreshing the water must be. I always feel like I don’t experience the summer enough, but I have been making a point to spend as much time as possible at our lake beaches.
Oh and as a side note, I’m not sure if you have/had my blog in your RSS reader, but if so you may need to update the feed. I didn’t realize when I switched over to feedburner that my old subscribers would no longer be updated so just wanted to send out the FYI. I have the link to the new feed at the top of my blog.
