yesterday was a busy day in my kitchen lots of cooking, new summer potatoes with parsley and sea salt, broccoli right from the field with cooked eggs and pine nuts, of course some wonderful french dressing goes with that salad. and then the vanilla creme for dinner. of course not just plain, although that would have been received with a loud hurray too, it was for a traditional "goetterspeise" (it's a kind of trifle). we layered biscuits, strawberries, vanilla creme and rhubarb compote and loved it big time. everyone took seconds. i'm sure this dish will come back within a week.
and yes it was a few days of tea in our house. lots of rain and cold winds made me flee to drink tea again.
though i hope this is over soon, which might be already today, we hit mid seventies again and it will get warmer each day for the coming weekend.
and on the main course front, we are eating pasta every day, our friend brought a huge amount of pasta over last sunday evening, after a mountain bike event, where she was providing for the youth racers. she totally over estimated their appetite so we got a wagon load of "al dente" cooked pasta and i'm preparing them in all kinds of fashions, any thinkable sauce is being tried this week...
