Love and Cooking

Well, not yet. Even the sweet cherries aren't in the shops in much quantity. But I am hopeful that despite the strong recent rain, these lovely blossoms, photo taken a couple of weeks ago, are portents of sour cherry baked delights to come:



The white of Eastertide (c.f. Housman's poem) is little in evidence as the tree leafs out and the little green cherry fruits appear.

In other food related news, I signed up for a knife skills class (which I really intended to do before I sliced my finger, honest), the Cursed Soup isn't bad, my finger is healing nicely, I had dinner at Picante with Elaine last night, am eating lunch with my parents tomorrow, and I cleaned out my fridge.
