A Heavenly Almond~Raspberry Tart~

When you discover perfection~



You have to share~
My friend lends us her Irish magazines..We appreciate them..

While perusing one..

I found this recipe that tickled my taste buds..



Could the words..almonds.. rasbperry jam.. Ireland.. lemon zest..have anything to do with my wanting to make it right away?
Oui!


I knew it would be pretty..and I knew it would be good..
And so it is~


I hope you try it..and enjoy it..it's worth it..
The word missing from the title of the recipe in the magazine article is..♥
Un petit bijou.
Like lavender and roses are to the gardens.. little bijoux.




I just had to share this..

Because of a previous re my Rose Cottage/Potting Shed post..
Look how cute..
From The Graphics Fairy~


Thank you Karen..I am anxious to create tags with this:)

  7. Looks devine! I was so smitten with the phrase in the first paragraph, "you won't go far wrong." So very Irish! Love that.
    This will be added to my Christmas menu for sure.
    Lovely graphic from our favorite fairy too!

  8. Ma très chère Nana, mes obligations faisant, j'étais éloignée ces derniers temps de la blogsphère et je le serai peut-être encore quelques jours, mais sache qu'à chaque fois que je me retrouve sur ton blog je prends des kilos rien qu'en salivant devant tes photos et en lisant tes recettes! Tu es une véritable ensorceleuse!
    Gros gros bisous à toi.

  11. This sounds like a cake that my husband would love. He is crazy about linger cookies and I think this cake would remind him of those but so much better.

  19. It does look delicious! After our Thanksgiving feast I won't be able to indulge in sweets for little while ~ until Christmas baking begins :) I'm saving this!

    I love that darling little cottage too!

  20. Looks beautiful and delicate!
    I also believe I would've taken notice of the almonds in the recipe (being an almond freak), but the rest of the ingredients would have surely reeled me in.
