Pause Paris #4~

I am fascinated by the formation of the peas..all the infinitely intricate transformations.

Nothing short of miracles.

I am absolument hooked on avo flowers..so easy to make ..so easy to eat..so pretty to see.
The Romaine..is from our gardens..earwig traps I call my heads of lettuce..chive blossoms home grown..edible pansies too..cherry tomatoes are still green here..and I don't see a chance in heaven at growing an avocado in QC yet.
A salad like this doesn't need much:)
Some S and P and a lovely home made vinaigrette..

The garlic looks like corn..
The peas are starting to bloom..so much like sweetpeas..but edible peas.
The herbs are so happy..I was wondering where those shears were:)
The tomato plants I started from slices of a Mucci tomato we liked..are healthy plants..with blooms..fingers crossed..
The borage from seed is about to bloom..
One thing for certain..I will never plant seeds in the gardens w/out making seed tape..w/ toilet paper..what a difference..I will show you:)Well I am sure you can imagine..a nice straight continuous row..or sparse and mixed up all crooked really..

Above is one delicious delicious cake..I found it on Instagram..that led me to Smitten Kitchen..and we are both smitten w/ this rhubarb big crumble cake:)
If you have just had a cast removed or about to:)  Maybe this could be on your list:)Of to do's:)
Do what she says..press the mixture in the bowl(th e topping) because it forms and then you can break off bigger pieces.
This recipe is PRINTED and in my keepers.
The only sub I made was use European Vanilla sugar instead of vanilla.
I find it makes such a difference..I did buy a few packs in Paris..but knew I could get them in Montreal..
certainly not for the next little while..I feel so bad for the store and it's employees..

Milano~A store Jacques and I enjoy every time we go to Little Italy.

Bon Weekend..a long one here and in the US..and Noah's 8th birthday:)
