a spring picnic in mom's secret garden...and a recipe


































before i left for our voyage magazine england extravaganza i had to take time
to enjoy the apple blossoms in my mom's little orchard...
those apples have provided snacks and brotherly-teasing-ammo for years.
this place is one of my most favorite peaceful refuges.

i wanted a simple little treat to enjoy to take advantage of all the great berries at the market...
so i returned to an old staple: almond cake. click here to get the recipe.

    What a gorgeous place to have a picnic! Apple orchards have to be my favorite place in the world. They're serene and smell heavenly. I hope to get married in one. :-)

    So glad you're back to posting. Hope both of your trips were wonderful! xx
