208/365 (July 27, 2010) – Strawberries with cream and a dash of brown sugar.
I also love strawberries drizzled with a good (read 25 year aged) balsamic vinegar drizzled over them. Or, put out a dish of strawberries, a small dipping bowl of good balsamic, and a small dipping bowl of heavy cream. Dip the strawberry into the vinegar, then the cream, then pop it into your mouth. Sounds strange if you’ve never tried it, but trust me, the acidity of the balsamic with the sweetness of the strawberries and the creamy richness of the cream can’t be beat. Pure heaven!
I just love this season!

207/365 (July 26, 2010) – I love blueberry season…. what’s not to love? Wonderful little packages of flavour that go with everything from yogurt to salmon.
Summer pleasures…sigh…
And the best part is, after the photo shoot, you get to eat your subject!

204/365 (July 23, 2010) – Hands down my favourite herb, the peppery flavour of basil just pairs so damned well with fresh tomatoes and bocconcini. Pure heaven on a plate. I could forgo the meat and any veg on a plate if you passed me a bowl of tomatoes with basil and bocconcini.
Which makes me realize, I haven’t bought bocconcini in a while…. and I just pruned the basil plants in the garden…
I think I need to go to the market and visit the cheese section of Prima Italian Market.

195/365 (July 14, 2010) – Nothing profound to say, just a day spent trying to catch up on marking and such. Last minute shot pulled from the list of ideas inspired by other images seen on Flickr at some point.

166/365 (June 15, 2010) – I love this time of year….fruits and vegetables actually start to taste like they should again.
I tend to prefer to buy produce in season, usually it’s the best quality, and it hasn’t travelled to places I haven’t!
