I had a request to follow the last house tour with another dessert, and I am more than happy to oblige. In fact, our visit to Twickel was followed by this divine dish ~ strawberry ice cream with a side of fresh strawberries and a healthy dollop of slagroom (whipped cream). Consumed al fresco in the setting June sun, I think these were the sweetest, most wonderful strawberries I have ever had. Really! Sometimes the simplest things are the best.Another confection to follow. . . of the architectural sort. In the mean time, grab yourself a big old tub of ice cream and have a yummy weekend!
Cheers!
strawberry ice cream is one of my favorite summertime treats (hagan daas) but that glass of wine looks more appetizing to me!
ReplyDeleteOooh. A double dose of strawberries! Heaven!
ReplyDeleteKeep these coming Janet!
ReplyDeleteYummy in every way. I'm thinking that the soil in that part of the world must be sub-lime...!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! And in your honor, I will soon post a pic of Maine strawberries (without the slagroom.) The photograph is pure confection! xo
ReplyDeleteAD ~ why choose. You may have both...
ReplyDeleteInkslinger ~ this is THE time for strawberries. I have had them for breakfast every morning this week. The Virginia berries are good, but nothing like their Dutch cousins.
Courtney ~ I am workin on it...
hbd ~ There is something about a cold climate that really produces a great berry. It is not good for everything (i.e. grapes...we had a good chuckle over the Dutch government trying to subsidize wineries in the Netherlands).
mom ~ you are welcome! xo
