That’s my iris.
I love iris and this is the very first one I plant myself. Silly I know, but I’m so proud of it…
Isn’t it pretty ?
I took picture of it everyday, since I know iris doesn’t last very long…
Have a nice week-end !

I’m a weird girl.
The one who goes to the Botanic garden and takes picture of tulips, but ends up shooting anything but the tulips…
But after all, does it really matter ?
Don’t worry, be happy !

Inspiration is everywhere and sometimes in the simplest thing.
A friend came for lunch at home the other day and brought a fruit salad for dessert. Simple and yet delicious.
This colourful mix of fruits started to draw an image in my mind: vanilla custard and fresh fruits in a crisp home-made vol-au-vent case.
I imagine all the variations that could be made around this dessert depending on the season.
Summer with stone fruits and whipped cream.
Fall with apple, pear and chocolate pâte feuilletée.
Winter with citrus fruits and lemon custard…
And finally Spring !

If you fell too lazy or you are short in time, store bought vol-au-vent will make the trick. Although the laminated dough can be prepared many days ahead and stored in the fridge or freezer. All you will have to do then is bake vol-au-vent cases (20minutes) and prepare the custard.
