My f picture book finally came in to the library.
This was a great book in it shows some thing may change form or how we do it, but the end product is the same. And it makes me want to try this recepie.
pickBeing a history buff, this was a very interesting illustration of the evolution of cooking “technology” over the course of 300 years and a sweet story of the unchanging joy of parent & child cooking together and the passing on of the tradition of licking the spoon. Recommend.

pickThis was a wonderful story about the making of blackberry fool through four hundred years! The implements changed, as did women‘s roles in the kitchen and even slavery. What‘s funny is after reading MISS MAPP, there‘s a whole section on her famous fool, a recipe which Elizabeth refuses to divulge. Had no idea what “fool” was, so it was lovely to learn about its origins here. 🥣🥣🥣🥣🥣

pickThis is such a fun book! We keep meaning to make Blackberry fool all the ways through history but gathering and cleaning a bundle of sticks and whipping cream for 15 minutes is...well let's just say even thinking about it makes me appreciate my kitchen aid even more. 😁
The kiddo masterminded a fine dessert. She did everything except melt the chocolate.
Dessert! Cheesecake and a snifter of blackberry brandy for me, chocolate dipped strawberries on the house for us to share, and tartufo for @MrBook . Yummy! 😋 Love the heart-shaped raspberry drizzle decorations. It's all in the details! ❤
