Una aventura culinaria
So in 2016 I turned 50. I was in Italy for my 21st, 30th and 40th. To keep this birthday tradition going I always knew I'd be in Italy for my 50! This blog starts with my 5 week adventure in Puglia but my love affair with Italy continues.....

Pear blossoms are so pretty! I bet they smell gorgeous too. Damn, now I am also thinking about pear cake! I do have apples on hand… might just be doing a modification until I can get hold of some pears.
Have a beautiful day Tanya.

I love cakes with apples and/or pears – apple upside down cake is calling you Mandy!
You live where there is spring?
It’s Spring right now in England and Spain – we live in both countries but England right now!
It does look as though you will be having a bumper crop! I think our plums will be good this year too – if only I could think of a way from dissuading the wasps to set up camp… they seem to love a good plum. 🙂
Damn those wasps L
Want to feel the spring , in my country there is no spring , only there are summer and winter . Indonesian beloved country . Have you ever been to Indonesia?
I’ve been to Bali and I adored it – most especially the people. One day I will return.
Sometimes a haircut promotes growth 😉
Tell that to my dad who is losing his hair L mind you…he is almost 80!
Ha ha – I’ve had very little hair since the age of 20, so your dad is doing well 😉
J So I keep telling him!
🙂
The good pruning seems to have agreed with your pear tree. You will be enjoying a pear cake before you know it.
I do hope so – we won’t have enough for cider though!
Beautiful. I am worried about our fruit trees as our winter was so bitter. Fingers crossed!
Ouch – a cold winter can really set things back L
We’ve had a couple lately and I’ve had enough!

All the photos are beautiful, with their light and shades….
But today , for me, the most romantic is the last one!!!
Ah…thank you!
Beautiful blossom xx
It really is so lovely to look out there every day and see it!
Hopefully spring arrives in 48 hours in France 🙂
Countdown….. J
Gorgeous cake!
It was – I often make variations of it!
Yum! Pear cake! I adore cooked pears especially in cakes and puddings 😍
I love cooked pears too – the flavour seems to intensify!
So beautiful and yes, hopeful indeed. That pear cake looks amazing. I’m going to have to make one too! Happy happy spring!
Happy Spring to you too J
Love that your planning your glut of pears already Tanya! 🙂 Gorgeous 2nd shot of the blossom against the brick wall!
Just a few days later the blossoms are falling but we have lots and lots of teeny tiny pears!
I am thinking of sending our possums to the U.K. and to Spain this year Ms Chica. They ate all of my pears and are now pining 😉
Don’t you dare Ms Narf – no possums wanted in Bexhill please!!!! Perhaps your pears were too tasty L
My roses are too tasty as well Ms Chica. The possums are very fussy. They only eat the leaves. I have long canes, denuded of all vegetation with a few flowers on the end. Looks like cyclone possum went through 😉
Damn those pesky possums L
I am originally from Indonesia, in Indonesia there is no spring as well state of the spring, the mistress have you ever felt the Indonesian dishes like rendang or gado gado ?
I have been to Bali and really enjoy Indonesian food when I get the chance to eat it!
Oh my gosh those flowers look adorable. Also passion fruit flowers are so beautiful. I’m so jealous! 😉
I just found out that pear shaped can to make cakes, sure tastes good well
