I’d like to thank everyone for all of the wonderfully kind comments I received to my last post about how I’ve been experiencing a bit of a lull in the kitchen department recently.
Trust bloggers to always cheer you up!
As a way out of the doldrums, I’ve decided to keep things simple and to just go with what I want.
And at this time of year, I want berries!
An abundance of blueberries and strawberries at my weekly trip to the farmer’s market had me really inspired for the first time in a long time. I came home and as luck would have it, I had a loaf of brioche left from a recent trip to Rahier. Immediately, I remembered this recipe, which I’d bookmared in the May 2008 issue of Food & Wine.
This was so easy to make and so incredibly delicious. It restored a little bit more of my faith.
As you know, this is Magazine Mondays, which means I’m happy to share links from other bloggers who have tackled their magazine pile. Here’s the list of brave souls:
Allie of Zucchero Dolce made a Coffee Cheesecake with Nutella Swirl on a Brownie Base. Swoon!
Margaret of Tea and Scones was a busy bee as she made Watermelon Sorbet and Swedish Meatballs with Buttered Noodles from Martha Stewart Living. Wow! Last week she made Basic Yellow Butter Cupcakes also from Martha Stewart Living.
Janie of Panini Girl made Blueberry Corn Muffins from Country Living to celebrate summer.
Thanks to everyone for sharing their magazine recipe adventures!
Have a great week, everyone!
Ciao!

Thanks a lot! I’m also a gourmet and pastry enthusiast and this would really go to my compilation. I would also like to share. I came across a good site about European and Swiss cooking which also gives free sample family-secret recipes.

Can I use leftover Pantone Italian easter bread instead? I think it must be a similar consistency to brioche. What do you think?
