Stoned

For several evenings recently, we've been enjoying an appetizer of fruit and prosciutto while I make dinner. We are trying all kinds of stone fruits - peaches, nectarines, apricots - but our favorite so far is plums. The dark purple ones with the tangy skin that tickles our taste buds. When wrapped in a ribbon of prosciutto, they are a taste sensation.

If you want to totally gild that lily, drizzle a little balsamic vinegar over or dip them in it. Ooh, baby, summer's here and life is goooooood.

  1. At your suggestion I bought a cantaloupe.Just a two dollar supermarket one. It was so good!

  2. Hey, Greg! We just had cantaloupe for breakfast today! It was a Scotty's four-dollar one, but organic. So good!

    Zoomie, plums sound lovely in that appetizer.

  4. Ooo, we've eaten it with melons and figs but not stone fruit. Will give that a go once they are in season once more.

I love to get your comments. Answering them is nearly as much fun as writing the blog posts.
