Turning up the Heat.




It was 34 C in the shade yesterday, so Lady Magnon decided to do some baking!

First she made some of her wonderful Parmesan biscuits, then, as it's Plum season, she made a delicious Plum Tatin.

We're ostensibly on our annual Summer diet, so biscuits and pies are normally verboten, but we do make exceptions. A slice of Plum Tatin with a dollop of Ice Cream makes the perfect desert after a light meal.

Unfortunately the kitchen remained at 45 C for the rest of the day!

p.s. They look like Figs in the photo, but I can assure you they were Plums!

Looks so beautiful and delicious. It takes a lot of determination to bake on such a hot day.

I'm on a strict diet at the moment but that looks so tempting. Haven't had a tarte in ages.

That looks so good.

It really was far too hot for baking, but she managed it!

It's all gone now, we needed to remove it from temptation.

Nothing beats a Tatin, whether it be Apple, Plum, Fig, or anything.

45 degree kitchen. You must be talking Fahrenheit. That seems absurdly hot in France.

Good on Lady M for baking in the heat. We haven't been given any plums this year unfortunately. Our neighbour has lots of plums but not enough to give away I think. His pomegranate trees are loaded but not ready yet, so unfortunately is his quince tree.

That looks very good, especially with some ice cream on a hot summer day.

Sometimes such deliciousness is worth turning the kitchen into the Sahara!

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
