That calls for a celebration!
What about a strawberry cake?
Yummy!!!
I will publish the recipe here from an American friend of mine who is a cooking and writing genius. The strawberry cake showed here was made by her in December 2001 and I took a picture of it.
On Monday March 22, just after the Spring Equinox, I received this recipe from Lisa:
'I can taste the cake, taste the time, with your photo, Flora. And here is the longawaited recipe...
Put on your favorite music, and pour a glass of wine.
Bake a yellow cake, any mix is fine. While the cake is baking, wash, then slice the freshest spring strawberries. Slice them and sprinkle with sugar to taste. In another bowl, whip heavy cream with a pinch of powdered sugar, until thick and voluptous peaks form.
Think of those you love, laugh and dance and drink some more wine.
Split the cooled cake layers in half, and spread with some whipped cream. Add enough strawberries to make a tasty filling, then top with other half of cake. Dollop the rest of cream on top of cake. Now play, arranging strawberry slices on top. Serve with hot, strong coffee, and enjoy...'
Thanks so much Lisa, it seems like a perfect recipe to celebrate the beginning of spring!
