Toffee Strawberries and Mint Choc Chip

Some recent pictures from our wee world... (click to enlarge in gallery view!)









Saturday A pitter patter at the window!  Where are you spring sunshine?  It has been bright but so wet, the clouds are like a giant soft box overhead!  A special envelope all the way from my far away good friend in New Zealand arrived for us!  A perfect start to our dreary weather morning which we spent indoors listening to records, playing geetar and uke and of course taking pictures of these yummy desserts we had made and frozen the day before!  Which did have a sunshine spell, one long enough to walk through blossom trees to fetch some more strawberries! ;) yummy dearest sweetest strawberries... mmm...  Our evening ended at Mark's oldest friend's lovely home, after spending a lovely night with the newly weds, their wee kitties and seeing their amazing pictures of Thailand :)

 
Our Raw Vegan Ice Cream Dessert Adventures 

This is something we have been enjoying lately!  It's great to freeze bananas to use as icecream and in frozen whipped moose desserts!  We have been experimenting with different recipe ideas and wanted to make our favourite ice cream, mint choc chip!  The other one pictured is a strawberry dessert which I wanted to make with chunks of dates as dates taste like toffee when you keep them in the fridge!  Because we are still experimenting I will list the ingredients we used but not the quantities because each time we make it they vary!  Each way delicious though, so if you fancy blending, mixing, freezing and garnishing with these ingredients, I think you might have a yummy time! :)

Raw Blueberry hearts

Some recent pictures from our wee world...(click to enlarge in gallery view!)



























Words.
I sit on the stump and I dream of the Ocean.
Me and you, you and me son.

A temperance trance caught us ashore.
cleekit and a guddle no more.

Tweetle and raw-er, gaither each day.
Listening to records and learning to play.

Working out, grazing in the snow or the sun.
The dreich weather throws a harder fight for fun.

I fantasize the days we adventure.
Fill the hours inbetween with braw wee pleasures.

Oh, a wee p.s. 

I bought this cuuute dress from sweet Rodellee's shop Adore Vintage a few years ago!  She has lovely vintage collections!  Oh and, recipe for the yummy raw hearts soon! ;) x
