Monday August 5, Civic Holiday. Used to be Bank Holiday in the UK. That's just about what I have been doing today, taking a holiday. Not really done much of anything at all except a lot of sleeping. I was up at 7 and decided to grab another hour, turned out to be 9:18 when I woke up again!! Not only that, I slept some more this afternoon. I feel pretty well rested now.
I haven't seen any fresh, local raspberries yet, guess they are out there. This dessert is right up my street. Mind you, I am determined to avoid too many carbs at the moment.
Have a great day

It's good to catch up on sleep. You probably needed it.
ReplyDeleteI thought so too Liz, but last night I hardly slept at all. Horrid night.
DeleteWe're getting imported raspberries here at the moment. Not as good as fresh summer ones, of course, which I have fond memories of when I lived in England for a while. I have them with Greek yoghurt, flaked almonds and a drizzle of honey. Couldn't handle all the refined sugar in the Nutella in your recipe.
ReplyDeleteOur fresh local ones are just coming in Helen. I love Nutella - sugar although I don't eat it often.
