  1. That is a seriously, seriously gorgeous photo. You should hire yourself out as a food photographer -- apparantly it's one of the hardest things to photograph properly and those who specialize in arranging and photographing food for magazines and cookbooks and stuff command a good buck.

  5. Um, I'm pretty sure I could consume everything on that plate in one sitting!!! Of course, I probably wouldn't need to eat the rest of the day, but I think I could do it.

    Food is pretty!

  6. XUP: thank you! I am a little worried this could be beginners luck - so will try again. but yeah, didn't those raspberries come up juicy looking...

    Jazz: and that butter tart was absolutely divine. I have some left...

    Sunny: and what could be simpler than some fruit and cheese and a bit of yogourt?

    Char: thanks, it was!

    Susan: actually, I pretty much did, except for the tomatoes and the cheese.

  7. I think you ate the little tart first, at least I would have. That is a way cool plate, a way cool board thing and everything on the plate is pure heaven. I just picked up some raspberries yesterday too. And these tomatoes are such good ones, whatever they're called.

  10. Gilly: farmers markets are the best -no matter how small.

    The pastry is a butter tart - a Canadian specialty. Recipe in next post for anyone who cares.

  12. Somehow blue plates always make food very pretty...I love this plate...and I have been a lover of Fire King for a long time...

    I'm certain I would have started with that yummy looking butter tart and I am excited to read that the recipe will be shared!...after the tart I would have finished off the entire plate:)

    Irene: sorry!

    Oliag: I LOVE these new plates - I have no platters and these work well, being so big. I'm now collecting this colour of Fire King!
