The theme for today’s edition of Photohunt is “Sweet.”
Oh, the connotations of that word, the associations that leap to mind: “Home Sweet Home”, “How sweet it is” (one of “our songs” to which we dance a sweet two step), the sweet smell of success, “Sweet Adeline”, sweets to the sweet . . . etc. etc. etc. And so I play the game today with:
The sweetest strawberries, picked fresh from my garden. We have learned we have to get out there bright and early to beat the birds and the turtles to them. In addition to the mangos and papayas and bananas et al in Costa Rica, it was the middle of strawberry season.
Is there any other thing that is sweeter than fresh fruit? Well, these cookies starred at a Solstice Party a while ago, and they were pretty sweet. Delicious too.
Our traditional Christmas dinner dessert is “White Chocolate Nougat Terrine with Chocolate Sauce and Raspberry Sauce”:
You have no idea what that feels like in your mouth. Recipes available on request.
There were never two sweeter cats than the calico daughters of Tosca, Susan and Cio Cio. They have been gone over two decades now, and we still miss these girls.
Make sure you visit the other Photohunts. I guarantee there are going to be some sweet photos for your enjoyment. And some great ones, too.
Happy Easter, and may you not sweet yourself into a diabetic coma!




very sweet! great photos!
Yes, there are foods sweeter than fresh fruits… but definitely not as healthy! ;b
Mmmmm…. sweet strawberries. I am hoping to be able to transplant some of the wild strawberries from my garden to the new place when we move… We had hundreds last summer.
Lots of great sweets! But the berries look scrumptious.
aloha,
what a sweet interpretation of our photohunt challenge today for sweet. i really enjoyed seeing your real sweets, wow sweet overload

Drool, drool. Lots of great sweets.
And who says cats are antisocial? Not these two!
It all looks delicious but the two cats are utter sweeties!
Those strawberries look delicious.
lovely photos. I am enjoying looking at them.
Mary
that dessert looks and sounds sensational!
Love the photo of the calico kitties
Cute overload.
The Lair is honoured by the presence of another calico kitty this Easter. I’m cat sitter for my daughter’s cats, so once more Her Supreme Catesty roams the Lair. Leopardess is not amused. She thinks the Lair – and the diminished Pride – is hers now and the temporary return of the old Queen and Ruler is not going to change that…
Needless to say there has been hissing and growling.
Oh so many sweet things. Happy weekend.
I can almost taste those strawberries…
my mouth is watering looking at the strawberries…
