Hello to all again with much love.
The weather lowering a bit the heat which is very nice, and last Saturday we went to the beach .
I think about three years I didn't go to the beach and It was beautiful. (We went only by the day)
Valparaiso and Viña del Mar)
In the evenings I already feel that autumn is coming (for many of you the Spring)
It refreshes a lot at night!
A few days ago I made this cake and many know that one of my favorite fruits is passionfruit (aka maracuya).
As always you can use fresh or frozen passionfruit. I always have frozen. When you buy fresh passionfruit it ripens very quickly!
If you find frozen passionfruit , the Peruvian is so good.
