If you ask me right now which season I like best, I would say it is autumn so far.
Sincerely at this time I would be happy to be in Autumn and winter will come.
But we are at the end of spring and starting with a very hot summer , and with all the problems we are living here in our country now is very hard.
(Many fights here in many sites that is worry me)
You can go out one day and you do not know if there will be subway or buses.
Or maybe you have an appointment with the kinesiologist and nobody tells you that he left earlier or that date was suspended, anyway.
And when you ask why happens this, all say but you know the times we are living. Im not agree with it.
In the middle of this I try to keep doing things like baking, reading and pray (like always reading is my my joy) And I pray a lot by different reasons.
Please pray for for our country we need it.
I made my first strawberry jam and I hope to make apricots jam soon.
And I made this crumble a few weeks ago (time goes very fast) and was delicious, pears and strawberries.
If you like you can do with other fruit blends.(apples, raspberries, blueberries )
About these little roses, one day I went to downton and in the middle of chaos someone sell these little roses. I bring them to home, many times I didn't see these little roses.
My chilean grandmom always had these little roses.
Note: And thanks for be there always , many of you mail me.
And thanks by that, Hugs and love for all !!

Thanks Grumpy, you can eat all if you like , bises!
DeleteDear Gloria, that dessert sounds wonderful! And I love those roses too, what a pretty color! Wishing you lots of strength in these difficult times!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anddrea, yes some times are really difficult, hope in the time will be better and more quiet, not with problems all days!!
DeleteI've read about the unrest in Chile. It must be so difficult for you. I'm glad that you're able to keep some sense of normalcy to your daily life by cooking things like this.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeff we live difficult times but for mental health is good to try to make things and live and cook and bake, we live in the countryside and that help me to be more quiet but we always know all that is happens and my son works in dowton. Thanks Jeff
DeleteI think it's clearer than ever that these kinds of things could happen to any of us, anywhere in the world. I wish the best for you and your son.
DeleteThanks Jeff, I hope the same. You know finally all we want is peace but we live in a crazy world right now.
DeleteLike you, my favorite is Autumn too. This does look delicious. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too Jax !!! hugs !!
DeleteHi Gloria, We both love fruit crumbles but have never tried a pear strawberry combination. Looks great! I've been following the problems in Chile on the Internet and it looks pretty bad...and sad...in a normally stable country. I am always unhappy with news coverage here in the USA due to the 1) the lack of covering real news and 2) covering celebrity news instead! I haven't seen any news on any of our TV networks about the unrest in your country. Hopefully things will settle down soon. From what I understand, just a few families control way too much of the economy (and wealth) in Chile. That is somewhat true here as well but many of our wealthiest do very big charitable projects...museums, housing, education, healthcare, etc. Wishing you and Chile the very best! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteExactly David by years we live ok but always we had many problems, with a few people with money and others with a lot of problems but if you ask me I never I would think in that we are living right now.
DeleteI will be comments here now is a little more quiet but some days is difficult. My son works in the city (dowton) so sometimes Im really worry.
We live in the countryside so is more quiet but we know all of course. I think CNN is the most is covering the news here and BBC too.
Thanks to you David, send you hugs and love
Un dessert davvero meraviglioso! Ti abbraccio tantissimo Gloria! A presto!
ReplyDeleteGrazie Elena, un abbraccio !!
DeleteVery pretty. It looks delicious. Love your beautiful roses!
ReplyDeleteThanks dear Mimi !! love roses!
DeleteThinking of you during these difficult times, Gloria. I agree with Dave. We don't get much coverage of the unrest there here in the US, but I keep updated through folks I follow on Instagram. I do pray things will settle down for your countrymen soon.
ReplyDeleteYour crumble looks delish. I'd love to tuck into it while reading a good book and sipping some freshly brewed tea.
Thanks Theresa, what a time, never before I think we would live all these things, is like other country sometimes. I hope the president finally think in something!! Is terrorific sometimes!
DeleteThanks Theresa love crumbles! hugs to you dear
Praying that difficult times get over soon, Gloria... I am wondering how much strawberries did you use in this crumble... I am so in love with the topping used, so delicious...
ReplyDeleteThanks dear Rafee, yes I hope the same, difficult times, how are you doing Rafee?
DeleteI love the topping too!bises
Que delicioso crumble!....a esas rosas las llamabamos "besitos" ....no se ahora....estamos todos rezando......Abrazotes, Marcela

ReplyDeleteCara Gloria, pregherò sicuramente per il tuo bellissimo paese, che ho visitato solo per la Patagonia e che spero prima o poi di vedere meglio. E' triste che ci sia ancora da combattere in una terra che ha già tanto sofferto. Ti abbraccio e spero che ti arrivi il mio affetto. La tua torta è bella e buona, sei un campione ai fornelli! bacioni :)
