Strawberry tarts and slow days


The week seems to start with a bang.

Monday is the start line of the race, we take off sprinting, and start to slow down, panting, into Wednesday.

Wednesday is for pottering, just getting on through the list of chores, or more realistically not getting through chores as the teething baby cries need soothing, and older hatchlings say, 'Please can take out all the paints and glitter and beads?'

Wednesday is a day to have a treat, a water break along the course.

This week we made strawberry tarts.

We use this recipe for shortcrust pastry if your interested.

Then top with well what ever takes your fancy.

  1. I am drooling at the look of those lovely tarts.
    The strawberries look fantastic and I wish I could eat one but I can't when trying to lose this weight.

    I hope you enjoyed eating them though :-)
