Hubby and I just got home after receiving our second covid-19 vaccines. Feeling relieved. We'll wait a couple/few weeks, then head to Vienna, which has been on my bucket list.
Fruit of all sorts are in season here. My husband bought a mess load at a farm stand yesterday. They included local strawberries, raspberries, apricots, plums, and cherries. Too many, really. He said he'll eat them all. Of course I like them, too, but he bought enough for a large family, instead of two. I'm making a homemade fruit tart. I made the custard yesterday afternoon. I just need to make the crust, then fill and decorate it with some of the fruit. I also have some oranges, blueberries, and kiwi. Last week, I thought I was buying fresh figs from the online grocer. When they reached me, they were prickley pears. In Czech, prickley pears translate to "cactus figs". I just saw the word for "figs". No clue what to do with these buggers. I tried one and it sucked.
