Belli Fiori

Yesterday’s asparagus soup

The beginning of the Fiore Farm

All of our vegetable scraps go into our compost. I edited this photograph to brighten the colors.

Why not treat your office to a tray of Fiore cupcakes?

The Pudwill Farms Raspberry scones were a big hit. They sold out in a couple of hours.

My late night dinner when I got home, cold rare roast beef with just homemade pickles and lots of mayonnaise

Tomorrow is Scone Saturday.

We’re making raspberry scones. Here are a few photographs from today.

Pudwill Farms Raspberries.

On Fridays and Saturdays we always feature a breakfast pastry. Most of the time it is a fresh berry scone. We always get out berries from Pudwill Farms. Their berries are just amazing. They’re so sweet. I purchased this basket from their stand at the South Pasadena Farmer’s Market. Stop by Saturday morning for  Pudwill Farm’s raspberry scone.

Tomorrow I am baking  a walnut and olive oil pound cake. It’s the first time I have tried this recipe, but I’ve been looking forward to it for a few weeks. They’ll be out of the oven and on the counter by 10:45.

Don’t forget about the raisin cinnamon bread tomorrow.

Here are a few photos from my travels today. Hope you enjoy them.

Anne and I are hooked on the band Mumford and Sons. If you haven’t listened to them check them out. They are really speciale.

Here are a few photographs from today.

When will it stop raining???????????????????

We planted an Anna apple tree today on the patio of Fiore. There was one single apple dangling from a branch, but it fell off while I was pulling the tree from my car. There are quite a few blossoms so we should have more apples soon. I love that the tree is named Anna. Perfetto.
