Strawberries Romanoff

Remember a few months ago when this blog was all about recipes?





























I'm happy to have one recipe post from my visit with Kira. She didn't ask me to participate in making a single thing (which is a fine vacation). When she visits me she doesn't get off so easily.



























This recipe is simple, elegant, and delicious. We made it for her parents' supper club, which we crashed* for dinner on Sunday night. It was a wonderful addition to the meal, since it's so light and easy to put together.
