Semifreddo con fragole - repost

Mia nonna diceva “attaccatemi un scopa e mentre cammino pulisco il pavimento”...

Ecco io ieri ho pensato la stessa cosa: alzata alle sei, sistemato casa, impastato il pane, spesa per noi e per mamma, pulito casa, preparato confettura di albicocche e pesche sciroppate e per finire, prima di impostare la cena, ho stirato. Ah, ovviamente mentre scendevo dall’auto o caricavo la spesa, dal cielo venivano tirate secchiate di acqua.

In conclusione, il tempo per scrivere una nuova ricetta non c’è stato ma ho ritrovato questo scatto che trovo perfetto per un fine settimana fresco e goloso.
