It was sooooo hot on the day that VDP last visited the palace gardens that she treated herself to a bit of ice-cream (served with scrumptious fresh raspberries) and a herbal tea at Lenôtre in the Scents Courtyard on her way back home! My goodness, that was a treat!
Il faisait tellement chaud la dernière fois que VDP s'est rendue dans les jardins du château qu'elle s'est fait un plaisir gourmand sur le chemin du retour en s'arrêtant chez Lenôtre à la Cour des Senteurs pour s'y rafraîchir !
Sinfully delicious!
ReplyDeleteAh, man! Now I want some, too. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks absolutely delicious and in a perfect setting, I envy you, I'm a big ice cream fan :)
ReplyDelete... and you didn't invite me ti slide next to you? Fresh blueberries, strawberries, raspberries in any concoction. It's summer! Yes!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good, Ciel!
ReplyDeleteYou don't need ANY excuses for a scrumptious dessert like this!
ReplyDeleteMy, that looks good. I wouldn't refuse it but it is not as necessary here, where it is weirdly cool and soaking wet.
ReplyDeleteThat raspberry/cookie/ice cream concoction is making me drool. I was just thinking how hungry I was, now there's no doubt, but I don't have anything this delicious in the house.
ReplyDeleteI could dive in that ice cream!
ReplyDeleteI would die for vanilla ice and raspberries. Yummy. The tea looks like honey.
ReplyDeleteThat tea does look fantastic. It's hard to think of warm drinks right now though... ;-)
ReplyDeleteI will skip the tea for a bigger ice cream like that...
ReplyDeleteGnam gnam, looks absolutely delicious !
ReplyDeleteTasty way to cool off!
ReplyDeleteI prefer raspberries to strawberries.
ReplyDeleteun petit plaisir bien sympa
ReplyDeleteA treat for sure.. see, there are some positives to hot weather Ciel :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, how delightful! Bet you enjoyed it all to the full.
ReplyDeleteWish I had been there to have one too. ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you! Ice Cream is a treat during the hot summer. That almond cookie looks pretty good too.
ReplyDeleteThere should be a law against posting such deliciously enticing food photos! I mean, really, you may have de-dieted thousands of people all by yourself. Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully captured. I've just had strawberries with ice cream and now you've given me a fresh idea. Too mouthwatering
ReplyDeletethat tea looks wonderful
ReplyDeletei think i am thirsty from working outside in the heat
