I've got dibs on a place at your table, next time you do a cook up like this!!!!!!
It all looks absolutely scrumptious......very clever.
Oh good gracious, you are covering so many good things here, I don't know where to begin....
OK, that granita. I have done something similar, but only with watermelon and PLUMS and crushed ice. I drank so much of it one summer I got heartburn, something I've only had once in my life! But what a way to go...hahahahhahaha
Then your roasted corn. Oh let me tell you, we love roasted corn. On our honeymoon (now 32 years ago this past Thursday), we camped out at Big Sur, California and made roasted corn under the stars. Then there are those carmelized peaches...my favorite. All I can remember is how my mother made her fresh peach pie and the run off from the sugars was my favorite part.
HAPPY COOKING MY FRIEND!
that all looks so yummy . Just loved bakes stone fruits
see you soon
I think this is my favourite of your Donna Hay dinners so far!! Each of those dishes sound exceptionally tasty!! Floating Island peach cake would be so delicious!!
Looks yummo. I made lots from her xmas edition and was a big success too
And there you did it! :)
Dzintra, oh my goodness, it all looks so incredible!
You are indeed an artist in the kitchen....and I love how you make some of the more daring dishes...
The granita looks so refreshing...must have been perfect on a hot day...the hummus, salad, chops...all beautiful...Brava!
And the dessert! Made me want to lick the screen... :)))
Thank you again, dear friend, for including me in this exciting collaboration...I can't wait to get the new issue....
We are getting more and more produce in the stores now...the Farmer's Markets are not in full swing until July....so fresh ingredients can be a challenge.
I'm sure I'll find some delectable recipes...so excited!
Love to you and Bon Appetit!

Set another place for me too, please......
I have this vision of poor Jo Jo and poor Mr Armchair sitting patiently waiting while you click merrily away! Seriously, you have great talent..... It looks delicious!
