Happy solstice and midsummer! We have reached the longest day in the year and already half of the year passed by. It’s incredible how the time is running and how quick seasons are changing…so we need to stop and slow down a bit and try to enjoy “our” moments. For this special day I have baked this cake that has all sunny coloures, so it is perfect for the celebration. The taste of peaches go so well together with the freshness of mint, so mint tea was the perfect choice to accompany this clafoutis. I have some mint plants growing in the vase on the windowsill, the plants I have planted last year from the branches I’ve brought with me from my mother’s garden. These plants have survived the winter and now are in the bloom. I’ve picked some fresh mint leaves and prepared the mint tea while my kitchen was already full of perfume of peaches and vanilla.
