Autumn mornings with Loochington
“Allt vad jag ansåg löjligt och smått behandlades med högtidligt allvar och allt vad jag vördade som stort och berömvärt häcklades.” from “Röda rummet (Swedish Edition)” by August Strindberg. How true those words are, even to-day!

In Memoriam Batger’s Chinese Figs
The most delicious of all confections and the most intense of gastronomic pleasures at Christmas time, which, alas, have ceased to exist. I had hoped to find something comparable amongst the glacé fruits at Fortnum and Mason, but these fall a long way short of the exquisite crystallised figs I knew as a child. Sic transit gloria mundi.
How I miss that choice Christmas confection
Of Chinese Figs! Their recollection,
Such texture and sweetness
Restored to completeness!
I’m praying for their resurrection! LJ St.Martin

Apricot Jam
It has been a good summer for fresh fruit from the garden, with peaches at home and apricots and greengages in France, inter alia. The jam made from the apricots is quite outstanding on a slice of pain noir fresh from the market bakery “à quatre pas de notre maison.” Slurp!
