Strawberry Daydream Pudding:
-Your Dream Snack for Jam Girl Summer-
Dearest Reader,
This morning, the sunlight spilled through my windows just right, and with that I looked outside woken up with a hunger, and remembered a recipe, a sweet memory. So I padded into the kitchen, paws dusted in flour, and baked up something rather special! A tender little pudding dotted with Strawberries and warmed with love. It tastes like summer’s afternoon swaying in hammock when a cool breeze hits you and breaks up the warmth on your skin, and peace-filled, soft spoken days. You found this recipe tucked in the meadow of my blog, meadow of strawberries that is. For this is a strawberry bread pudding made to tickle your fancy, good enough to share with a friend or enjoy by yourself among the lilacs or beside a steaming pot of tea.
follow the trail of breadcrumbs, to the recipe below.

That’s the pudding, friend. I do hope it finds you well and brings a bit of sweetness to your table.
I’ll be back soon with another little something from the garden or the oven.
With love and crumbs,
