| 1 | I"m not at all good with desserts. |
| 2 | My favorite thing after a big meal is fruit. |
| 3 | I know, you`re going to say "how boring!"just give me a chance. |
| 4 | I have some tricks in my apron pocket! i`ll give you just a few ideas now. |
| 5 | Grapes...why not run them under cold water, dust with regular sugar and put them in the freezer for an hour? they won`t last long enough on your table to defrost. |
| 6 | Try mixing a bowl of different colored grapes. |
| 7 | Peaches....take about 1 peach per person, especially in the winter.(these chili fruits look great, but their flavor is missing something). |
| 8 | Slice them in wedges, sprinkle with cinnamon, add a tbls of some liqueur, any flavor and cover and cook in the microwave for 5-7 min. serve as you would applesauce with a pork roast. |
| 9 | It`s great with any roast. |
| 10 | You can also make a mixture of fruits for this, pear, nectarine,plums...use your immagination. |
| 11 | Strawberries.....the season is coming soon and i want you all prepared for this one. |
| 12 | It`s the best. |
| 13 | I can`t tell you how much to make for how many people, because no matter how much you make it will never be enough. |
| 14 | Wash strawberrys well, then take off the top or any bruises. |
| 15 | (you don`t want to wash away any flavor) cut each one in half or thirds if you must. |
| 16 | Place in a large bowl that has a secure cover or a large jar. |
| 17 | Add a few tbls sugar and the juice of a fresh lemon or two. |
| 18 | Fill your container 2/3 nearly covering berries.place the cover on and shake gently. |
| 19 | Place in refrig for at least 6 hour turning and shaking every hour or so. |
| 20 | You need not serve anything else with this, just make sure to provide juice glasses and a ladle when the berries are done. |
| 21 | Then just sit back and relax. |
