Hope the tomatoes are doing well. The pavola recipe is perfect for this time of year. Another place to use the early blackberries. Yum!

What a great post…I go through these little moments every year, when my parents go to and return from India. I must admit that I always save the latest voicemail from my mum…she’s so cute and funny…especially when she thinks she’s talking to the cats…

Lovely post Ivonne. Airports indeed! I used to love them but unfortunately no longer so! I guess I must have flown way too many times, and dread now the discomfort of long waits and being tired! Love your mum’s last comment

I made a pav recently. Your meringues look beautiful. Must try the rosewater addition, mmm!

I got all tingly reading your post as I love (& dislike) airports. I’ve never made pavlova but as part of Australia week have been meaning to make one all week. (supposedly it is argued that the Australians or New Zealanders invented it) I might just give the mini ones a go now. Lovely, thank you.

Very much enjoying your site. The meringues look lovely. And delicious!
Clearly you’re not alone in your fascination with airports. I think that an airport is the one place where you can find such a vast collection of different emotions – and can relate to them all. Feeling happy and sad at the same time, excited and nervous. Whenever I drop someone off at the airport, I am always sure to leave my credit card at home for I canâ€™t help but feel all that energy and get the urge to fly away too!

A lovely new site with my very favorite summer dessert featured. Thank you for a new recipe for an old favorite and may your mother’s trip be as marvelous as her memories are of your father.

Congratulacions!

I think, for me, it’s a feeling of infinite possibility when I get to the airport. And a little bit no-man’s-land. Really lovely post.
