We like to get a bit thematic with our posts when the #FabricOfTheWeek so inspires. And with the last days (weeks?! ) of summer sun with us, we thought we’d share this lovely and simple recipe with you, sure to impress your various guests! Ingredients: 4 tulip blossoms, stamens and pistils removed 4 large or 12 small scoops of ice cream 1 pint (16 fl oz) fresh berries Several tablespoons tulip syrup (http://on-msn.com/16FSobz) Method: Prop each tulip in a container that will help it stand upright, such as an eggcup or champagne flute. Place 1 large scoop (or 3 small scoops) ice cream in each tulip. Drizzle a little tulip syrup over each and place a few fresh berries on the top. Serve immediately.
