Simple.
Delicious.
Butter, Sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, 2 eggs.
Plums.
Always makes think of this exquisite poem:
By William Carlos Williams
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
Plums sliced in half,
sugar and cinnamon on top.
Golden with warm baked plums,
tart with sweet.
It's like the plums melted and were made
to be like Christmas ~
warm, surprising, delicious.
Mr. Husband and I shared two pieces
on one plate with the last
of our vanilla ice cream.
