Strawberry, Peach & Basil Balsamic Galette

July 14, 2014 · 3 Comments

Strawberry, Peach & Basil Balsamic Galette || Dreamery Events

Bastille Day, is the French national holiday, which celebrates the storming of the Bastille and marked the beginning of the French Revolution, signaling the end of the king’s power. Bastille Day is the French version of our Independence day, where fireworks and patriotic processions light up the oh so chic French streets. And of course it’s only fitting to celebrate my love of all things French by making a galette with farm fresh market peaches and strawberries, and an herbal hint of basil from the garden. 

In true French fashion, a rustic galette was folded and baked with fresh summer fruit, that created a succulent scent worthy of any French country home celebrating Bastille Day.

There is no need for processed sweeteners in this galette. With peaches so ripe and juicy, the sweetness is more enticing and satisfying that any added sugar could bring. Once baked, the peaches develop their rich yet delicate flavors even more, but then there are bitter hints from the strawberries, and a subtle earthiness from the sweet basil. I used a combination of sweet and lemon basil growing in abundance in my garden, which highlighted the sun-kissed flavors of these sweet fruits.

There may not be any celebratory fireworks lighting up the sky, but enjoy the night relaxing with a slice of this lovely galette, a chilled glass of Champagne of Pinot Gris, and gaze at the bright blue sky dim into deep oranges and purples, as the stars begin to emerge on another summer night.

“if the grief is real, the love is real” to f “if the grief is real, the love is real” 
to feel deep grief is to know great love🤍

From the moment I read these words, they have since become a part of me. I've been hesitant to share these words & photo, but felt the moment right. This is one of my favorite film shots knowing in that moment I had captured a cherished memory, one that would be unknowingly, the last. Yet it fills me w. so much love.

We all experience Grief & collectively we have been experiencing an immense amount of grief these last few years; whether it be for people, places or simply time a pandemic took from us. In all the moments of love & laughter I see at every wedding or party I have done, I always see the glimmers of grief too ... in the longing for loved ones too far to attend or those sadly no longer with us, the passing of time as little hands now grown into curious minds, families & friends coming together while others grown apart ... where there is grief, there is always love & joy intertwined.

When we care deeply, letting go of that kind of love is hard for anyone. When I lost my avô, my world shattered. He was my person & life is no longer the same, I'm no longer the same. But to have soul-stretching love, for a person or time, means we also risk the pain of losing it all -- that kind of love & living, well it's worth it!

“The best we can do is just hold & love each other, because life gets pretty rocky sometimes.” - Rob Delaney

NOT a sad post, instead one to remember to cherish the here & now🫶
Keep that rainbow of yours shining bright🌈💛 Keep that rainbow of yours shining bright🌈💛
& don’t forget to be a bit Groovy🌸🪩
