Treat Tuesday-Fruit Tart with a story

IMG_1049So I have this list.  It’s my “50 before I’m 50” list.  So far I have knocked out 31 items.  I have until November, so the clock is ticking.  It’s not a bucket list, it is a list of all the things I have said over the years that I have wanted to do but I have not made the time for.  Plus, turning 50 isn’t exactly exciting so I had to find a way to make it fun!

IMG_1051So why a fruit tart?  Back in 1984 I received this cookbook with a tart pan.  I always intended to make a tart, but I think I became too involved with chocolate!

IMG_1046For the last month or so, I have studied this recipe.  It’s not that it was particularly hard, it was just quite time consuming with a number of steps.

IMG_1045In the end, it was a fun challenge that I think turned out as a good symbol for flag day.  Don’t you have a list??
