Oh wow! I'm surprised that it's only three pounds! That pear tart looks sensational. This is an excellent retirement plan.
ReplyDeleteI've been loving it -- except for the weight gain.
DeleteI am drooling here. Those dishes are works of art. And the bread! If you keep trying to lose those 3 lbs. while eating these yummies, you may not lose them but you'll maintain. You can send me your share. LOL
ReplyDeleteMaintaining is about all I can hope for at this stage.
DeleteIf my husband took a truffle making class, I'd gain far more than 3 pounds! Those look delicious!
ReplyDeleteYour husband needs to have a party. It all looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteOnly three pounds? I am sure I would have added many more with those goodies....they look so delicious! Thanks for sharing...and here's MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT POST
ReplyDeleteIt looks like he's quite the chef. Gorgeous photos and the food looks wonderful
ReplyDeleteDefinitely delicious cakes! Good photos!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! Lucky you!! It all looks delicious, but the tart looks especially appetizing. You might have to take up running marathons...

Actually, I've started participating in a 3-times-a-week exercise class. I hope that helps!
DeleteChocolate, bread, pastry.... Must have! I agree with others that it sounds like your husband needs to hold a party. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow, a man who cooks AND bakes!!!! Don't let him get away! "grin"
ReplyDeleteI'll admit I'm spoiled, and I definitely know how lucky I am to have such a talented husband.
DeleteAll I can say is ...OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! That tart has me drooling! I say, go for the elastic waist and EAT that gorgeous food!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I do! When the bread is baking, it's hard to restrain myself from grabbing it from the oven, slathering it with butter, and stuffing it into my mouth.
DeleteMy goodness! Three pounds only? What a treat to have a live-in chef and baker. Wonderful! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt all looks very scrummy, but particularly those truffles. Very professional looking.
ReplyDeleteThey all look delicious! I would probably gain a lot more than 3 pounds if that was sitting around our house.

Hi Sandra,
ReplyDeleteYour hubbie is definitely a keeper, now, after 36 years of being married, I need you to let me in on your secret :)
I'm like you with fresh bread, I could make one of those delicious looking warm baguettes with butter, do as a meal. I can always remember taking my nieces shopping when they were little and they would both quite happily sit in the trolley together, munching their way through a french stick, whilst I stacked up the groceries. The checkout staff got quite used to having the empty wrapper to scan!
Hubbie isn't much of a one for desserts, so I only really get to indulge when we occasionally eat out, but that pear and apricot tart would grace any restaurant dessert selection and I would definitely give it a try!
Wish him a happy, although maybe not so healthy, retirement!
Yvonne
