What is missed


A simple bowl of fruit salad but I loved the shot when reviewing recent pictures of Boston because it throbs with freshness. The colors are wonderful, especially set against the gleaming white of the kitchen and the burnished brown of the wicker basket in the background. Sylvie and I were agog at the sight of this breakfast treat prepared by Irene, Sylvie's aunt, as we simply can't get the same plump and fresh blueberries and melons in this part of the world. Still, the photo will at least continue to inspire us to keep looking for produce to rival the Boston fare.
