    Blueberry Ice Cream at Julie’s Birthday Party

    Blueberries are a regular theme on Triple Motion. This is the story of our latest blueberry experiment. When Julie’s 30th birthday-party was approaching, we were trying to decide what kind of ice cream to make. We ventured out to the shops. PETER: These locally-grown blueberries are great. These aren’t the native blaeberries, but they’re still […]

    Lemon and apricot pancakes

    As a kid, I never liked pancakes -they had too much grease and too much egg. The thought of the annual ritual of Pancake Day filled me with dread. You can only imagine how happy I was to discover the Triple Motion buttermilk pancake! These fluffy little nuggets are a joy to eat and I can (and do) eat […]

When the promised dessert did not materialise I somehow ended up telling my five guests about the joys […]
