May days have been quite wet in UK but that didn’t dampen noel nor me as we had loads of things planned to do this half term.

When the weather is wet, I tend to take him to Indoor Playcentres around Ipswich where you are guaranteed that u’r kids will run riot, enjoy, make new friends and most importantly getting out of the house.As I have taken couple of days off, We all had loads of things to do and to take him around.
His latest trip to Jan’s Madhouse was amazing as he went with his school friends and they had a splendid time there.The next couple days we went to cinemas to watch Spiderman 3 and Pirates of Carribbean. Time has just flown by and its already Friday and he slowly started taking his books out of his book bag to finish his home work.

We had a great time together going around places n meeting friends and I feel content when i see a happy face at the end of day which makes everyhting worthwhile.

Didn’t have time to come up with anything extraordinary for JFI-Jackfruit. To be frank, I am not a great fan of jackfruit, I love to have the ripe ones once in a while but never fancied any curry or anything. So I really looking forward for the round up so that I know what do to next time when I come across jackfruit seeds or raw jackfruit.

In the meantime I was quite happy to try a simple dessert with jackfruit and strawberries in whipped cream and added as a layer on a dry flan. Not many ingredients nor any elaborate method but a simple one with fresh fruit to enjoy after a dinner.

This wonderful forgotten fruit is the theme choice by the lovely Bee and Jai of Jugalbandi for the June, Jihva for Jackfruit and this is it!! My contribution to the great event.

As i was visiting other blogs, i suddenly saw Meeta’s Monthly Mingle and today is the last day, I missed her earlier, Arabian one as well so here I am trying something very simple but elegant Strawberry Meringue Nests.

With so many fresh fruit and Vegetables in the markets, its wonderful to pick those vibrant and deep coloured fruits and try something simple.
Last weekend, we went to Norwich through our wonderful England Countryside and on our way stopped at a farm shop pick my fruit and veggies.
We as a family make sure, the fickle english weather doesn’t dawn our enthusiasm anytime and we make sure we go out on any day and see our beautiful countryside, lovely green moors. An 1 hr drive hrough the countryside is enough for anyone to liven up and there are thousands of walking trails all over the country, so we try discover them here and get walking!!!

Now back to my simple recipe:

Meringue nests and any fresh fruit thats available in that season.
I chose
Strawberries
Kiwi Fruit
Peaches
Apples

Cut the fruit into wedges.

Now for the filling, add whipped cream until it fills to the top and place the fruit on top of it and serve.

Noel was thrilled to look at those fresh fruit on those meringue nest and he is just waiting for his dinner to be served so that he can have this simple and light strawberry meringue nests
