Light is filtering in broken color through the lemons and cherry flowers and I’m watching a bunch of honey bees floating between pink petals, their sharp buzzing no match for the orchestral arrival of the birds (did you know that songbirds have two sets of vocal cords – humans have one – which allows them to produce two different sounds simultaneously? No wonder they can belt out a tune)….

What do you mean you’ve never had a beetroot latte?
But seriously, to the two of you who clicked on this post, welcome. I hope you love this recipe! …
