It’s Labor Day weekend, and for a little longer, it’s still peach season. All the more reason to take advantage now, and you won’t find a better use for local peaches than my Sparkling Peach Sangria.

This light and airy Berry Cream Cake might just be the quintessential summer dessert. The creamy topping showcases whatever berries you choose to strew across it. For added flavor, feel free to pass a bowl of lightly sugared berries (not shown) of either a single type of berry you’ve used or maybe all of them, mixed together.

I have been having a love affair this year with…Julia Childs Berry Clafoutis. Maybe someday I’ll complete that sentence with news in the romance department but in the meantime, I’m not complaining a bit about settling with this simple, custardy fruit dessert. Clafoutis is kind of a cross between a cake and a pudding and it is everything, This year it’s a simple pleasure that’s been like a little salvation.

There was a time an Easy Mixed Berry Crisp like this was a big splurge, but with berries so available these days, fresh and frozen and so much more reasonably priced then they used to be, it’s a much more affordable splurge. And this Easy Mixed Berry Crisp is so worth it. It’s super simple but the berry flavor is outstanding.

Every year I go through the same thing. I see the small signs of fall coming, but I just ignore them. I never want summer to end and I never want to think about our Minnesota winter to come. But one thing that’s a sure sign of that impending change of seasons is what I want to eat and how I want to cook. And today I was thinking Berry Souffle Pancakes.
