Cape Gooseberries


Cape Gooseberries
Pastel 6 x 6
Sold

Our delightful hosts Claude and Martine from "La Maison de la Treille" in Tourtour France, served this intriguing little fruit at breakfast with other delicacies. I had been served this fancy little fruit before but did not know anything about it. I found some interesting information about it here. It does not only make a beautiful garnish; it tastes great too!

  1. Wonderful painting of the Gooseberries. They make me think of summers with my grandmother in Minnesota.
