This shake is a Valentine’s present from my lousy memory. Yes, really. Those strawberries weren’t even for me. On Tuesday I bought two punnets of strawberries for Ninka. She ate one on Tuesday (on pancakes with Nutella), and the other was meant for yesterday.
Except Daddy forgot all about the strawberries in the fridge.
Today I came across them by chance. Imported strawberries bought in the middle of a frost-free winter are really only good for one thing. A shake. And you have to sweeten them, because those imports aren’t exactly bursting with sweetness.
It didn’t turn out badly at all. I got a Valentine’s shake courtesy of my memory lapse and, in a way, of Ninka (she could’ve asked for them, couldn’t she?). A perfectly decent shake. And ridiculously easy to make. I recommend it.
Ooooh, I almost forgot. A certain folk artist, a poet really, from around Skarżysko, asked me to share his verse with you. So here goes:
Sweet girl of mine,
My Valentine!
For the flowers he brought today,
A strawberry shake should come his way.
