That's a lovely picture. They grow around here, 3 types, white, pink, and
red, with corresponding fruit interiors. The red flower is just freakin'
bewyutiful!
We had the manchego & quince jelly bites up in Alb~ cook-in. The paste, or
better, jelly, is not as sweet as it looks. We think they called those bites
Romeo&Juliets, but we dinnt rilly know. We called 'em that anyways.
