Without giving much clues you probably know the answer to this question,
I I remember when I was still a student learning french for the first time in our language institute, the ffirst important things I’ve learned about french people was their love for good weather, good food, enjoying life and doing a good sport (I would say it’s perfectly described in Pink Martini’s song Je ne veux pas travailler (literally means I don’t want to work). And when it comes to sports three things that preoccupies them, their fondness for petanque, football and of course the pride of the french the Tour de France. I am not really a big fan of this sport (nor any other sports for that matter (you see I am more of a passive sportsman, hehehe I only love watching them) but Tour de France never cease to amaze me on human capacities to push their limit, really impressive !.
So why all this introduction on this biking event ? Well simply because today I am honoring and supporting LIVESTRONG Day a one-day initiative spearheaded by the Lance Armstrong Foundation to raise awareness and funds to fight against Cancer and this will be on May 13,
Yellow is beautiful. Yellow is my favorite color. Yellow is the color of the first Sunday dress sewn by my mom. And the when the sky is yellow it is the day that angels are happy because I did a good act. So for a taste of something yellow, I'm sharing my recipe for Yellow Plum Mini-Pizza and poppy seeds. (Special thanks to Manggy for reminding me :-) that prune is plum in english )

Very pretty, Dhanggit. I purchased yellow plums a month ago and wound up eating them out of hand b/4 I could prepare in a recipe. : ) Poppy seeds and orange flower water are exquisite.

I got a taste of "Tour De France" coz my hb likes to watch it, and esp the magnificent scenery of the French Alps! In future (provided there is still eligible cyclists in Tour De France), whoever who wears the yellow jersey should hold this plum pizza by his side :)

Love the look of this Dhanggit! I'm craving something fruity now...this is a great pizza topping!
