For the batter for each batch, cream 11/2 sticks butter,  11/2 cup sugar, then add 3 eggs, one at a time, then 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tbsp baking powder, and then alternate 1 cup milk and 23/4 cup flour. For the frosting, beat together an 8 oz pack of mascaporne, and 1 small container cream (2 cups), 1/4 cup sugar, and a tsp vanilla. He wanted to make them even more special, so he added some frozen berries at the bottom of the cupcake before adding the batter. Friends' kids helped decorating. They were amazing!

Peel Fava beans, cook in salted water for 4 mins, then shock in cold water and peel the beans. Slice fresh radishes. Clean Watercress. Make a dressing (I did white balsamic, olive oil, salt and pepper). Add some fresh mint and some diced mozerella (feta might have been nice too). Serve on top of grilled bread.

Great start to July:  Grate whole corn on a box grater. Heat ghee, add mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chilii and ginger paste, and add grated corn + milk. Stir and cook, add salt, a pinch of sugar. Serve warm, garnished with lemon juice, cilantro and coconut.
