Crunchy ladyfingers and pistachios lend contrast to Honey-Roasted Grapes Trifles, which feature black seedless grapes—tossed with honey, olive oil, and butter, then cooked until bursting—and swirls of rich vanilla bean–mascarpone cream.

Hi, I have loved your magazine from the very first issue, and was delighted to see its return.
You asked what we’d like to see; more England, please. Also, if you do another article on Victoria, BC, Canada, could you please include Craigdarroch Castle? It’s the most exquisite place (outside of England, of course!)
Thank you so much for your beautiful magazine.
