O how I wish I had a place to buy such a tart, it looks so yummy! I am a newer reader and follower of your blog (if I've already left a comment containing this info, I'm sorry ... I've been preoccupied and may have mentioned that previously) and I will be visiting your blog so I can do some catch-up reading of prior posts.

Maggie, that tart is making my mouth water. It's almost too pretty to eat - I'm sure you noticed that I said "almost". What a precious V'tine card. Thank you so much for linking to my party. Happy Valentine's Day! laurie

Mmm. Maggie, that's a delicious looking pastry. Perfect for Valentine's Day. Too bad such a patisserie doesn't exist here.
Happy Valentine's Day.

I'm a tad late with my wishes, but they are heartfelt all the same. Sending hugs and love across the pond to special friends. Your tart looks delicious! Hugs ~ Sarah

That tart makes me want to rush to the kitchen and start baking so they will be cooled by dinnertime!

I'm imagining the custard underneath the strawberry in the tart - soooo good!

Just stumbled upon your blog whilst looking out for creative types in Normandy! I was supposed to be visiting my own idyll this past weekend but a chest infection has laid me low (boohiss) so had to cancel...I am dribbling suitably at the tarte aux fraises & hoping to be sitting in my atelier next week with cafe/calva, tarte & husband. Loving your creativity & will continue to follow. Bonne printemps :)
