Monday Morsel: Nigella's Jumbleberry Crumble

What is a "jumbleberry" you ask? Well, in Nigella Lawson's recipe (below), jumbleberry refers to mixed summer fruits...even frozen ones, and this seems very appealing right now.

I would like to be friends with the English chef and "domestic goddess" Nigella Lawson. Many of her recipes hint that she goes on amazing vacations, and I'll bet I could tag along on her yacht, and she would think I was just the best guest ever. Nonetheless, I chose this particular Very English-sounding one to share because it's bound to have festive variety-of-berries colors in it (in honor of the Olympics and all the countries recognized there) and be a refreshing dessert (in honor of the summer heat).

Monday Morsel: English Desserts, Digestive Biscuits

In honor of the upcoming Olympics in England, I'm sharing some Monday Morsels that will focus on chefs and dessert recipes from England for the next few weeks. Chocolate Fridge Cake from Jamie Oliver looks very English and refrigerator-cool. I've not tried it, but I love that the recipe includes "digestive biscuits."  The mere mention of "digestive biscuits" makes me feel like I'm eating something healthy, even though I'm pretty sure I'm not.

Here's the recipe:
