 Hello, friends. I’m writing from a motel in a truck stop along the I-5, somewhere in central California. I think I’ve mentioned before my fondness for little respites in places most people think of as nowhere. Because sometimes what I need is a little heat, an uninterrupted sky, and a swimming pool. And I’ve got... Brian @ A Thought For Food - May 8, 2012 - 3:10 pm
Those quail eggs are so beautiful! Looks like we’re both on the road a lot recently! Hope you’re doing well! Pamela - May 8, 2012 - 3:17 pm
Lovely pictures, agreed – the quail eggs are beautiful. My next question was going to be the taste, but you answered that already, thank you. :D) Eileen - May 8, 2012 - 3:28 pm
Egg and greens on good toast is one of my favorite combinations. Lovely! Tinabobina99 - May 8, 2012 - 3:45 pm
I’m off to the store to get fava greens, or spinach if they don’t have it. This really does sound so refreshing! Thanks for sharing. Lynda - May 8, 2012 - 4:08 pm
I envy your trip. And those eggs and greens look magnificent. Nicole @Eat This Poem - May 8, 2012 - 4:15 pm
The quail eggs are gorgeous! And amen to simplicity, too. Jeanine - May 8, 2012 - 4:53 pm
I don’t think anyone else could make a motel truck stop look so dreamy! :) Katie - May 8, 2012 - 6:12 pm
I didn’t know you could eat fava greens! I’m glad to find out, as I have a whole mess of fava beans growing in the garden. charlotte au chocolat - May 8, 2012 - 7:12 pm
hope you enjoy your vacation (even if you are working)! Heat, endless skies and a pool sound pretty wonderful to me! Ms. T - May 8, 2012 - 7:15 pm
Sigh. These photos are a feast and a vacation for my eyes. Thank you for sharing your postcard from nowhere. ileana - May 8, 2012 - 8:22 pm
I just bought quail eggs this weekend, and we had them for dinner last night on a breakfast pizza. Thanks for this toast idea. By the way, I have some pheasant eggs, too. Any ideas for those? la domestique - May 8, 2012 - 8:50 pm
Love me some quail eggs. They have a way of making toast and greens feel special. Good luck wrapping up your project, and enjoy the sun! Anna @ the shady pine - May 8, 2012 - 10:28 pm
Love your pictures! The quail eggs are stunning little gems! Sasha - May 9, 2012 - 1:58 am
And what a motel, what a sky, what a setting! I have a feeling that the picture with the palm reflection is going to be in my head for a while. It is achingly beautiful. There is just something about quail eggs. There is a restaurant in Mumbai that uses quail eggs instead of hen eggs in their salad nicoise which I thought always made the salad slightly more elegant, slightly more special. You’ve inspired me to go pick some up to slightly bedazzle my breakfast. Carrie | acookgrowsinbrooklyn - May 9, 2012 - 6:26 am
I’m a sucker for a soft boiled egg with a runny yolk. I have never come across fava greens – I wonder what they taste like? Sarah - May 9, 2012 - 7:05 am
I was JUST talking to someone about quail eggs. How beautiful. And married with one of my favorite meals: greens on toast. This is my kind of dish, Kimberley! leela - May 9, 2012 - 7:49 am
yum! so glad you are clearing your head for your big project. Gastrofine - May 9, 2012 - 7:57 am
I have actually never worked with quail eggs before, but they look incredible. Love the flavor combination here. Think I might try it and add some paper thin slices of red onion as well. Iris - May 9, 2012 - 8:18 am
I love quail eggs and have not had them in sooo long. Inspired to go find some! Hannah - May 9, 2012 - 11:11 am
I want to hear about your big project with rich, generously flavored food! I hope there’s a ‘reveal’ soon. And, of course, lovely post. Love me a runny yolk, I do. SG - May 10, 2012 - 7:06 pm
you rule so much. that pool shot is sending me upwards and then downwards into the blue. sarah - May 10, 2012 - 8:23 pm
gorgeous, as always. I love that second photo. Juicer - May 18, 2012 - 10:35 am

 It’s that time of year. The evenings are stretching out and I find myself relaxing with the knowledge that it won’t be dark at 6 pm, or even 7. This lends itself to long walks with Beach House on repeat, mental reminders to appreciate that shade of blue Joan Didion was so enamored with, glasses... by Kimberley show hide 56 comments Stephanie @ okie dokie artichokie - May 1, 2012 - 5:59 pm
This looks pretty damn perfect on a summer’s eve. Light and refreshing and gorgeous to boot! Love everything about it. BTW, people buy light coconut milk? lol… Brian @ A Thought For Food - May 1, 2012 - 6:00 pm
First of all, I was on your site maybe 5 minutes ago, wondering if you had written a new post. And now here it is! Thank goodness for Facebook, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have checked back for a few more days. I did see the post on Sprouted Kitchen and I’ve been anxious to make it ever since I came across it. I’ve been on a coconut milk kick recently and I just know that it would make for the most wonderful popsicle (or ice cream) base. And, from the look of these pictures, it was a huge success. Katrina @ Warm Vanilla Sugar - May 1, 2012 - 6:25 pm
These look so awesome. I’m seriously going to try these this week! Heather @opgastronomia - May 1, 2012 - 7:05 pm
I’m melting. These look amazing! sarah - May 1, 2012 - 7:11 pm
Oh! Beautiful! They look incredible. {and you added cardamom. my heart is yours.} I can’t wait to make these. Cookie and Kate - May 1, 2012 - 7:24 pm
Oh man, these popsicles look so perfect for a warm, muggy day like today. Brilliant! This may be the final nudge I needed to buy a popsicle mold. I love me some warm summer nights with Beach House! leela - May 1, 2012 - 7:29 pm
oh baby these look good! charlotte au chocolat - May 1, 2012 - 7:39 pm
these look so gorgeous! I must get into making popsicles ASAP. Stacy - May 1, 2012 - 7:54 pm
These are gorgeous, and sound delicious… Like summertime itself. Jeanine - May 1, 2012 - 8:01 pm
so pretty, I can’t wait to make these! I heart summer… sara - May 1, 2012 - 9:48 pm
it always comes to this. I am painfully reminded that i do not have a popsicle mold and I NEED one! They look so delicious and I feel like they’re easier to eat in popsicle form. Gorgeous photos, my friend! Sharyn Dimmick - May 2, 2012 - 7:00 am
Mmm, cardamom. Great addition to coconut popsicles. I’d mix the strawberries in though — don’t like chunks in my ice cream. Katherine - May 2, 2012 - 7:02 am
These have me wishing for hot summer days! New York has been weirdly chilly! Delicious as always! Iris - May 2, 2012 - 7:12 am
These look so good! I desperately want to start making popsicles, but it’s still cold here in NY arghhh NicoleD - May 2, 2012 - 7:26 am
Gorgeous!! I am all intoxicated with spring right now, but this is making me long for summer! I HAVE to roast some strawberries. I’m so behind on that trend. la domestique - May 2, 2012 - 8:13 am
I can’t wait to try these- and there’s cardamom, my favorite spice! I will never turn down ice cream. Megan Gordon - May 2, 2012 - 9:30 am
Holy beauties. These look wonderful! I feel like we’re not quite in popsicle mode here in Seattle yet, but I’m really, really sensing that it’s on its way. xox!(and why have I NEVER made roasted strawberries? What’s wrong with me?) Melissa // thefauxmartha - May 2, 2012 - 9:58 am
Roasted strawberry anything, I’m game. These look perfect for summer! SG - May 2, 2012 - 2:59 pm
oh man. i wish i was eating one right now. and then another. Ashley - May 2, 2012 - 4:33 pm
Roasted strawberries seem to be all the rage this spring! These look amazing. Photo inspiration at its finest! kickpleat - May 2, 2012 - 5:43 pm
I roasted berries last summer and spooned them over yogurt (all berries are great roasted!) I love the look of these beauts!! So making these…you know, when popsicle weather heads north. kale - May 3, 2012 - 12:46 am
What a great product of inspiration! Love that photo of the roasted strawberries. Cara - May 3, 2012 - 6:23 am
I knew there was a reason I needed to buy some popsicle molds! These are gorgeous :) Culinary School: Three Semesters of Life, Learning, and Loss - May 4, 2012 - 10:40 am
One of my culinary school chefs said “we eat with our eyes.” He would have loved your scrumptious popsicle. As do I! Marissa | Pinch and Swirl - May 4, 2012 - 12:11 pm

Roasted strawberries! Would have never thought of doing that. I’m going to have to try this one out :) pj brown - May 18, 2012 - 4:50 am
these look delicious, and so simple. can you tell me where you’ve found popsicle molds this shape? i’ve not seen them. and, any reason you couldn’t substitute, say peaches? Candace - May 24, 2012 - 11:03 pm
These look amazing! Which popsicle molds did you use? I am looking on amazon and a lot of reviews complain about having a hard time getting them out of the molds. Linda - June 1, 2012 - 8:53 am
I can’t imagine a more luxurious popsicle flavor than roasted strawberry & coconut. Must make. Along with avocado, cantaloupe, watermelon mojito, and thai iced tea! shirley cox - June 24, 2012 - 2:54 pm
looks delisicious becky - June 27, 2012 - 6:01 pm
okay 2 things….1st why not “light” coconut milk? I have a can I bought @ trader joes. 2nd where did you find that popsicle mold? Im looking for that shape & its impossible to find! thanks! becky s. - June 27, 2012 - 6:02 pm
okay 2 things…1st why not light coconut milk? I ahve a can I bought @ Trader Joes. 2nd where did you find those popsicle molds? I have been looking for that exact shape & its impossible to find! thanks! Kari@Loaves n Dishes - January 29, 2013 - 4:44 pm
I almost don’t know what to say about these popsicles they look A-maze-ing! Love, love, love that you roasted the strawberries! Dwayne Carter - March 26, 2013 - 11:58 am
Hello, I work at Yoga Journal magazine. We are doing a story on fruit popsicles for our June issue. We love the 4th photo of this post. The one with the dark background with the popsicles stacked. We would love to use this for our popsicle page. Could we use this photo? We can pay for it. We would need the hi res version as soon as we can get it to us as we are on deadline. The one we lined bp before fell through at the last minute. Thanks so much! Cheers Su - May 14, 2013 - 11:59 pm
