A couple of friends invited me to come over with Adrien tonight. They are taking care of the diner; however they asked us to bring a bottle of red wine and a dessert. I bought a nice bottle of red wine, Cambon la pelouse. But no way to buy a dessert. Founding some fresh blueberries looking delicious in my supermarket made up my mind. I will bake a blackcurrant tart. You can serve this tart with some wipped cream or Swiss double cream!
