  2. This sounds amazing. I've gotten into trying out different fruit curds lately and this one is definitely a different flavor! I mean, I thought about lime curd but the cardamom is a nice twist on it.

  5. I am on a huge cardamon kick, probably because I just bought a big ol' jar of it a couple weeks ago. I shouldn't be reading all these yummy food blogs right before lunch, this looks so good.
