From her blueberry bowl to the tiny, rose-colored Penny Marshall glasses she wore onstage, the brief speech was distinctly Parker Posey, in that it was one of the night’s coolest moments.

There are popular flavours like pineapple ice, rainbow and blueberry sour.

On Sunday afternoons, I scatter halved strawberries or blueberries across a parchment-lined baking sheet, drizzle them with honey or maple syrup, and roast them until their edges bubble and the whole kitchen smells like jam.
