    Chocolate Berries Madeleines

    These Chocolate Berries Madeleines are seriously the best I’ve made. And they’re so pretty as well. Almost too pretty to eat. Almost. The original recipe is from this website, it’s not my recipe. The only thing I added was 1 tablespoon of pure cacao and the berries. And it’s seriously to die for. They’re that good.  😀 I really recommend you to give these madeleines a try. And madeleines in general. Because they’re delicious and easy to make. They make the perfect little treat for coffee and tea. Amy, from fixfeastflair.com, used Guittard Hot Chocolate, but I didn’t have that so I used what I did have, Cadbury Fairtrade instantánea 1kg…

    Review on the Book Joy in the Morning//Betty Smith

    Joy in the morning on Bookdepository «A glad affirmation that love can accomplish the impossible.»-Chicago Tribune about the lovely book Joy in the morning Well, what can I say about this book? I loved it, simply loved it. For me, it is the best book I’ve ever read. Not because it’s written in the best way possible, but because it talked to me. This book is just the sweetest and loveliest book I’ve ever read. You will love Annie’s wittiness and Carl’s tenderness towards Annie. It warmed my heart every time he called her «sweetheart». I could really imagine how sweet he talked to her. When I read this book I…

    Vegetable and Chorizo Stew

    This Vegetable and Chorizo Stew comes in handy when you have a lot of great veggies in the house and you want something quick but filling to eat. A lot of times I commented to you that I like «shopping» in my own kitchen, to see what I can make without going to the grocery store. Because, at the least for me, it’s not easy not going every other day to the supermarket. Are you in the same situations as I am? Then I know you understand me. A few months back I wrote two posts about saving money at the grocery store, and about food waste, especially at Christmas.…

    Yogurt Dill Biscuits

    These Yogurt Dill Biscuits are an excellent choice as an appetizer or just as a homemade snack. A few days ago, I surfed on the internet to find something savory to bake. There’s a Romanian saying that goes like this: If you don’t have anything to do, you find something. Well, I did find something to bake. And not just to eat what I baked, but also, for the joy of baking. Do you feel like this sometimes? That you want to bake something, to make something at home, just for the joy of baking? And especially in the winter seasons, am I right? So, I searched for something to bake…

    Recenzie Contract de Casatorie – Gárdonyi Géza

    Aceasta carte – Contract de casatorie – a fost, pentru mine, o carte exceptionala si ma bucur din suflet ca am dat peste ea din intamplare. Nu va pot spune cum de am cumparat-o sau ce m-a atras la ea pentru ca nu am citit nimic de Gárdonyi Géza pana acum. In primul rand, vreau sa va spun ca mi-a placut foarte mult Contract de casatorie, m-a incantat chiar. De cand am inceput acel challenge sa nu mai cumpar carti cel putin 6 luni, am inceput sa citesc ce aveam in biblioteca personala. Iar aceasta carte e una din ele. Nu mai tin minte cand am cumparat-o de la anticariat.…
