Spring day!

Hello everyone!

Before saying anything else, thanks to all the people that help this blog to reach the 1,000 visits! You made my day!

I never thought this could go that far, being another blog on the enormous Internet.

Today I’m not writing nowhere else but from a park! The sun is shinning although the wind that blows every 2 minutes. And it’s quite interesting watching the people pasing by. It looks like a nonstopping runway of differents styles and faces.

Bussines men and women, younth back from school, mothers with strollers, boys and girls wearing the lastest fashion, lovely couples, and of course, nothing would be completed without the turists and their cameras!

Oooh! And look! Runners! How brave they are! I wouldn’t be able to run at midday when the sun is that hot.

Getting into the day, within less than 2 weeks, we’ll be celebrating Sant George (Sant Jordi). Books and roses will be sold to demonstrate your love to your beloved one.  And for my surprise, i do not see any sing on libraries or shops to promote it. People doesn’t seem to be sighted for those things.

I maybe get inspiration to write some poetry or short novel. I think old poets did that on spring, watching flowers growing, the birds singing and butterflies flirting everywhere around, didn’t they?

Sorry for the long post, but today I feel like writing and nothing on Internet was interesting enough to share with you guys.

I hope, in case I’m not able to make any new post by the time Sant Jordi is here, you spend a nice time with your loved ones.

If you have any suggestion of a book you’ve read that you like to share,  or you like to share your spring feelings, don’t be afraid and leave a comment below, I’d love to read them.

See you soon,

Easter eggs!

Hi! 

I thing it's been just a few days since my last post, and maybe because it's holidays and I see cakes and chocolates everywhere and I like to share with you those recipes.

Today cake is a well known but with a different appearance. I mean brownies, but perfect for easter, because of the shape! If you usually like to paint eggs for childrends, and after these days, throw them away, maybe you can use those instead to contain the dessert. And with a little patience, also, paint them.

The recipe is in both in spanish and english in a webpage called La receta de la felicidad , where you can find how to prepare those tiny cute things.

I hope you like it, and leave a comment below and tell me what do you usually do for easter. Not only to eat but for the childrens of the family. 

Have fun and enjoy the rest of the holidays.

See you soon,

Changing eggs for macarons!

Hi everyone! It's been a while since my last post, and I am sorry. The nice weather and the good company are the ones to blame. 

Today I want to share with you something sweet and according to the easter holidays. 

Although you may know already, in some McDonald's there's an area dedicated to coffee and bakery.  For some reason I don't know why, a few months ago, after having a meal on that restaurant, on my way out I saw a picture of one of the most famous French desserts, and no, I did not see a croissant, but a Macaron!! I couldn't believe they were selling those in there! 

That colourful mini-cake is, a part of adorable and sort of expensive sweet for its size (about 0,90-1€ each), one of the most sweetest and delicious thing you can ever eat. And as always, those things become even more tasty accompanied with a good cappuccino and, obviously with a great company. 

                                

Usually, the color matches its favour, so you can find infinity of varieties. Chocolate, strawberry, berry, pistachio, orange, lemon... and a way long list. 

I know that with easter came decorated eggs, really colourful eggs, but what about doing something with those instead?

I would like to share with you all a webpage of cooking lessons, but made easily. It's called SORTED, where some guys cook in a easy way something that really stands out. 

So if you want to know how you can do bake your own macarons, feel free to click on the image of my experience. 

Don't forget to subscribe/follow and leave a comment below and if you try to cook those, tell me how it went. 

See you soon,
