Easter Lamb

Another childhood memory now, that I'm grown up, made by myself: A sweet Easter Lamb for Easter Sunday breakfast. When I was little, my sister always said that the ass of the lamb is sooo gross and that it is soooo disgusting to eat an ass.... well, in the end I never ever ate the ass because I was really disgusted. And why did she do that?? Just to have one piece of cake more than me!!

Easter Picnic

Many many goodies for our Easter picnic in the middle of nature!

Why Love Italy?

That's why I love Italy: fresh fruit and vegetable markets everywhere!!!

Chocolate Mousse Cake

Chocolate Mousse Cake

Well, that's a PERFECT birthday cake!
I made this cake for my own birthday, and took it to the restaurant when celebrating with my friends. Out of experience, normally half a cake remains.... but with this one, even the last crumb was gone!

Milan Departure And Arrival

Look what I found while I was waiting to get on the train in Milan:

SOYJOY bars, my all time favourite bars!!! Finally! Once I got some as a present from a trip to Hong Kong, but I couldn-t find any in Italy, or even Europe. Imagine, I even wrote to the producer asking where to find them! No luck anyway. And now - I bumped into them by chance at the station. Of course I bought many many straight away. Many different flavours like orange, strawberry, plum, goji berry, banana, blueberry.Took all of them! They come from Japan and it seems they built up a distribution in Europe now. So happy!

Milan Milan

Thanks Grace!

It was a great sunny and warm shopping weekend in Milan. This was our breakfast:
A selection of Italian bread. This bakery was sooo cute!

 Our lunch in Via della Spiga - the high fashion shopping road....

Really top quality food, very very nice. The bresaola ham was cut paper thin, the Parmesan top, and the olive oil very tasty. The fruit was so fresh and sweet, like straight from the field.
After all that and more (no pics sorry), there was no need for the mini bar in the hotel room! Even if it had some really nice things in it, like very special varieties of nuts.

Mini Cakes

Now I'm perfectly equipped for making only mini cakes in the future if we don't have any guests. That means we can satisfy our sweet tooth without overeating on it.

Thanks to Grace, I'm now the proud owner of some really cute new mini cake tins:

Soon I will come up with some recipes!
