33# Sharing beauty

I must admit, I am very proud of the result of this recipe. 

I have shared these tarts with many friends, and we were all happy. The rose shape make these little cakes non only delicious for the taste but also attractive for their look.

● INGREDIENTS:

FOR THE FROLLA:

2 eggs

100g of sugar

80g of sunflower

380 g of flour

1/2 teaspoon of baking powder (I have used self-raising flour, so no need for adding it)

FOR THE CREAM:

1 egg

  2 tablespoons of sugar

2 tablespoons of flour

  250 ml of milk

some lemon peel

2 apples

I know this recipe is in Italian but once you know the ingredients, it is very easy to follow the video instructions!

  

If, like me, you have some froll left unused....you can make biscuits!
Watch this video.

The kitchen lesson today is.... share the beauty! try to create something beautiful, that makes people surprised... you will see the difference in their face! beautiful images, especially natural shapes like roses, work on unconscious giving a warm feeling of harmony. Sharing beauty is like saving the world.

#32 Way to say thanks

I made this cake to say thank you to a friend which did a favour to me. Funny: anyway this friend was unable to taste it as couldn't collect it and was always busy at work! 

Shame... but my intention was still good and there, and I ended up to eat this cake for a few days :-D

It's a classic lemon drizzle cake plus some blueberries...

There are many recipes on line like this one

The result is nice, but also the original version (only lemon) is good on my opinion. I like the presence of berries only for making some colour.

The kitchen lesson this time is...

...do a favour...

...do a thanks present...

and do not expect anything in return...

Feeling thankful for something is already a great way of approaching life and it is a healthy feeling. If the other person is not there for receiving it, that's fine too... you are anyway creating something nice...that sweet gift will stay with you.
