Alles zu meiner „Backerei“, Rezepte, Fotos, „Yummy Things“
Thanks to the 1st of may holiday, we have a really long weekend ahead! and, to make it even more perfect, Inge from Munich and Kristina from Hamburg are coming for a private „reunion“ party of former collegues from the company we are working for. I am looking so forward to meet them again! They wanna arrive at coffee time today, and I needed an easy but yummy sunday cake.
What shall you do with all those fresh asparagus, ready to buy nearly everywhere now? I was looking for nice ideas at Martha's website - I found the asparagus tart! so I blowed the dust off my tart pan and started right away. The tasty recipe included gruyere and ricotta cheese (which sounds great I guess) and I want to spread some fresh herbs over the finished quiche later, lets see what's available in the garden?! maybe some rosemary...can't wait…
Finally - the cookie decoration movie is finished, and I love it! As usual, it took my hubby quite some time to finish it (getting up every morning very early to work on the movie before regular work...and in the evening: sitting in front of the mac until midnight...) But: even the cookie queen Rosey is now impressed of the movie, and what more can we wish for? but now: relax and watch three amateurs and one pro doing some…
After a sleepless night, counting the minutes down and totally excited, the day finally came: the cookie queen herself, Rosey Sugar flew all the way from Tokyo to Germany, just to let us join a tutorial with her….until the last minute I was not sure, if she really gonna pop up at our house, but, yes, she really did.
As you can see from our faces – we are just about to start with preparing the icing. EASY! and so excited!…we still do believe, that we can manage to prepare some pretty, cute and nice cookies today, well, just like the cookie queen!! – well, our skills in the baking area are not that bad, aren’t they?, at least we thought so.
After Bratwurst and Sauerkraut we tried some total 'non-German' dish for our special guest from Japan.
We love french toast. This is a new recipe that we have tried in little baking pots together with banana slices.
A classical Valentine`s Day dilemma. Should the kitten get nothing ? (Un)fortunately a our house there are no kittens yet, so we can have it all. The card, the mini cakes and the Valentine.
