COFFEE MOCHA GATEAU…& a hope for the future!
“Everything that is done in the world is done by hope. “ Martin Luther King The new year brings with it new promise… As I begin to type this post, Obama is about to be sworn in. The world awaits a new US President, one with promise for a better future, one who believes ‘Yes We Can’, & also that ‘Anything is possible’! Our son took the days’ news to read in school today, which included interesting trivia about Barack Obama. His classmates enjoyed the bits & bobs. They were kicked to hear that his favourite snacks are Chocolate-peanut protein bars, & not some boring stuff. Also were thrilled that…

SAVOURY BUCKWHEAT VEGETABLE TART…ATOM!
“Light, refined, learned and noble, harmonious and orderly, clear and logical, the cooking of France is, in some strange manner, intimately linked to the genius of her greatest men.” Rouff Marcel Salut! There’s a new event at Antonio Tahan’s blog that has had me inspired ever since I read about it.

Each month a traditional dish of the region we are visiting will be presented.” “The first challenge for A Taste of the Mediterranean is a stop-over…

THAI GREEN CURRY…inspired by RED!
“Red is obviously such a stimulating color, and it has so many connotations.” P. J. Harvey It’s nice to be inspired by colour, & it’s sometimes amazing the wonders it can work on your food. Saw this month that Click was back, & the theme for the month is RED. Everywhere I looked I saw red. The tomatoes sang to me, the red chilies called my name, & the bell peppers enticed me no end.

Chocolate Yogurt Cake … deliciously healthy!
“A falta de pan, buenas son tortas. If there’s no bread, cakes will do.”Spanish proverb There was a time when I had my fixed list of things to bake, & everyone was pretty satisfied & happy. I would bake brownies, then oatmeal cookies, then muffins,then a pound cake, chocolate chip cookies, lemon cake…& so on back to brownies. This loop continued until around September 2007. Then suddenly one day my browser accidentally stumbled into Jugalbandi. I couldn’t for the love of me figure out what it was all about, but I suddenly found ‘real’ recipes, beautiful pictures, & people who could talk to each other. Yes, I had been living…
