I needed some orange jam to use in a cake recipe, so I decided to go for a classic take on fruit jam. Actually, the most complicated part was freeing the orange from all of the peel, the skin, the seeds...

Wohoo, anybody home?

I know, I know.


It's today that most families unite to celebrate christmas.
But in our case, we celebrated ahead schedule, because now not everyone can be here.
So today lunch was really simple, and at night we attended a dinner party thrown by a 
family we're friends with.

Tanned bread.

The thing is: food belongs either over the table or inside bellies,


never in the trash can.
The other day, I baked a lot of christmas cookies. And because of a whim of mine, I have cut them again after baking, so that they would all be round and equal.
Well, what to do with 3 cups leftover cookie crumble? Bread!

Squirrel!

To brighten up the life of a boy who's got a serious flu and can't even leave home,
I baked some squirrels.

As in that old saying: more haste, more speed,
when there are deadlines to meet.

Special breakfast.

Since the year is ending and everything seems like a wacky race,
at least breakfast can be cute.
Mini panetone that simply showed up at my place + tea in the teapot
that I just received as a gift. :)
(Thanks, Ric!)

I like many things, one of them is food with a roasted crust.

So today I roasted sweet potatoes to eat with some broccoli (apparently, the wad I bought will never end).

Zucchini and ricota pancakes.

This time I was inspired by Flavia, I made pancakes for lunch.
I like them because they're easy to make and always delicious.

Banana spread. Yummm.
I still don't know what to do so that it won't acquire that pinkish/lilac tone, which I find a little strange. But it's so good on a bread as a breakfast!
