Breakfasts. They’re supposedly the foundation of everyday and yet I fail to prepare one that would energize the kids, hubby and myself. It has been my goal to wake up earlier so I can have all the time to make…
Doughnuts by request
There are a lot of baked goodies that son1 would request from time to time. I could easily make almost all of them except for doughnuts…I found this recipe from youtube but I changed it a slightly. My dilemma was…
Butterfly Shrimps
To be happy over someone’s misfortune is not my thing but to be thankful that I am one who doesn’t have allergy with shrimps must be the same thing. We’re all shrimp lovers at home. It doesn’t matter which dish,…
Oreo Cookie Cake – More like Oreo cheesecake
We first got to savor a slice of Oreo Cake from a cafê that daughter and I frequent. We really liked it, even my older son who is very particular with cakes liked it too…When we visited mom-in-law at my…

Mohr im Hemd

Simple Carbonara
I would like to call this simple dish four-ingredient Carbonara but counting everything in – including pasta, there’s actually more and I forgot to include two other ingredients in this photo – parmesan and pepper. So let’s say four-ingredient Carbonara…
Cupcake Sprinkles & WBFC 27
