BILLY

Speaking of Billy in my previous post, I'd like to introduce him to u. He's a bit sick this period but he'll get over it. Isn't he gorgeous;!

Love Dogs. Hate Cats.

I always had a preference to dogs, and we always had a dog at home. But once, my dad dared to bring a cat. She was vanished 2 months ago. We never learned anything about her but I wasn't reasponsible for her loss. Really. She just disappeared. So, now, back home I don't have a dog anymore but my friend Alex has a really cute one, Billy. I'd like to have one but my parents don't want any living creatures among them, apart form their children hopefully. So as soon as I move I'd like to get my own puppy. And train him to get the cats :)

The Butterfly effect

A butterfly came yesterday to my balcony and it brought me many happy thoughts. First of all, spring is coming, Easter time and thn summer. My favorite seasons. I like Easter because everything in the air shouts that nature is blooming but at the same time there is a strange and sweet melancholy everywhere. And I was thinking, I always wanted to live in nature. I hate big cities, the noise, polution. I'm not a real city boy. I'd like to live on an island, enjoying walks to the sea or to a forest, cooking with natural products from my garden (or someone else's garden!), fishing and hunting. On the other hand, living this way by myself would be very lonely. I couldn't have beared to do that by myself. And I don't believe that many people think my way. Nobody would like to stay in a small village or in an island for a long time. I'm not against evolution and technology. I'd have my mac, my TV my dvd and the internet even to the smallest island. But the moment u turn off TV and u go out to the beach for a walk is magic. I wish someday I could live my dream with good company. But, isn't it strange that a tiny creature like a butterfly caused me all these thoughts in an instant? I don't know why I wrote about this. But lately I had lack of inspiration so Dr.M told me I should write everything I think. Even the silliest of my ideas. So here we are.

Cook Your Way (Breaking up)

Imagine that u broke up some days ago. You're feeling awful. You have eaten every bar of chocolate you found in the fridge, or whatever seemed to be a chocolate bar! You run out off candy and want something fast to get over your depression. Here's a fast, easy and delicious recipe for a full carb dessert. Recovers hope in you. Try it.

CONDENSED MILK AND COCONUT BALLS

-1 tin of condensed milk
-2 bags of trimmed coconut

Put the milk in a bowl and mix all the coconut in. Using a wooden spoon, mix everything up until u have a thick paste. You can add some more coconut if the mixture isn't thick enough. Now, roll small balls, using your hands. Put them in the fridge and it's ready.

SPECIAL VARIATION FOR ANTHONY

Make a chocolate ganache. Bring to boil 250 gr. heavy cream. Chop 230gr. bittersweet chocolate in a large bowl and mix the cream in. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Add small bits of butter (60gr) in 2 additions. When the butter is fully incorporated, the ganache should be smooth and glossy. Now put one by one, the balls, into the ganache and using a spoon let them be covered. Put them in a plate using a piece of waxpaper and refrigerate them until chocolate is firm. Now u have coconut and chocolate balls.
