Blue Valentines

ZAZ - Je veux

Right now this is my kitchen soundtrack. I love to dance around in my kitchen :)

Clementine Jam

I took 400g of clementines, peeled them and removed skin (at that point I thought "I will never ever do that again! What a stupid, stupid idea!) and 130g of sugar, clementine zest and half a lemon squeezed. Then cooked it for 3-5 minutes and filled it in clean jars. And that it is. Very easy.
And it is delicious and I love the texture and I will have to peel clementines again :D

Thanksgiving Moon

I fell in love with that song. It is DM Stith "Thanksgiving Moon".

A frog who dreams of strawberries

Suppose there are things that you just won't get in life. Like a frog who dreams of strawberries will never get strawberries. It doesn't want to have flies anymore. All it dreams of, is a lovely strawberry and nobody knows why. I have forgotten to draw a strawberry, but just believe me this frog thinks of them.

Deux Hommes Dans Une Ville

Wonderful movie, wonderful soundtrack. One of my faves :)

Fill your heart with cherry jelly

Almond honey hearts filled with cherry jelly.

Recipe:
I took my autumn leaves recipe and changed it a bit, because I really liked the consistency of them. So here it is:

You need:

350 g flour
150 g freshly ground almonds
100 ml of acacia honey
140 g butter
1 tea spoon baking powder
1 packet vanilla sugar
40-50 g powdered sugar
pinch of salt

Mix all ingredients. Put a little more flour in if it is too sticky. Put the dough in the fridge for two hours. Then cut the cookies and bake them for 7-10 minutes around 180 °C. Warm the cherry jelly, put it on the full heart cookie and put the part with the heart shaped hole on top. You can powder them with sugar, but I think it is better to powder the cookies with the hole first and then stick them together. Otherwise the jelly in the middle is not that pretty anymore.
Enjoy.
