Heart for Mothers’ DayFriday May 17 2013
Did you spoil your mom for mothers’ day? I had a little lack of inspiration this year, so I devoted my weekend to baking a cake for my mom. Oh well, a cake… More a giant banana bread (with whole wheat and dades) in the shape of a heart. For the recipe, check out the website of Albert Heijn, just use absolutely no more than half the indicated amount of sugar and syrup. I added a little game of Ruzzle on top, as my mom is kind of addicted to Ruzzle. I made the game of white marzipan, colored pink with a drop of red food coloring, and some choco letters on top. Warning: you will most probably end up with your entire kitchen covered in melted chocolate… But we did enjoy eating it!
p.s. ja, ik weet het, de K en de D liggen op de foto’s nog verkeerd om!

What’s for dinner?!Wednesday May 15 2013
What’s for dinner? Vietnamese spring rolls!
A couple of days ago, one of my friends came by, who hardly ever takes to to cook extensively. So whenever he comes by, I find it extra fun to try something new, with which he can help along. This time I’d set my mind on a recipe in the Allerhande, the local supermarkets magazine: Vietnamese spring rolls! I can say a very successful and tasteful experiment it was. I didn’t know it was so easy to make these yourself. Spring rolls are really easy to make, and aside from the frying bit, quite slim as well. It’s great to experiment with some ingredients, adding for instance shrimp, chicken, egg, or bean sprouts. The perfect party snack indeed! The recipe can be found on the website of the Albert Heijn, so that I will not repeat it here. But I will give you the necessary nutritional information of course. Bon appetit!

What’s for dinner? 5-spices shrimpies!
When I ate at my girlfriends home a week ago, she made some very delicious shrimps. Shel told me then which ingredients she’d used, but hey, three glasses of some bad prosecco later… So last night I wanted to eat shrimps again, and kind of guessed how she’d made them so tasty. Here’s my recipe: Cut the garlic, ginger, red pepper, red onion and cilantro and mix with the shrimp. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the shrimp and mix in a thick teaspoon of a mix of spices called Chinese five-spices powder. Just fry in a wok for a few minutes, and enjoy this super slim dish! Don’t forget to add a little salad made of lettuce, cilantro, cherry tomatoes, radishes and a good balsamic vinegar. Nomnomnom!
Vogue Black BoxWednesday May 8 2013
Just two weeks ago I finally decided not to buy the Dutch Vogue any more, but to get myself a subscription. Instead of 50% off, I choose the free Black Box as a welcoming gift, stuffed with products worth €300. I’m usually not that fond of surprises, but I figured this was probably one of the good kinds. And though I’m not going to ruin the surprise, I will tell you, it sure was a good choice! Think lots of luxury products and some additional Vogue gadgets. Boy, the indulgence!! Thinking of getting a subscription as well? Get the Black Box with it! Already looking forward to the next edition of Vogue, June ’13, being sent to my home…
