Yes we are waiting and waiting for spring to arrive :) Like every year. <br /><br />I wonder, do you work as a chef ? Since you prepare food several times a day. Today I made wild salmon with vegetables and tagliatelle. One of my favorite fish. <br />Yes I am doing fine, thanks for asking ! Just preparing for a birthday party on Saturday. My sister turns 37 the 19th and I am turning 39 the 22th of March. So we are celebrating together :) I am having a sea themed table, maybe you have a few dishes to share ?? Warm and cold...<br /><br /><br />Hope you had a nice day Ivan.<br /><br />~ Aina ~<br />MODERN COUNTRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10002515402843289460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064283732773106138.post-89133785011630440952013-03-14T16:04:18.342+01:002013-03-14T16:04:18.342+01:00Hello Aina,

Here you don't have to worry though, very hardy dough that doesn't rise more, swell in the heat of the steam. Your Christmas crunches sound good! I do make a lot of new things, I cook twice a day and I do vary things each time, even if its just different spices or herbs!!<br />The snow came and we had deep blanket of snow so we couldn't even see the flower!!! They seem OK, as it is melting this afternoon!! We had -7 as our lowest, which is rare here! The sun is wonderful especially reflecting off the white snow today, the house is incredibly bright.<br />We are planning the garden still and just excited to get gardening, even if we have to wait a bit longer!!<br />Hope you are doing fine? <br />Best wishes, <br />Ivan xA Normandy kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11793122018733990319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064283732773106138.post-23433484847090472592013-03-14T15:51:11.401+01:002013-03-14T15:51:11.401+01:00Hello Sara,

I am so cross I had not try to made them before!!<br /><br />Now, for this it needs just a bit of rise, so bicarbonate of soda (do you make soda bread?) would work here. 'Baking powder' in France, is 'Levure Chimique' (in pink packets with the flour!) but I still buy it in the UK as it is a little different - but for this recipe, the French one it is good.<br /><br />I was thinking, to make it easier for the first time: <br />Roll out, filling in middle, wet edges, bring all up (like money bag), pinch top with no air in it, and with kitchen scissors snip excess off the top above the pinch...<br />If you have more questions just ask, hope this helps!<br />Ivan<br />:DA Normandy kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11793122018733990319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064283732773106138.post-27990915227209814762013-03-14T15:34:27.926+01:002013-03-14T15:34:27.926+01:00Hello Tweedles,

I&...That is so sweet of you, I think he enjoyed !!<br /><br />I'm very bad at making dough, or may I say, most times it ends up not raise properly. I Do not know if it is me or the yeast, but it has made me a little scared. But it looks so so delicate and delicious. Would love to learn how to make my own fresh pasta too. But Filo pastry I can make. Your Apple crunches looks similar to those I made for Christmas. I just made a mix of coconut and nuts along with apples, cinnamon and sugar, they quickly disappeared. Very popular! I wonder if you try something new every day? It looks like you enjoy to vary much.<br /><br />Hope you are doing well Ivan, and thanks for your kind comment.<br />How is it now with your daffodils, primroses, and the cute little butterfly you saw the other day? Aren`t everything covered under a blanket of snow? Here the temperatures dropped to below -16 last night, so winter does not release as quickly as we may hope. But we have beautiful days with lots of sun. It does well to keep up the mood :) <br /><br />Big hug ~ AinaMODERN COUNTRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10002515402843289460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064283732773106138.post-23150547891526495922013-03-13T08:32:48.265+01:002013-03-13T08:32:48.265+01:00Momos make my heart sing!
