So we went for cycling, had a dinner party at home went to Brugges etc and have planned to go and watch few movies and to go next week to Brussels.
She still have a week of holiday so I am going to take a week of blog break.
Chocolate eggs we bought for Shyama.
There was a time when we used to buy all these chocolate eggs and then hide in different places in the living and when Shyama got up in the Easterday morning she would start looking for them and each time she found one she will be shouting so excitedly.
Now we just keep them on the breakfast table as she is 17, so I am sure she don't believe in them :-)
And this months Mac theme was you had to make a Mac with April holidays as there is lots of different holiday this month.
And I did yellow colour as during the Easter time the shops are full with things in yellow.
Before my Macs whent into the oven, they were yellow but by the time then came out after 20 minutes they were this colour.
I had planned to fill them with a chocolate gnache but i got cunning and filled them with peanut butter so that hubby would not complain :-) well he loved it as the filling was peanut butter.
Yeah we women are really cunning aren't we :-))))))
Used the same Ottolenghi recipe, which til now has never failed me. I have heard so much good review about this book from Meeta and Deeba that I ended up oredering them and will get them in few days.
