Violet Velvet Cake.

Hello everybody and Happy Mother’s Day.

Though it’s supposed to be a happy joyful day but I always feel sad for people who lost their moms, or childless moms or orphans and keep hoping that these people might find someone to compensate the loss ,plus I don’t like the idea that this day became a big propaganda for gifts and home supplies. If you really love your mom you must love and cherish her all year long not only in one day.
Well anyway, we’ll all gather this evening, I made this lovely cake that I saw on Instagram and been waiting for a special occasion to make it, recipe is the same as red velvet but with violet food coloring and because I didn’t find the right color is did it by mixing red and blue together, all morning doing trials till we got the exact color.
One more thing, filling inside is cream cheese icing and blueberries.

Hello everybody.
Though shopped groceries and went to vegetables’ shop but still had no clue what to cook till just before lunch.

Winner was chicken quesadillas and when I had two more extra pitta breads I made them Greek style,very tasty.

On the side I made a fava bean smashed dish,with tomatoes onions peppers and cumin also yummy.

Hope you all enjoyed the weekend

Custard on Cake Crumble.

Hello everybody.

Woke up to a rainy cold day, I really don’t like this weather specially if I have to go out, anyway a breakfast gathering was already fixed from last week at a coffee shop ” Commodo “, to be honest food was good but service was awful, hate it when food comes before tea and hot plates before cold, anyway I don’t think I’ll be going again 🙂
Lunch today was cauliflower with rice and salad suitable dish in this weather.Dessert was recycled chocolate cake leftovers crumbled with its sauce then I made simple custard and topped crumbles with it, nice dessert with coffee after the afternoon nap.
