Our birthday party continued with Bowie (with a lovely Geisha outfit) and Oskar (with a beautiful tie) dropping in just in time for the pizza, yay !
The next day, it was raining and because of that, we had to wait for our afternoon walk - we don't think that's a valid reason because we don't mind the rain. After a while, I decided to complain about this : if you don't like getting wet, just get the umbrella, don't make us wait !
Dad thought it was funny, so he filmed me which delayed the walk even more !
PS what Dad finds really funny which you only see a glimpse here is how I make my point by pushing anything that's at my height with my nose...
I won a prize at Jazzi's bunny look alike contest, I am so honoured and excited, thank you Jazzi for organising this contest !
Here is the recipe for the delicious almond cake we had for our birthday :
Ingredients :
- 2 puff pastry doughs
- 100 g ground almonds
- 100 g sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 50 g soft butter
- 1 egg to glaze
Preparation:
Place dough in a pie plate, prick with a fork.
Whisk egg yolks and sugar in large bowl until the mixture is foamy, then add the almond powder and softened butter and mix until you get a fairly smooth cream.
Spread the cream over the dough, place the second dough over it and close at the edges..
Brown the top of the dough with beaten egg and pierce small holes to allow air to escape.
Bake at 210 ° C (for approximately 30 minutes.

I think of the garden after the rain;
And hope to my heart comes singing,
At morning the cherry blooms will be white,
And the Easter bells be ringing!
