Huevos Del Abuelo
My Mr talked to me about this dish a couple of times in the past, passed on in his family from generation to generation – ‘just how grandfather made it’ – but we never came around to making it ourselves (I have never tried it before, either).

First ever meal plan!
Some of you might know by now that I’m normally preparing lunch and dinner (for 2). This might sound a bit terrifying, taking into consideration that I’m also working full-time from an office, working out regularly, cleaning, doing everyday mess control at home and visiting family every couple of days (does that really fit in … Continue reading

Cake’s Second Life: Leftover Cake, Yoghurt and Orange Parfait Cups
For some strange reasons we had leftovers from the other day’s Roscón de Reyes cake – maybe because it was simply too big and everybody around us was trying to stick to the new year’s resolutions? – anyway, I do not like throwing away food so I had to re-think the cake and it ended … Continue reading
Roscón de Navidad – Traditional Spanish Christmas Cake
This cake is traditionally made around Spain and Latin America for the ‘Día de Reyes’ or Kings’ Day, celebrated on the 6th of January.
