Ideas for Christmas or New Year’s dinner party? Yes, please! I will be going to a pre- Christmas party this Saturday and this will be one of the dishes I will bring along. I am also making some delicious cheese pretzels and probably some gingerbread… Romanian parties are savage when it comes to the amount…
Ugly cookies are delicious… and they’re actually pretty. It is the first time I am making this type of cookies, even though I’ve been planning to make them for years now. I try not to bake unless I have a reason, which this time was Saint Nicholas day, and share the sweets immediately after I…
I am really having fun with these recipe templates, in case it was not obvious already.

Valentine’s Day is around the corner, now you have the recipe to try on your loved ones for breakfast. 🙂 INGREDIENTS FOR…
I made chili con carne before but this time I had plenty of time and I did it the “right” way. And by that I mean slow cooking and allowing the sauce to rest before serving the dish. INGREDIENTS FOR 4 PORTIONS: 1 tbsp oil 1 yellow onion 1 red pepper…
