Dinner at friends: What do you bring them?



Italian dinner at friends house



The nice thing about living in Italy is sometime when you have parties or invited and have no time you can always grab a home made cake in many of pastry shops in every town. This particular cake was the cake we bought for a dinner during our last stay in Italy to bring to friends for dinner. Usually when you are invited for dinner you bring something over, like most common is wine or dessert.
PASTICCERIA LA DORICA, we were unhappy to hear they were closing few days after we bought this cake. My husband was going to the same shop since he was like 12 years to buy cannolli a kind of pastry filled with cream. Will share a recipe for cannoli soon. If one day I learn to make this cake I will share it here with you. For now just admire the picture and inspire yourself maybe for a holiday in Forli and the sorrounding areas.

Karkadè or Carcadè

Remaining in the theme of herbal teas as today I feel I need a cup of herbal tea (but I have in my house only lemon grass tea) which I like very much.

Oh, please not that I want to promote where I come from but imagine I went to high school just outside this Karkadè project and I never had a chance to taste, I only tasted it in Italy.

It is imported to Italy where it is packaged.
See the post here http://rondine.altromercato.net/html/progetti/meruHerbs.htm,
unfortunately its in Italian.

Rustic furniture

A friend asked me to close my eyes and tell what comes in mind when she says Rustic furniture. My mind went in all directions searching for anything rustic. I imagined something very countryside.

But when they showed me this rustic furniture collection I was amazed its all so amazing.

Bring nature into your home for a warm feeling of comfort with some rustic furniture

Ugali and Stew (sukuma wiki)

ugali sukuma wiki
Sukuma wiki (kale)as they are called in Kenya means (to push the week), you can imagine this is the widely eaten vegetable in Kenya, in every corner there is Ugali and sukuma wiki

My way of making yummy sukuma wiki to go with the Ugali is easy. Oil+garlic then I add minced beef, cook for a while then add thinly chopped sukuma wiki and cook it slow adding salt, stock and some tomato (fresh or paste) mmmmm...yummy and this is served with Ugali.

Traditional Kenyan food ugali



Most times I cook and eat Italian food but I of course sometimes I want also to cook Kenyan way.
What I do in Bangkok is that I can find yellow flour (in Kenya we eat white Ugali- we only ate yellow Ugali in around 1982 when there was famine and we received the yellow flour as aid....that was a terrible period)

Anyway, now I make it in between Italian polenta and Kenyan ugali (not hard not soft)
in the next post lets see how I serve it.

Salad Buffet




Eating out in Bangkok is great as you can be able to enjoy variety of all sorts of cuisines local and international.
So when not in moods of cooking sometimes in my street there is the salad buffet restaurant called sizzler, I go there to enjoy the salad
