Fruit Salad

  Hi Everyone,                                                                                                                      i had this week where i had no appetite, nothing tasted right. I was yearning for fresh, i needed a burst of flavours in my mouth. Fruits are like chocolate; sometimes you have to close your eyes before you taste it to get the real flavour in every corner of your mouth and every sense of your being. The act alone can turn anything into an aphrodisiac. (God Bless Lisa, my university female psychology professor; made me see  a slice of lindt d'or in a whole different way. Anyway, so i craved fruits and i went on a fruit hull (my sister and i always talk to each other on face time and somewhere along the line we imitate YouTube girls "So i just did a spring hall" bla bla bla.. lol)

In this salad or cup of aphrodisiac and passion i have:

 

Pineapples

Grapes

Blue berries

Cantaloupe

strawberries

Watermelon

1 cup of orange juice and the juice of half a lemon (unifies the fruits and prolongs the freshness)

I bought all the fruits and peeled and chopped them myself, there's a little instrument that is really good for these but i didn't use it. I'll blog about it next time

"If you are really in the mood add a shot of Brandy (my mom always does) It takes this baby to a whole other level."

 

 

I'm looking for all ways to stay in touch with the love i try to spread on this website, hence my blogging on my lunch break.

 

Till we meet again! "DMC LOVE"

Alfredo Night! Served with Bok Choy and Garlic Bread

I had a friend over for dinner and this is what i served as the main. It's Pasta  made with Alfredo sauce, Shittake mushrooms, and spring onions. I grilled the chicken in the oven and rubbed it in a Tomato Alfredo sauce that i'd made with some cheese. I served it with steamed bok choy (a veggie on the side always keep the body right! :) ) and slices of home made garlic baguettes.

Apple Pie - Loaf

Hi Guys! I made an apple pie Loaf. I have this new caption for DMC photos, it says "Crave it; make it" That's how this came about. Consider it a way of saving money or a way to be creative, it's also a way of knowing exactly what's getting into your mouth. When you make something you know exactly what you put into it.

For the crust i used:

1 1/4 cups of plain flour

1/2 cup of butter

2 pinches of salt

1 pinch of nutmeg (this is not standard, i wasn't putting any cinnamon into this pie so i substituted the flavor for something i liked)

1 egg yoke (to brush over)

For my filling:

3 Green Apples Peeled and sliced

1 cup sugar (brown is better)

2 spoons of cornstarch or flour

1 Lemon (Its Juice)
