I used to be like this...


I had tried to make cakes and muffins and cupcakes with no success.
But suddenly, last year, something happen. I cannot explain what. Maybe in my head, who knows.
For my birthday my friends from Alicante showered me with cupcakes stuff so I had a moral duty. 



Then in June, a friend gave a little Cupcake & Cookies course and I got the basics.

 



Even after that, I had some failures trying it at home.


Yeah. I don't understand it either.

But since then, I've been trying and trying. Always following recipes because improvisation is not my thing. I still have to improve the frosting, but I usually avoid it for my health's sake.
These are the results. Enjoy.

Vanilla cupcakes with buttercream.

Vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting.

Carrot cake (I made cheese cream frosting but it was liquid)

Carrot Cake again.

Cranberry cupcakes

Lemon cupcakes with lemon icing. 

Rainbow cupcakes (vanilla) with chocolate frosting.

Cine Familiar

Here you have a list of movies that I have seen thanks to (or because of) my father, be it for insistence, suggestion or mere chance. Jesus Christ Superstar He went to the cinema 13 times. I didn't have that pleasure, but my brother and I have watched it several hundreds of times, and it has turned out to be a part of my life more important than I would have expected. The Fiddler on the Roof Another one of his favourites, watched ad nauseam (but without nausea). I was lucky to have a father (and a mother) open to every genre and with a special predilection for musicals. He recited the intro of 'Tradition' by heart, in Spanish and in English, with an enviable Yiddish . Oliver! I forgot this one the first time. Thanks to my brother for pointing it out . Music and Dickens! Blade Runner "Hay un antes y un después de Blade Runner ". Curiously enough, I've only watched it twice or so. Queen of Africa Adorable (which is beautiful + funny). Dead Poets Club Thus began

Los Pájaros

Por fin hemos descubierto por qué tenemos la terraza invadida de palomas. Es que era salir y ver la barandilla llena de palomas ahí mirándote, y las espantabas y ni se inmutaban, jo qué miedo. Aunque si las vecinas les echan de comer no me extraña. Pero es que hoy limpiando aparece una cáscara de huevo, apartamos las cosas y ahí está toda pincha en una maceta, y así apartando vemos a los dos pollicos debajo. Y qué hago? Los dejo? Porque no los voy a matar, pero tampoco quiero que mi terraza se convierta en el anidadero oficial, jo. Voy a tener que hacer como la Hierbas, tirar a la paloma por el patio.
