My Birthday

When I was younger I could never understand why older people didn't get excited about their own birthdays, but now I know. Its strange how that transition happened to me and I can not say when I stopped being happy about getting older. As kids we always made sure to increase our age by any possible month we could, but now I would like not to mention numbers.

Living in Australia for 7 years helped me discover many different cultures, and their cuisine. I love good food and I love to cook. I dont think there is any such a thing as "I dont know"... you just take a recipe and start cooking. I always like to be creative when it comes to cooking, so here you will find lots of my cooking and I am hoping you will enjoy it.

For my birthday (7th of March) I made Tiramisu. It was the first time ever for me so I just followed the recipe I found from a woman in New Zealand named Megan, on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TEJXgjId8w

So here are photos of the one I made... it was not very hard making it, but trying to find all the ingredients here in Denmark proved almost imposible, and so expensive! Almost 40€! And here I was, wondering why I never made it before!

My lovely husband made a special Greek stew (made with veal) called Stifado: one of my favorite dishes. So I had to post these photos as well, of his cooking process. I hope you like it!
