Éclairs

My latest recipe i tryied and i LOOOOVED is this one: éclaires with vanilla pudding cream and shocolate topping.

Therefore you need a dough like for cream puffs - a choux. http://maikefr.blogspot.de/2013/07/cream-puff.html

than you make a vanilla pudding cream if you like make it as finished product that you just have to mix with milk/cream or you make cream sweet with vanilla sugar. The same procedure with the topping. Than put it in the fridge for a few hours so that the dough gets soft and enjoy.

the secret garden

Today i had free and it was a hot summer day - perfect to relaxe in our garden with some magazines, food and drinks. The day started good for me because my sweety invited me to go eating out for breakfast in a nice restaurant - that was i nice little suprise and i´m happy to have a boyfriend like him - always a gentelman and alert. Love you sweety <3.

 By more than 30° degrees it is the best place to be because there is some wind and shadow. 

I haven´t told you yet but i work at the post since two weeks for 2-3 month to finance my world trip i planed with my better half - my boyfriend. And its sometimes hard because the temperatures are little bit too high and for example yesterday i worked 10 hours and 45 minutes with only 15 minutes break.

Thats why i needed to reward myself today - i buyed two new lovely cookbooks! You need to now i loooooooooooooooove cookbooks so much because of the nice photos i like to watch and because i like food and cooking! :) suitable to the weather i buyed two icecream books with recipes without need of a ice cream machine so perfect if you like ice cream but don´t want to buy a machine only to try doing it by yourself!

It was a very relaxing day and i´m happy with my new books and i hope you had a nice day too and maybe enjoy your summer holidays or something...

 for a fresh kick i did lime into the water.

and because i´m always hungry i make a picinic with fresh fruits and potato.

on the left side are my magazines: Grazia and the fashion magazine boden - on the right side are my new cookbooks i told you.

these are my new shoes from Asos! i totally love them - the colour and the spikes and they are a good alternative to flip flops!

and last but not least happy me (:

Summerday

what i do during a summer day?

laying on the balcony, drinking fresh drinks like cool water with orange/lemon/lime, reading magazines like instyle and of course - eating (water)melon ! also a little fresh lunch variant is bread with truffle salami and tomato with salt!

have a nice sunny summer day(: generally the summer holidays started today but i already finished school and i´m now working during the whole holidays - already had my vacation (as you can see in elder blogs) ...

cream puff

I tried a new recipeand i want to share it with you because it doesn´t only look delicious - it is!! perfect to impress visitors by a coffee or so: cream puffs with chocolate sprinkles and strawberries as a summer edition.

the recipe works with choux and cream with vanilla sugar. for the choux you need (for 16 peaces):

Preheat the oven to 220 ° (200 ° convection)

1) 60g Butter

2) 250g Milk or Water ( i took milk )

3) 1/2 tl salt 

cook the first 3 ingredients until the butter melts and than take it from the stove.

4) 150g flour

put in flour and than stir on the stove until the dough separates from the pot base and on the pot base is a white layer. 

5) 4 eggs

wait 10-15 min so that the egg does not curdle and than start with one egg and mix it with the dough fully and than take the next. take as much eggs as the dough needs to shine (maybe 3 are enough).

fill the dough into a bag spray or forme it with the spoon and take enough distance between each on your kitchen plate. Than bake it 20-25 min until its golden-brown and than immediately cut the puffs with a sharp knife. 

6) 400g cream

7) 400g strawberries

8) chocolate sprinkles

Leave to cool and then fill with approximately 400g cream and strawberries and top it with the chocolate sprinkles! finish and enjoy :)

summer thunderstorm

after a long period of hot temperatures a summer thunderstorm was a nice way to cool the hot air down and water the nature. 

i love summer rain and the fresh air after that - finally temperatures were you´re not sweeting even when you want to sleep. now i´m gonna enjoy this fresh air with open windows while watching shopping queen (:

have a good midday.
