And thats only the beginning of April!
Happy Easter to all!!
We're back from our fabulous holiday.
We're relaxed and ready to take on the rest of the school year. Mind you, we've only been back a few days and I already feel the mile high pile of ironing breathing down my neck. The house needs cleaning and organising so I'm already feeling a tad over whelmed.
The girls are still on holiday for another week, so this week it's dentist and eye checkups - they are going to love me for that! Atleast they always come away with a gift when they get back from the dentist. No toothbrush or tacky tooth sticker here. They get disney princess bags and pencil cases, making any trip to the dentist well worthwhile for them!
The past week-end we made madeleines - which disappeared as soon as they came out of the oven. Little and not so little hands grabbed them from the madeleine tins. Dusted with icing sugar, they make a delicious anytime treat. And even though the food in Thailand was good, its always comforting to come home and have home cooked meals.
Now you see them....
Now you don't!!!
Madeleines are dainty little scalloped cakes that are found in France. I made little lemon ones that disappeared with two mouthfuls.
I have 2 metal trays of 12 back in France - I just love madeleine tins.
These cute little round ones were bought here in Hong Kong at a Japanese store.
My parents joined us on Easter Sunday for lunch and the ever so anticipated easter egg hunt.
We made our own little cornflake and rice choco covered birds nests, with jelly bean eggs.
And we even spotted the easter bunny!!
What more could one want!
