Lemon Meringue Pie: Success


I felt like eating lemon pie for weeks. Not the one from the shop or anything not homemade. But who would bake one for me? Well, me, it seems. I thought it was somehow complicated to make but after days of hesitation and a growing craving for the thing, I mustered up all my courage and just did it. And to my surprise, it was so simple!

Here's the recipe I followed. For the shell I used already made store bought pastry dough, which I just happened to have in the fridge (I use it for quiches and pâtés). The meringue was thick yet fluffy. The filling was sweet and tart, just perfect. Good, good, good!! The only problem with things that good is that they disappear very quickly. Especially when you are pregnant and were dreaming about them for weeks.

Unbelievably delicious (and healthy)

These chocolate superballs are the best sweet thing I had in years. Period.

...

Now. Would you believe me if I tell you that they are made exclusively of superfood? Without any sugar, gluten, dairies?

Well, see for yourself. Raw cacao (excellent source of magnesium), goji berries (rich in antioxydants), spirulina (unusually high in protein, essential fatty acids and vitamins), chia seeds (high in fibre, omega 3, antioxidants, calcium and more), hemps seeds (excellent source of protein, essential fatty acids, carbohydrates, fiber and trace minerals), coconut oil (healthiest oil on earth - high in nutritious and rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals), raw honey (should I say anything that wasn't said before - especially in the Qur'an?), vanilla (for taste :P)... I cannot believe how delicious (and heathy) they are. Could you find anything more satisfying than to eat extra chocolatey and sweet treats without feeling any guilt - and knowing it's super good for yourself?

I tried... Kiddlebug's cookies recipe!

I like to try. Try on clothes, shoes, scarves. Try new recipes, new material, new craft. Try to impress. Try not to be so perfectionnist or hard to please. Try new colors, new brush. Try to do something that I'm afraid of. Try to be better... SO! I decided I'll share with you, every week (Thursday, that is) an new experience I made, about something I tried. And because I tried something yesterday, here's my very first 'I tried' article!


I tried some gooood cookies! Sweet (very sweet!) and spicy (ginger and cinnamon). I'm not the baking/cooking type of person but I wanted to try something I don't usually do. Found the recipe on kiddlebug's blog and... voilà! Régalons-nous!
