Banana Crumble


I can't say bananas are one of my favorite fruits, so when I found this recipe and at the same time looked at the almost dead bananas standing in the kitchen, I thought that was it. With very few ingredients needed and enough healthy too, this is one of the easiest crumbles you can make. Give it a try with a scoop of vanilla bean ice-cream and it's the perfect way to end a meal.  



Ingredients:
4 ripe bananas
1/2 cup of tea lemon juice
2 tsp brown sugar
6 biscuits
2 tsp unsalted almonds, shelled
2 tsp quaker
2 tsp butter, melted
extra butter and sugar for the crumble plate

Preheat oven to 180C. Butter a large pan or 6 small ones and sprinkle some sugar in. Cut bananas into slices and arrange them in the pan. Add lemon juice all over and sprinkle with brown sugar. Crumble biscuits and almonds and put them in a bowl. Add quaker and melted butter and mix them with a spoon. Add the mixture over bananas and bake for 30 minutes. Serve it, if you want, with vanilla iec-cream, yoghurt or whipped cream.

Zip it.


When I first saw New York based Lisa Marie Fernandez swimsuits line two years ago, I instantly fell in love. So original and stylish and sexy. And my favorite thing about them: the scuba-style zips! Loved them!
I thought I should get one for myself till I checked out the prices and started dreaming about them.
It wasn't few days ago that I found this awesome "Lisa Marie kind of thing" (it is really very similar), for only 9,95Euros! How good is that? Plus: the colors are great and it fits perfectly- Summertime is here..

Eclair au Chocolat


I always loved eclairs and I always wanted to try to make them on my own. Especially the classic, chocolate ones. I haven't actually realized how painful process that was, but it was all worth it. Considering it my first try, I think I did well- don't you think? xx
