Kate From Kate's Playground Does Harcore

SPELT APPLE TART WITH TOUCH OF LEMON SCENTED COCOA NATURAL BODY CARE




This cake was created by an experiment ... failed!
Unfortunately I could not photograph it, but you have to imagine a classic apple tart, like that of the photo (taken from the web). What's special about this cake is taste ... a wonderful combination of apples, cocoa and lemon. Indescribable, try it! I also added the macaroons, to bring something even more special. For the rest of the pie is completely vegan, no butter, milk or eggs. Who wants to make it completely vegan can even omit the amaretto (or amaretti groped to invent vegan!).
Ingredients: Flour
00, 150 gr
Wholemeal Spelt, 150 gr
extra virgin olive oil, 4 tablespoons sugar
integral barrel, 200 gr
A lemon
organic apples, 4
Cocoa powder, 4 tablespoons
Amaretti ( optional)
Agar agar, a teaspoon

For the pastry: Mix flour and sugar (except third) with grated lemon rind and oil. Mix with your fingertips by the "crumbs" with the dough, then add some 'iced water, enough to shrink the whole, and make a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate. Meanwhile peel and slice the apples, except one.
Roll out the dough into the tart mold, prick with a fork and place in preheated oven for about 5 minutes, until it becomes a bit 'stronger. Mix the cocoa and sugar left over from the preparation of the dough (if you want, add the crumbled amaretti) and sprinkle the dough, arrange over the apple slices.
Bake at 180 degrees for about 30 minutes, then let cool. Meanwhile, spin the apple and the lemon, strain the juice, add a teaspoon of sugar and an agar agar, put on the fire and boil for 2-3 minutes brush the crust with this jelly while hot, is cooling congeals and glossy surface the cake, giving it a pleasant aroma of lemon.
It 'really good!

In our society we are bombarded constantly by advertising, especially us women ... it seems that without using a huge amount of cosmetics you can not survive. Lately I have greatly reduced the amount of cosmetics and products that I used (though in reality I was never a fashion victim ...) and I realized that 80% of the products I used are absolutely useless.

Here's my list of natural solutions for body care:


Face : use the creams of Hauschka, a German brand of high quality, using organic and biodynamic ingredients, not tested on animals, with a great Inci (see biodizionario ). They cost a bit ', but still much less than the big brands (example: a face cream costs about 20-25 €, € 9 on a shower gel). At least it pays really the quality, not advertising or brand.


Bath / shower : as above, Hauschka (excellent shower cream with lemon) or the milk of Weleda Rosemary , another good brand. In particular, this milk rosemary has a wonderful aroma and is excellent as an energizing morning ... would be to mix with the bath, but I do not have to use the tank directly under the shower in the morning and gives me a great boost of energy (being natural and not chemical, it could also be used directly on the skin, such as perfume) .

then I must say that I have found that the foaming shower gel strongly that we usually do not really need much ... underestimate the power of simple water washing, coupled perhaps with a past the glove of horsehair, which takes away the dead skin cells.


Hair Removal: I have always used the cream depilatory, but lately (after trying to self-produce the wax of sugar and lemon - with results frustrantissimi) I am convinced that the use of simple razor and dry cleaning, as well as being very practical, is more environmentally friendly (it is true that the disposable razor, but is used several times before throwing it, and it is recyclable, being made of plastic and metal (it's all in the bin of plastic), while the cream is pure chemistry, and in addition to being very bad for your skin polluter more ...


Moisturizing Body: I \u200b\u200bleft the cream, since I tried the sweet almond oil: Moisturizing is the best of all, does not contain chemical costs less than creams and lasts longer. In addition, eco-labels can be easily found, not tested on animals, this type . Always make sure that it is cold pressed and completely plant.


Cellulite : here again, I used the gel for a long time before discovering that the only thing that really works are the mud packs, also homemade.


Cotton swabs : Instead of using disposable ones, try to take the long wooden sticks (the ones on the skewers, for instance) and break them in half, then on the end to wrap a piece of Cotton: after it is used, you can only throw the cotton, reusing the stick.


For the rest I'm still experimenting ...

And you? What are your solutions for eco-natural body care?

What Happended To Sandra Model

ARE BACK!



I'm here!




E 'not a lot of time and place have been so many reasons .... new house, new job, exams to prepare, no time to cook, etc ...


But because in the end I have a new kitchen, and I'm also using the recently, I came back to experiment and share recipes!


In fact they are four months that I started a new full-time job, so I eat lunch outside in the evening I get home so tired I just want to go to bed and almost always comes down to a dinner ' salad ... I have time and want to cook only on weekends, when I find among other things, to clean the house and put in place, piles of things to clean and press, books to study, spending to do ... you say, but her husband does not help me?? And 'that, poor thing, with the work he does (musician) has schedules unpacked so that you can not count on him!


For two weeks I have discovered bioexpress , a service that is helping me greatly. I found browsing on the blog, many people have talked about it well ... is a cooperative of organic farmers in South Tyrol a weekly home delivery box of organic vegetables. I receive two weeks and I feel good, from practical point of view is fantastic, I must not go find the nearest market resulting in grueling Saturday morning, I do not have to carry weights .... after all, is economically convenient (in Milan see high prices for non-organic vegetables, not to mention the bio ... it seems to go to the jeweler), the box is very varied, with a pleasant surprise and the result of " force "to experiment with new recipes every week .... it is true that the truck coming from Bolzano and maybe there would be more businesses close, but so far I have found far too laborious and not join a GAS than buy at the supermarket, with all its consequences (in support of an economy in long-chain, be disadvantageous to producers and the consumer, passive acceptance of the logics of the market, plastic containers etc. ...) I think the Bioexpress already a huge step forward. Furthermore, with regard to pollution transport, Bioexpress is zero-emission because the energy certificates to offset ... as I am not 100% convinced by this form of compensation, if only attests to the good faith of the company and the attention to the environmental problem, and it is not little.


So, will soon be tested recipes with organic vegetables from South Tyrol ...


For now I leave you with some shots of the wedding!

Anniversary Msg For Bf



But since they live not just a hobby, yesterday I wanted challenge themselves in preparing a recipe that I found on a carnival and a book that had impressed me very much.
fried flowers, maybe roses ...
The mixture is that of frappe / chat, you'll have read a dozen these days, but instead strips that you must make three different sizes of disks, which can then be shredded as to form a corolla, and " glued together with the egg white.
If I have intrigued here's the recipe:
Ingredients: 200 gr. flour, 2 eggs, 1 egg white, salt, one (or more) jam to taste.
Procedure: Form a mound of flour and join a pinch of salt, add eggs and a tablespoon of water to form a dough and let rest for 30 minutes in a warm place.
Then spread it with a rolling pin (or Grandma Duck) to a thickness of about 1 mm. With three different sizes of round cutter cut circles of dough and other accounts for about 2 cm with a sharp knife.

Brush with egg white center discs and "paste" on each other, obviously starting from the largest.
roses Fry in deep oil 2 / 3 minutes on one side and an equal second after turning it over. After being drained dry and sprinkle with powdered sugar and put in the center of each "flower" a teaspoon of jam or marmalade.

Personally, I recommend adding a tablespoon of sugar and a liquor (rum or Witch) mixture, angora to make it more tasty. Aggiungi immagine

BABY BOOM-WORDS IN FREEDOM'

Today broadcast on television again "BABY BOOM" a film that I loved from the first time I saw him .... and I looked for the umpteenth time sipping literally everything, but especially the ending. I who have been forced, when I had young daughters, to catapult across the city, in the middle of traffic that often imprisoned me, and I felt suffocated by fatigue as if two hands hold me by the throat, all for navigate between office, home, grandparents and baby sitters, leading a life that seems out. Not helped before and then abandoned when the girls were 3 and 9, I closed my eyes and I have always dreamed of, to an incurable sentimentalist that I am, before the final quality. Dreaming of being able to have another dimension of life with more peace of mind, dedicating myself to the daughters ... dreaming that I can leave on a rocking chair in front of a window sill full of flowers, and hearts full of Amorites. Sorry for these "words in freedom", but I recently discovered the courage and the desire to outsource everything that I've kept inside for too long.
