Creamy asparagus tagliatelle with poached eggs

Wow, it’s May already. Before you know it it’ll be August and then September and Halloween aaand Christmas… and 2017.

But, let’s take things slow. I hope all of you had a great weekend and that you got some time off, after all Sunday was International labor day (or workers’ day). Although this is a 2-day holiday here, including May 2, which is supposed to be a work free day too, but I know some stores were opened anyway. …

Year-round homemade tomato sauce

Can’t believe it’s February already, but I’m happy at the same time. Last week was so weird.

year-round homemade tomato sauce - canned tomatoes

I saw this article on Buzzfeed about de-stressing in the kitchen and I totally relate to it. My favorite way to de-stress in the kitchen is making dough and washing the dishes. I prefer to do the latter first, then make some dough and on a super asshole-y day I make pizza out of that. Nothing beats cheesy pizza and a beer. Well, maybe lasagna does.

Add some TV to that and I am #blessed.

Oatmeal fudgy skillet cookie + blueberry sauce

You know, I’ll just jump right into it. I’ve been wondering what to name this recipe. I think fudgy skillet cookie works great, but this is more than just a cookie.

It’s loaded with chocolate and chocolate chips, so it could be a brownie. It’s got oats which remind me of an oatmeal cookie. It’s served with a thick blueberry sauce and vanilla ice cream, which is a bit over the top and gives me cake or trifle vibes.

You could also simply call this your Friday night date. I’m not kidding, because that doesn’t sound bad at all. And you know I’d never judge you.

Brownie, cookie, potato, potahto, … I opted for fudgy skillet cookie. I like the sound of that, as it satisfies all my sweet cravings at once. I can just feel the gooey chewy chocolate bits, without even having a bite.
