Monday

birthday!

More birthday! Thank you for all the birthday greetings! I had a wonderful day (followed by a busy week and a few days with a weird mix of sore throat and migraine + visit from my parents :))

My birthday was pretty much about food: delicious brunch in bed, sandwiches and coffee for lunch and for dinner: Caprese and red wine and olives while cooking, seared ahi tuna with lime, fresh basil and mint, mushroom risotto with fancy bacon and delicious strawberry cake w. raspberry mousse and the best cup of coffee I have ever had;

 My birthday present to myself was a bag of Kieni Espresso from Coffee Collective and I have never tasted anything like it before!

 -oh, and the layer cake from last post was raspberry mousse (creme, raspberries and egg yolks) and chocolate/coffee mousse (chocolate, coffee, egg yolks and creme)

Bon Appétit
