Weekend 28/3

The weekend started with the celebration of Adam's 3rd birthday on Friday. He got the chocolate cake he had ordered. Brownie-type layers, with a fudge filling and a chocolate cream cover. It was yummy, but it gave me an urge for nut cakes for some reason.


Aida didn't want to be in the picture.

Me with my two boys.

Adam with his favourite present. Though admittingly he just got soft presents and the RC car. To he was quite excited about the clothes and than he came to the last present and opened it and raised his arms in the air. So it was easy to see, which was his favourite.

Been busy baking this weekend or week rather as I started with Adam's cake. Anyway I need more bread for my sandwiches for work. But we new we gonna have visitors to admire the new arrival. And as it was waffle day on Wednesday I thought that was I good choices. And for sure Aida didn't complain. Though this time around we served it with whipping cream and jam. Last weekend we had them with ice cream. After preparing the waffle batter we started preparing two doughs. One for bread and one for buns and semlas. That took some kneeding and I got I tired arm. Than we started making waffles, which turned out really nice. Followed by the semla-buns and the cinnamon buns, which also turned out fine. At least as long as you omit the fact that they looked lik pau. My gas oven is just heating from below, so everything is very pale. The buns for sandwiches turned out fine in the end too. When I put them into the oven I remembered that I forgotten to put yeast into the dough. So I had to knead all the bun's into one dough again and dissolve the yeast in some water and than start all over again. Still fine in the end though.

Aida didn't like the semlas though so she had waffles on Stunday as well. Adam wanted just the Semla bun so thats what he got. This is how Aida looks after eating waffles with cream.

The baking actually continued on Sunday. I made to lovely pizzas. Yum yum.
