Baklava


Baklava is one of my favorite desserts. There is also something special to me about making baklava. I used the recipe from " The book of Greek cooking" by Lesley Mackley. Here is the recipe as I am not sure you can find it online. If you like baklava this is a pretty good recipe to use.

Thai yellow curry with butternut squash


This is a type of the meal that I make when I have many vegetables around the kitchen and don't know exactly what to do with them... The good thing is that this dish keeps well for two days, so if you make more you can have it as a side dish and/or for a  lunch/dinner the following day.
