Today is March, 25th. What a better day to talk about February? Right? The playlist has been there since day 1 probably, and the photos waiting to be uploaded since then too. I know this Recap comes incredibly late. I thought it would be better to just skip this month as if it had never passed, now it’s almost finishing. Get done with February and start March already. Wouldn’t be such a bad idea, I guess. …
April started well, with an avocado with more flesh than pit. Life is good 🙂 It was a month with duality. It seemed like very polarized. There were moments with a lot of energy and others with a lot of rest. But also the perfect mixture of both at some point. I had a lot of work but also a lot of things to enjoy. When I say it this way it seems like I don’t really…
I know that celebrating Thanksgiving is a bit of a controversial topic nowadays. I understand the underlying causes of the first celebration, but I also believe that giving thanks is a great excuse to celebrate. So, acknowledging that fact, I decided to incorporate pumpkin as an homage to Native Americans in my apple pie recipe this year. In Spain, Thanksgiving is something we don’t really celebrate. It’s become something known because of…
Good day to you all! This October was a very special one. It was my birthday AND Halloween. I know it happens every year, actually. But finally I could post more than one recipe for Halloween on the blog. Hurray! Like this mashed potatoes with kale: I am a person who’s very into rituals and that sort of stuff. When it comes to Halloween or in my case Samhain, I get all over the place. …
In Galicia we celebrate Samaín because we are Celts. That’s why I wanted to post a traditional Galician recipe we make for Halloween: Calacús (also known in Spanish as Chulas de calabaza) basically a pumpkin pancake 😁 The original recipe has a lot more sugar and is usually deep fried. But if I’m known for anything…that is reducing sugar and deep frying in my recipes. I’m not against eating anything, it’s just…
“Let me take you down, ’cause I’m going to Strawberry Fields” 🍓 What’s better than a fresh ripe strawberry in your mouth while the sun is shining? I’ll tell you what…wild strawberries! I’ve always been a fan of wild strawberries. I remember my grandpa used to give them to me when I was a kid because they grew in the backyard of his country house (where I live in). The years went by and my fixation…
Do you like ice-cream? Do you like cakes and sponges? Do you like chocolate? Well, then you’ll like this recipe. I don’t usually eat any processed food, but my body needs some “bad stuff” every now and then to feel a little bit more human 😅 The recipe I bring you today is for those who love dessert and can’t say no to processed foods like ice-cream or sponge cake. I am bringing you those two things combined, but I’m…
Don’t panic if you don’t have time for making dessert this year. Just do me a favour, soak a cup of raw cashews right now. C’mon, go! Come back after you do it, I’ll be waiting for you here. Done? Now keep reading this post and make the cake in 15 minutes. You only have to soak the cashews 6 hours before, so you are safe. You can read this post, you can read a couple more posts from this…
I know, cacao and matcha, right? I’ve already caught your attention. I’ve made a video of the recipe. To know the exact quantities, keep scrolling. It was first featured in my first “What I Eat In a Day as a Musician” that you can also find here: Of course, some of you asked me for the recipe and I thought I’d be a better person if I shared it 🙂 I’m feeling kinder already. You’re welcome. I’m planning on making…
I went to make some blood tests the other day. The good news is I don’t have anaemia anymore! The better news is…I went to The Good Cereal to have breakfast for the first time and it was: I really want to talk about breakfast and cereal. For those of you who have been following me for a while, or those who know me since I was a kid (Hi Mum, Grandma and Viví!) you know I love breakfast. My…
