Time goes too fast

I can not believe it’s already July 14. I had no time to write here. I had doctors appointments. Last sunday we had an international potluck. We met with our neighbors in our home. We ate brazilian, indian and polish food. I love garbanzo bean dish made by my neighbor and friend. I love guava paste too (J.thanks again).
Today I had a busy day too. I woke up a 5.30 a.m. and went for a bike ride. When I came back I took a nap.
I went shopping in the afternoon. I bought some gifts for my nephews and a doll for my daughter. She has a favorite doll “Baby born”, but the doll is broken. Today I found in Ross “My little baby born” ( is smaller).
I plan to give gift for my daughter during our the trip to Poland. I can not wait to see her happiness.

Yummy In My Tummy

I love healthy foods: veggies, whole grains, legumes, fruits. I usually avoid sugar and dairy products, but I still crave sometimes flavors of childhood.

Today we had a tasty meals. Sometimes when the fridge is almost empty, you can you can go to the pantry in search of treasure.

For breakfast we (my kids and me) had millet with soy sauce (my husband usually eats cereal). For lunch french toasts (children), for dinner dill potatoes, peas and garbanzo beans and for desert: soft rols with pastry cream. I found recipe on the internet:
