participate with this cake contest Here we cook with the heart designed by Sandrina's Blog The Teaspoon Milù. I really liked it, and not surprised, the kitchen-heart connection, because Sandrina is a sweet girl who reminds us with this contest, as the sentiment is important in life.
The inspiration for this cake is my mom, we did this when she was sweet nostalgia of its places of origin. I speak a little of her ... strong woman, sometimes a little hard but with a generosity and kindness only. Second child of a large family, was sent to 12 repeat 12, to serve in a Ligurian family .... Then she met my father, the love of his life. Despite the humble peasant origins, had a fineness of manner and bearing that distinguished them. Cooked superbly all'emiliana is that the Ligurian. What good memories, those Sunday dinners together, the smells of good food that floated around the house, the table spread with the cloth nice, laughter, and the smell when I embrace!,
Thanks Sandrina, for making me remember so many moments that sometimes remain dormant in the heart ....
