    We are all stuck at home for the same reason, my first 2 weeks and a half were just fine, actually I enjoyed being home with the kids doing all the delayed stuff I have been delaying for ages, but when it started to be a FORCED condition of staying at home, the anxiety started to get over me, its spring outside yet we need to stuck inside!!! UNFAIR but it is a MUST !   My daughter ( which I call a strawberry little mouse ) kept asking for a strawberry cake, so today I decided to get my self together and bake the cake for her and most…

    Orange Jam

    i grew up in a house full of home made jams, my mother used to make  jams of each season fruit, and to be honest i never liked Orange jam, i used to find it too bitter, lately i started to really enjoy it, only when i realized that bitterness can be controlled to adjust anyone's taste by the amount of orange peels you add to the jam. my recipe requires mixing 2 types of oranges which will lead to a very balanced taste, its not too sweet nor bitter plus it has a citrusy flavor. i took a picture the 2 types of oranges i used just to make…

    2018 favorites

    When 2018 started I was closing my company Mezian because of few reasons and I had no idea what am I going to do next, I have decided its about time to start blogging, I was not sure how will this work but I believed I will find the way after I start, so I just started ( thanks GooGle for answering all my Qs ) and I must say it is NOT as easy and simple as it looks like, there is a lot of work behind each post, recipe creating/testing/styling/ photographing and even after writing there is post editing, not to mention all the marketing work ( which…

    Apple Cinnamon Cake

    Right when the weather starts to cool down, cinnamon jumps into my head and of course since its autumn i have to use Apples, i just cant resist those shiny green apples at the market, i have to buy them and bake with them i just HAVE to !. this is an ideal cake for chill days, goes perfectly with a cup of warm coffee, moist and rich with cinnamon, the perfect combination you need to enjoy the flavor of a strong coffee.     this cake has a very thick batter not like other cakes, that will turn into super moist later after it bakes, i think because of…
