With more time to myself I had times to try to cook cakes. My first
cake was a banana bread, and then I cooked variation of the same using
apple, pumpkin or adding chocolate powder to the banana bread. All of
them were absolutely delicious and very easy to cook to my surprise.
The best was the banana bread, you absolutely have to try it.
INGREDIENTS
3 bananas (or 2 cups grinded and evaporated apple or pumpkin pulp)
3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar (100g)
1/2 cup cream (~125g)
6 tablespoons butter
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sodium bicarbonate
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
1 packet of ready made hot chocolate - optional (I saw a variation
using green tea powder - yummy)
METHOD
1. Mix the melted butter and sugar with a mixer.
2. Add bananas and eggs and keep on mixing. (don't mix too well to
mash the banana too much.
3. Add everything else and keep on mixing.
4. Oil one cake tray and place the content into the oven 175 Celcius
degrees 40-50 mins.
Enjoy! We really enjoyed it with some cream and strawberry marmalade.

It's a hard task to design a costume that is describing a country, making the girl beautiful and not funny. These are my favorites from 2012. As I've seen from previous years the designers seem to get better :). (not Romania)

Some favorites from the bazaar
While walking through the bazaar, I noticed some stairs and people who were climbing them so I decided to follow them despite being with a push-chair. It was such a great decision because the stairs were leading to a beautiful and old restaurant.
Besides the usual kebab that you can find in any restaurant they had some other food as well. Dizi, which is a meat soup, Beryiani - minced meat cooked in a specific Isfahani way and served on sangak bread, koofteh - a huge minced meat ball with rice inside, mirza ghasemi - eggplant cooked with garlic and tomato paste and kashke-bademjun - eggplant cooked with kashk. I let the pictures speak for themselves.

Easy to cook, healthy and tasty, my baby can vouch for this :).
INGREDIENTS
150 g barley (use rice or some other grain if more convenient but then it won't be barley soup)
250 g mushroom
1 carrot
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 onion
1 garlic
2 eggs
1/2 cup of greeneries (dill, parsley, mint, basil, etc use your favorites)
1 small floret broccoli
2 lemons
1 tablespoon dry chicken stock
salt as required
2 ltrs water
20 g butter
METHOD
1. Wash 3 times the barley grains and then boil them.
2. When they are almost ready, add all the chopped vegetables, butter, chicken stock and the rest of the water.
3. When everything is boiled, add the lemon, taste and salt accordingly.
4. Stir the eggs with a fork and then slowly pour them into the boiling soup mixing with the fork continuously.
5. Leave to rest for 5 minutes and then serve it. Enjoy!
I love how the freshness of the vegetables is complemented by the barley grains which is a bit crunchy even when boiled.

Except living for 3 days in Hotel Abbasi which was a pleasure by itself, Isfahan was a nice city to visit with lots of things to see and do. We haven't seen all the tourist attractions, we missed the pigeon towers and the moving towers (twin towers, you go up in one of them and shake it and the other one will also shake). But the ones we've seen were really lovely and worth seeing.

The glorious architecture of Iran, like a piece of gem, has been constantly glittering among other architectural monuments of the world and has occupied a worthy place in the world of art. It was in the reign of the Safavids, that the city of Isfahan reached such a renown and elegance which was called " half of the world".
Among what has remained from the age of the Safavids, there still exists a school, bazaar and caravansaray complex which sparkles like a piece of jewelry at the side of Chahar Bagh street.
This complex was built at the time of king Sultan Hossein of Safavids about 300 years ago. King Soltan Hossein attributed this magnificent complex of building to his mother. That is why it is called "the school and caravansaray of Madar-shah" (which means king's mother)."

Huge crowds, drums, feathers... but it's not a carnival, it's ashura in Tehran... a time to mourn for emam Hosein for the religious shia and a time to meet boys/ girls for the liberal young Iranians (there is more makeup sold at the time of ashura :) . Free tea, milk, cookies and food everywhere you see! An excitement that you can't find in any other time in Iran. Everyone, religious or not, is so to go out in the street and meet their neighbors and celebrate together with free food and drinks. And everything happens at night.
There are lots of processions on all the streets which begin with an "alam" (sort of a long T decorated with different animals and adorned with animals) .
I went on one of the nights to see the celebrations and I went in the tent of the women. Most of them were chatting along and did not listen to the religious speech, when I asked them what the "mulah" (muslim priest) is talking about they were not able to explain. From what I understood they were not missing much because that particular mulah was talking about the expenses of the "haiat" (neighborhood) and the food that was prepared, rather than the life and good deeds of the emam Hosein.
For me as a foreigner it was a strange feeling seeing men hitting themselves with a "zangir"(chains), I asked a young man if it is painful and he said no and another one said a little. The rhythm of the songs played was very exciting and since I love dancing I was very much tempted to dance but would have been very disrespectful to do so.
One of the days is special since they are celebrating a small baby which was killed in the entourage of emam Hosein and many mothers dress their babies like Arabs. It's very cute to see them and sad at the same time to think of the innocent life which was lost at that time...

My dear friends have organized a grand lunch which was kind of farewell for us. I made a small embroidery/ crochet for their gorgeous baby boy...
Start spreading the news.... lalalala. Thank you Elena!
Make plans and God will smile at them... but it's good sometimes to look forward and decide what to do with your days. So here are things I am looking forward to do in Iran.
1. Visit Golestan palace. I've visited Niavaran, Niavaran II and Saadabad but on the day we visited Golestan was closed.
2. Visit Esfahan. There is so much art in Esfahan and almost all Iranian artists are born / formed there!
3. See the desert. I've been to Iran but I have not seen the desert until now. I want to go somewhere where I don't see even one living soul (except for the ones accompanying me).
4. Learn some craft, maybe make some of the beautiful blue pottery that they have over there!
5. Visit some more beautiful mosques (too bad I can't take pictures) and the Christian Orthodox Church on Christmas. Visit some traditional restaurants and tea places.
6. Go to an old Persian bath. I haven't been yet. I will not bathe there, I can't be comfortable naked close to strangers, but one that has been transformed into a museum is good with me.
Things that I am not looking forward to:
1. Having to wear a scarf outside of the house. For the first few days it's fun and I can pretend to be a Hollywood actress under cover, but after that it's just annoying.
2. Long sleeve all the time.
3. Manteau, if it's something that's really ugly in this world is a manteau. It looks like a housedress with buttons in front, or the other things that manteau reminds me of is a chemists robe. I can honestly say I like the scarf more...

You go shopping, then you get out with your purchases and a lot of bags! Why not to be more fashionable and earth friendly and use one of these gorgeous bags:
Maz Jobrani- Holywood actor:
"LET’S MAKE A MOVIE!
In my 15 years as a Middle Eastern-American actor in Hollywood, I have yet to see a role of a Middle Eastern hero in American cinema. I don’t blame anyone in particular for this. I just think it’s because we haven’t had writers, producers and directors who have been too concerned about how Middle Easterners are depicted in American movies. That’s why I have chosen to change that trend and make this film. I believe it is a crucial time to have characters in American movies that portray Middle Easterners in a positive light. Along with my co-writer and producer Amir Ohebsion, we have set out to break new ground and transform hearts and minds through comedy with this movie that we call, “Jimmy Vestvood, Amerikan Hero.” After all, you don’t have to be American to be an American hero!"
He is indeed a funny guy and one of my favorite comedians. Look how cute it is and help change the world.

I used to travel light ever since I discovered how difficult a snail's life is... Then I got lots of generous friends and family and a taste for fashion. Now 7 years later I have to leave the "island of love" for a land of desert and snow, of miniatures and caricatures and I have to say I accumulated quite a lot of luggage. Emotional, material, knowledge, friendships... On the run to new beginnings, challenges and experiences.
I am looking much forward to discover myself from the perspective of a free woman, but with new restrictions, to see who I am not covered by the veil of my profession, but literally covered by a veil.
I came to the island as one, now there is one more who has come out from my womb and carries my heart in her small hands. For her I have to struggle and find the best place in the world.
So many mixed feelings having to leave my temporary home and wonderful friends. I remember my family which within few generations has changed so many countries in search of peace and prosperity. They had to leave everything behind, houses, family, friends and take the bare minimum with themselves that that had to survive on. They did all that at the whim of Lady History who was so cruel to commit so many murders along time, or just to seek adventure and novelty.
What makes me travel this time? Circumstance, maybe destiny.

When my baby got a present from one of our friends one cup and plate set from Unicef, I thought to my self "this is such a special gift!" Then I went to Unicef's store and I saw how this gift will help other children drink clean water or be vaccinated I was more and more impressed by the value of the gift. The sell pretty home decorations, jewelry, cards, intelligent family games, valuable books and many other stuff.
This makes the perfect Christmas gift. Visit the shop here.

On Saturday I attended an art discussion at Marion's. It was a really a beautiful morning at their hill villa.
I think I have a crush!
Here I am going again on an Iranian trip, this time not knowing how long it will be. So I need some nice, yet modest clothes to cover the most part of the skin... Since I don't like the fashion over there too much, what I plan to do is buy some long sleeve dresses and adapt them as "manto" (which is just like a long shirt with buttons or without. I prefer without since a long shirt with buttons reminds me of lab experiments or a house dress.
These are my choices, more to my taste... Of course I will wear all with pants and in case of short sleeve with add on sleeves that can be bought.
Zara choices
Debenhams choices
Sigh....

Even though the movie title reminded me of a cartoon, The intouchables is far from being one. Nice comedy on friendship and hardships, humanity and its facets. Beautiful storyline inspired by a real facts. Great acting!

Not so happy but turning it happier by listening:
Those Eyes
Yesterday I met a sky without sun
and a man without shame
A saint in prison
and a sad song without an owner
And I met your black eyes
And now I cannot
live without them
I ask the sky only one thing
That in your eyes I can live
I have wandered around the entire world
and I have come to tell you just one thing
I travelled from Bahrein to Beirut
I went from the north to the south pole
and I never found eyes like those
Like those that you have
Yesterday I saw a woman pass by
under her camel
A river of salt and a boat
abandoned in the desert
And I saw your black eyes pass by
And now I cannot
live without them
Lord of the sky, I'm calling you
In his eyes I see my life
I come to you from this world
Oh God, please answer my call
I went from the north to the south pole
and I never found eyes like those
Like those that you have
I ask the sky only one thing
That in your eyes I can live
I have wandered around the entire world
and I have come to tell you just one thing
I travelled from Bahrein to Beirut
I went from the north to the south pole
and I never found eyes like those
Like those that you have
Isn't Shakira damn amazing?

I would have been in US. Shopping at Target and buying:
100% fashion craving

Ever since I saw Marina, I knew there's something special about her. Not only her beauty! Today my suspicions were confirmed when I saw her beautiful clicks and artistic descriptions of them. I selected just few of them to mark the passing of the summer!
Even if I loved the idea so, the opportunity of cooking with a friend didn't come up until recently. A friend in need is a friend in deed and I did prove a friend in deed for Kathy. She needed a place to stay so I offered one bedroom in my house. This lovely lady is from Sri Lanka and one of the nice things that came about this living arrangement is the food. I had once attended a Sri Lankan party and was impressed with the food, especially the salad! So I just had to ask her to cook some Sri Lankan food. She prepared egg rolls.

Exuberance of color to depict one of the strongest type of love you can find in the world: mother's love. I would love to have one of his paintings in my house :)
Yet another talented painter and a tribute to motherhood, womanhood.
Hello, I'm back after a looong long time.... Now I just want to share my plans... My company is having a silent auction for charity for autistic children and I volunteered to offer my services as a chef :P. I am going to offer 3 dinners to maximum 6 lucky people. That's 3*6. Looking forward for a nice cooking session followed by house decorating and dinner with office colleagues!

It was so nice to discover on FB an uni friend who started his own page as an amateur photographer! I like his detail oriented photographs and his way of capturing light.
