summer ???

Is it really summer ?

At this moment there is so much rain falling in big showers

that it looks more like autumn !

We hope for some dryer weather

from now on ...

Sure daughter does hope so :

she wants to go to a "castlefest" party in Lisse.

She needed some special additions to her clothes

and I helped her a bit.

This bodice was made out of leather

and I hammered the eyelets in.

From a leftover piece she made a cuff

The hare has to be made permanent with her burning tool

I did some felting today

(noooo,  I won't show that because it will be a gift)

and since daughter was having diner here

I made the special recipe

"Kip in de Hoed"

(Chicken in the Hat)

For those who don't understand Dutch :

puff pastry, chickenbreast, hot currypowder

(uhhhm ... I don't like instant sauce from a package !)

pitted cherries, 6 ginger balls, 1 garlic clove

(and we always put in some fried onion and a zucchinni !)

and some crème fraîche.

Line a springform tin with the puff pastry and

before you put the fried mixture with all ingredients in,

add some spoons of breadcrumbs first at the bottom.

Add a cover of puff pastry and then a good half hour

in the oven

...

YUMMY !!!!!

Bon appetit !
