ANGEL MATEUS CHRISTENING CAKE

Christening Cake for a sweet five year old boy, Mateus.

"May God richly bless you/ As you take this step of faith/
Being baptized in His name/ And to walk within His grace/
So you may always carry/ The light of Jesus love/
To those who may not have/ Faith in God above"

Yellow Plum Jam - Recipe

If God gives you plenty plums, make plums jam ;)




1. Remove the stones and squeeze the juice of a lime over the plums. 
2. Boil them for 1 hour on low heat, stirring occasionally. Don't add any water and don't cover the pan.
3. Add the sugar: for 1,800kg of plums (without the stones), I used 500g of special sugar for jam plus 600g brown sugar. Join 2 cinnamon sticks and 2 cloves (you can add more or less, depending on your taste). 
4. Boil for more 30 minutes, again stirring occasionally.


5. Meanwhile, scald jars and lids and put them on the oven for 10 minutes, 100ºC.
6. Fill the jars with the hot jam and let them cool upside down.

Schoko Rosinen Chocolate Shortbread Cookies

Make the best shortbread cookies dough recipe you have (chocolate or not), mix a good amount of "Choco Something" (I mixed a bag of Schoko Rosinen). Be creative ;) and don't over bake. We want them soft and moist inside...




Chocolate is the answer. Who cares what the question is!
