waiting for a miracle

Waiting for a miracle is the name of the Rus/Ukr forum topic where women wait for an answer a.k.a. miracle. They all write and look for support there... I thought about writing (Hello, I submitted on Feb 7th in Baku, good luck to all of us) and then saw no point in doing so. If there was someone from the same city then it'd made sense to wait together, but unfortunately all those lovely ladies are from Kyiv, St. Petersburg, Moscow or some other parts of Russia. Exactly 10 days have passed, even though it's not the end of the day yet I'm pretty sure we won't get any news today.
How come at night before I fall asleep when I think about what to write next in my blog I get so many ideas. Now that I actually sit down to write I don't know what to write about. I guess next time when I get super duper cool ideas I have to take notes at night :)
I made a cool chocolate cake yesterday. The recipe I found just browsing through youtube videos. An american who has lived in Paris posted this recipe in her video that she called simple french chocolate cake. It turned out good actually but a little bit flat, I was expecting it to be a little more puffy. I guess it was because I forgot to add half cup of sugar after beating the egg whites. The picky kids here loved it and said it is similar to chocolate cakes that they eat in cafés. My aunt said she'd prefer to eat chocolate instead of this flat something. I am quoting her "It is not a chocolate and neither it is a cake". I kinda tried to explain that it is almost a brownie but they didn't really understand me I guess. Oh well...I promise to give the recipe once I have my own kitchen. The first 2-3 months I will be sitting at home with cutie pie Pepper. So while waiting at home for Miika to come home from work I can make all those recipes that I bookmarked while I was here. If I'm not too lazy I'll post the best recipes with my own photos.
I just love cooking. You have to know I'm crazy about cool kitchen utensils. When I was in Istanbul I used to go to IKEA and look at all that kitchenware. I was dreaming that once I start working I will buy pans to bake muffins, cakes and all that stuff. I dream that my kitchen will be always neat and that in our house there will always be homemade food. Don't get me wrong I don't plan to bake 24/7 and get extra calories everyday. I am into healthy cooking! I actually hate fatty, oily food. So I will always try to find healthy recipes. My friend Arzu who also enjoys cooking shared with me a website where recipes from different food blogs are gathered together. It is funny because sometimes I click on a recipe and it turns out that it is in Polish, German, Spanish or some other language. Most of it is in English though. The food on photos looks so yummy! I can't wait to try those recipes :)))
It is such a great feeling when someone eats the food you prepared and compliments it especially when the person is someone very special...<3
