Finally fulfilling one of my biggest dreams...

I deeply believe in my cooking talents - I simply don't get to use them that often. I've always wanted to be a great cook and, in these last days, I've been trying to put it into practice.
My grandmother and great-grandmother's recipes - specially cakes and cookies recipes - are resting in our living room since last summer and today, as I stared at all of Pingo Doce's cookies, I finally decided to cook something.


The initial plan was to make some biscuits with honey but I got the amounts wrong (because we have no kitchen scale!), so I decided to simply add some chocolate and... well, see if it worked.
I burnt the cookies a little too much, but I think it turned out pretty okay. I served them with black tea and my parents liked it (my proof: they ate them all).

I'll have to make those cookies again within a few days but, until then, I'm planning to make some noisette potatoes and a pineapple ice-cream. I dream of making pineapple ice-cream since I remember being alive, so this is the time. I'm going to cook EVERYTHING I've always wanted to cook. Now.
