We didn’t know that was so precious.

Thought we would have more amazing trips till year 2020.

However, this quarantine might turn out to be a special period for us to get preparing for a new life.

Miss you Santa Monica.

柠檬薄荷叶饼干 . Lemon Balm Cookies

055A6212.jpg

记住祖辈父辈的节省,不买不需要的东西,这样可以有效阻止浪费,也可以为减少地球垃圾贡献一份力量。

记住年轻时的热血,不要放弃自己相信的,不要被周围的“说教”影响改变。成熟,有时候是一种油腻。

坚持返璞归真,很多美好的东西都蕴藏在身边的小事中,星空固然美丽,但身边的每一株花草也有自己的美好,它们在那里,陪伴着每日的生活,因为这种彼此的陪伴和默契,我会爱它们多于星空一些。

据说有些年份会有些难,其实,难,不过是心理上的感受。如何把外界对自己心理上的影响淡化,因此给向内的关注更多的空间,这是我要继续学习的。

下雨了。做个饼干吧。

Lemon balm cookie recipe:

1/3 cup sugar

1 cup butter

1 egg

2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

巴斯克奶酪蛋糕 . Basque cheesecake

Screen Shot 2020-04-29 at 11.27.01 AM.png

巴斯克奶酪蛋糕的精华部分就是烧焦的地方,当然不是那种焦炭,而是适当的焦糊。这种焦糊可以中和奶酪蛋糕的甜腻。

这个配方非常简单,我们只准备了20分钟就把它送进了烤箱,当然最好吃的时候出现在烤制出来后,再冷藏三小时。

以下是配方:

400克奶油奶酪

90克糖

2只鸡蛋

2只蛋黄

200克奶油

10克面粉

230摄氏度40分钟

The best part of the basque cheesecake is its burn part. The burnt flavour dilutes the sweet but enhance the aroma of creamy cheese 🧀 .

Maika and me made this super easy basque cheesecake within 1 hour. We only spent around 20 minutes on preparing the materials and put the batter in oven.

All you need is:

400g cream cheese

90g sugar

2 eggs

2 yolks

200g heavy cream

10g all purpose flour



40 minutes in 450 f oven

Serve before chilling in fridge for about 3 hours.
