HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARC.

I hope you have a great day with family/friends in that beautiful country of yours!! Best go for a ride to escape the political nightmares!! I'm sure you must have a favorite cafe to stop and relax at.

Mind you it's winter over there so might be a tad cold!!

Cheers,

Reece.

Thank you guys, you are the greatest.

It was a sunny day and thus a sunny bicylce ride to my parents on the other side of the city, and I then prepared Turkish pita bread au gratin with a wok-fried filling based on fish, Feta sheep cheese, vegetables, and Gyros spice. My own creation.

Afterwards there came my Mum with hand-baked Dresdner Eierschecken (LINK), one of my favourite cakes. I ate an extra piece for each of you, since you kindly could not join the frenzy.

Freixenet sparkling wine, and coffee, and Baileys in three different tastes, and the glasses always were full nevertheless.

No further meals are planned for the rest of the week. LOL

The cake in the link looks extra yummy, glad you had a great day!

Eierschecken are wonderful, something like the deluxe version of cheesecake and then some, but they really need some working time invested, thats why I do not do them myself, even with a baking mix (which you must order online, supermarkets in my region do not offer it, its really a regional speciality and outside that region almost impossible to find in bakeries).

I could exclusively live of Eierschecken. And of Donauwellen. LINK . And of Guglhupf. LINK And of Butterkuchen. LINK.

The greatest meanness in life? What is delicious often is unhealthy, and what is healthy often tastes uninteresting.

I feast in cakes only once or twice a year. But then with a run-up and a header.
