It has been so long since I’ve shared a recipe here on the blog. For a change, I decided to step up the game and show a dish I enjoy doing because of the use of two ingredients I can’t eat: curry and coconut milk. So if you are like me and can’t even think about tasting the small amount you should give this recipe a try. I call this an NO-CURRY-LOVERS because I never liked the taste of curry and every time someone suggested to have curry for dinner I’m usually the first to complain. And I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t like it so want to give a second option for people that want to cook it but doesn’t like it. My father loves curry but usually, we never cook it because of neither my mother or myself like it. Also, I don’t like the …

Originaly posted on Black Leaves Tea Blog   Today I publish my 100th post on Black Leaves Tea and to celebrate that mark I thought it would be interesting to talk about my blogging journey. This blog is up since 2015, but I started way back when I was between 10 to 12 years old, maybe. I would love to be more precise but I’ve already deleted it – I think… It was really BAD! I can’t recall how I discover blogging but I know I created one at school for an IT class and by that time I already have been playing with it before.

Nowadays I still enjoy it A LOT and I get obsessed with some stories but is a side of me that I usually …

I am one of those persons who love being at home in a comfy pyjama all day long. At the same time, I love the outdoors. When you get up of the sofa and get dressed to go out to discover the city is such a nice and peaceful activity to do. But when you are visiting your hometown is even better! You have the chance to see what is different, what changed in the past month or what you remember from your childhood. Spread all over the city of Figueira da Foz, I have memories of when I was a little girl. In the last month, I did a small trip around one of my favorite places in the city as a kid:  the municipal garden. When I was 5 years old (15 years ago), my grandparents used to take me to the garden so I can feed the pigeons, …

Hello, everyone! Happy New Year!! You’re right… I am the worst blogger EVER!!! Is 20th of January 2016 and this is my first post of the year! But if you go check my last post it as been 26 days!! Almost a month without saying a word. I will give you all the excuses in the book (FYI, this is top level procrastination) so be prepared. Frist one: University If you currently are (or have been) in a university you know the struggle when it comes to organizing and keep doing your hobbies, sometimes is a choice between work and pleasure (obviously, work wins). Especially when you have as your main subject handwork. Second one: Family time Take some days off to stay home and enjoy quality family time is great during holidays, but that means no work done. Third one: no one knows! This is true and also an excuse. No …
