Back to school 2, Dazzling up Pencils...

Hi guys!

A little easy diy, we are going to spice up some pencils, again I like to buy quality pencils for the kids but they are rarely fun to look at, and after customizing her pens, Matilda asked me : '' What about my pencils?!'' So I came up with this...

You will need:
White glue
Glitters
Water
Paper
Pencils
Paintbrush for glue

Take your piece of paper, fold it in 2.
Unfold it, and put it flat on your working space.
Pour your chosen colour of glitters on the paper.
Take your pencil, and with the glue paint the area you want to cover with the glitters.
Dip the glued part of your pencil in the glitters, let it dry for a little bit.
If you want to cover your pencils with differents colors then use an other piece of paper and do the same.
Then you can refold your paper and pour back the excess of glitters back in their packaging.

Once your pencil is covered and dry, mix the glue with a little bit of water to make the glue more runny then apply carefully all over your pencil, it will avoid you to get glitters all over, let it dry, apply a second layer, let it dry, apply a third layer, let it dry.

Et voilà!
See you soon!

Super Delicious vanilla/lime Yogurt cake with an electric Lime icing decorated with raspberries and Smarties.

Hi guys!

My kids made this amazing cake for us last night, it was soooo yummy!

Here's the recipe...

You will need 150 g of butter, a vanilla yogurt (when using the yogurt, keep the pot, we will need it to measure the rest of the ingredients), 3 pots of flour, 2 pots of brown sugar, 1 vanilla pod, 3 eggs, 4 teaspoons of baking powder, 4 limes, 2 pots of icing sugar, some raspberries and smarties to decorate.

Preheat the oven at 180°C.
In the big bowl of the mixer, put the butter, the vanilla yogurt, the flour, the brown sugar, the inside of the vanilla pod, the eggs, the baking powder, the juice of 3 limes and mix all for a good 4 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a buttered and floured dish and put it in the hot oven, let it bake for 45 minutes. Once cooked take it off the oven tray and let it cool down.
Mix the icing sugar with the lime juice, one teaspoon at the time and mix well, we need the icing to be nice and creamy, not too liquid, not too hard.
Cover the top of the cake with the icing and let it drip on its own on the sides.
Decorate the cake with the raspberries and the smarties.
And voilà!! Super easy, super tasty!!!

We serve it with greek yogurt and I can tell you it is insanely good!!

See you soon!!!
