Chicory tart

Chicory tart tris

Did you happen to be sutisfied because you make something that everbody eat as you want??? ahahaha yes!!!! Not to be repetitive, but tonight I was able to bring my daughter to eat chicory :)ahahah with a nice tart chicory.

Well .. my husband and I we would have also eaten simply sauteed or otherwise smooth , but for her it’s impossible.
Let’s say that you will not and the second time I buy it, other years I’ve never done and I regret it because in addition to being very good I found that has a taste that I really like.
I invented these little cakes, accomplices of the molds heart-shaped silicone with a heart and the little mouth of your puppies is conquered! So,  chicor tart:

I thought to cook a quiche with pasta brisa

Pasta brisa is easy to make at home, but for those are in a hurry  It’is useful that is located on the bank of the supermarket! here’s how I did it:

As always we are fast! ahahahaha

If there was a tax on time would somehow, it seems that today is the most valuable asset!

Some time ago I saw an interesting film “Timeline,” you have you seen? Everyone was paying anything to survive over time. People had a bracelet on their wrist which measured everything, it was anchored at one and the unit of measure was just  time! Finished the AA arrangement was paid with the same life! hallucinating!

I do not like science fiction, but sometimes they make me think, do you remember “Star Trek”? when they spoke with the remote phones and two-way radios? think about where we are today with technology and it’s only been 20 years. Our phones are everything and if you want you can also see, just get the video! I’m waiting for teleport….ahahahah 🙂

The world runs, technology is running, time is running out … and we run? maybe too much!
