Otra cocina moderna

Sunday, 19 July 2009

Ya se que parecen compras compulsivas, y quizas lo sean, pero es que no me puedo resistir! Me gustaba la idea de hacer una cocina (o casa algun dia) tipo Ikea y esta es perfecta. Y cuando encontre la caja para hacer escenas ya no hubo mas dudas ni excusas. Todavia esta todo un poco provisional: tengo que poner papeles y suelos, hacer baldas, buscar un horno y frigorifico, poner una mesa que quede bien y, por supuesto, hacer un monton de comida y detalles!

I know it looks like another of my compulsive buys, and maybe it is, but I can't help it! I liked the idea of making an Ikea style kitchen scene (or a dolls house one day) and this kitchen was perfect for it. When I found the scene box there were no more doubts or excuses. I still have lots to do: put a nice wallpaper and floor, make some shelves, find an oven and a fridge, find a nice table and, of course, make lots of food and details!

Oficialmente adicta al merengue

Monday, 8 June 2009

Casi todas las miniaturas que hecho estos dias llevan merengue. De momento os pongo porque las demas no han salido bien y el tiempo de Londres no acompaña para sacar mas.


The most of the miniatures I have made recently have "meringure". I think I can officially call myself "addicted to meringue". For now I post 3 pictures, as the other pictures weren't good enough and the weather in London won't let me take good pictures.

Tartas

Wednesday, 27 May 2009

Hoy ha sido un dia muy productivo, cosa que no suele pasarme demasiado porque la rara vez que tengo un da libre en el trabajo me paso la mitad del tiempo decidiendo que quiero hacer. Tras unos experimentos fallidos y alguna foto que no salia bien os puedo poner tres de mis creaciones. Hoy, no se por que, me ha dado por las tartas, que nunca me gusta demasiado hacer y la verdad es que las he difrutado muchisimo.


Today has been a very productive day, which doesn't happen very often. Normally I spend half of my few days off tryinig to decide what I am going to make, so I waste half of the day. I've been able to finish three tarts, the others are unfinished or the pictures were horible. I normally don't enjoy very much making cakes as I never know how to make them nice (I just eat them!) but this time I had lots of ideas.

Brochetas de pollo

Mi ultima creacion, que ya era hora de ir haciendo algo nuevo. Son unas brochetas de pollo con lechuga, naan y salsa de yogurt. Tambien la podeis ver en The Minifood Blog, cuyo link esta a la derecha del blog.

My latest creation, chicken shish kebabs with salad, naan and yogurt sauce. Perfect for the good weather! (Hopefully it will last some more days here in London) It already has been featured in The Minifood Blog. The link can be found on the right of my blog.

Compras de Semana Santa

Wednesday, 20 May 2009

Aunque me ha costado un poco, ya he sacado las fotos de las cosillas que compre en Semana Santa. Estuve en Bath y tuve la suerte de encontrarme con una tienda de casasitas, asi que no me podia llevar mejor recuerdo.


Although it's been a while since Easter, I didn't take pictures of the things I bought. I went to Bath and I was very lucky because there was a dollhouse shop.
