Hi there again, well, Saturday was a great success, I had to prepare dinner for four, we had company over for a dinner. I already wrote it before what I was going to be making. The manti was fantastic, it really was the star of the night, I got so many compliments for that. It really worth the time and the work that I put in.

I posted some pictures of the dessert that I was preparing, " candied butternut squash with Kahlua whipped cream". So I decided to make also the brittle to give a little more fun to that dessert. "Brittle" is basically caramelized sugar with some nuts or some seeds, in my case I used some pumpkin seeds, "pepitas". Well guess what? My brittle did not caramelized and came out some kind of softer version of it... :) I was devastated, but I still managed to use that sweet treat as the part of the dessert, I poured it over the squash pieces and covered it with the Kahlua whipped cream. It looked and tasted amazing. So what I am going to say is "be brave and creative, it works..."
Anyways, after the Saturday dinner, Sunday was totally a relaxing, and a laid back day. I guess after all that "vino" that we consumed that was the expected consequence of it. :)
Now it's another Monday, another workday... Have a wonderful week my dear friends...
Talk to you soon... :)
