Pancake day!

Today is Mardi Gras day, so i'm very happy that I can make pancakes with the reason.
I had some problems with baking them, maybe because my pan was not correct? Recipe is from TastyArt, but I changed some ingridients. They were soft and tasting chocolate....

You will need:
1 egg
200 ml milk
2 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp butter
50 gr dark chocolate
1 Tbsp cocoa powder
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp backing powder
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Mix egg with sugar, add milk. Melt chocolate with butter, set aside. in separate bowl mix flour, cocoa, spices and backing powder. Incorporate half of flour mixture to egg mixture, than add chocolate and mix well. Add other half of flour and it's ready!
Bake in a pan with oil, and probably you will need a pan with teflon. That's maybe the reason why mine was burning. :)

Ice churches

This year Vilnius is a culture capital, so there are going to be lots of events.
This weekend they're making sculptures of ice - baroque churches. There will be educational excursions, some plays, concert. I thought it will be big nice churches, but there will be only front parts :)
Here you can see preparation work.

Spring is coming

There is no snow anymore. The sun is shining longer and longer. And yesterday first time I catched the "spring smell". You know it? It's wet and a bit warm.
I'm waiting waiting... and with the spring the love feeling is coming too. When you feel happy to be in this beautiful rebirthing world. When you want to sing, to breathe deep.
The begining of spring is the most beautiful time in a year - there is no many power, with all palette of green colour. And it's changing while you're watching.
...few weeks and it will be here.
