Churros with a difference for Valentine's Day!!!!!


Before we begin, I must confess that posting a dessert for Valentine's Day was NEVER my intention!

How did this happen? Why did I not want to post about food for Valentine's Day? Well, quite simply, "How it happened" I shall explain later. As for "not wanting to publish a post regarding food for Valebntine's Day" is just me being selfish LOL.

You see I'm stuck in hospital, feeling sorry for myself, thoroughly fed up and will be eating (probably alone) some c..p awful hospital food as usual, on the eve of 14th February!!!!

How it happened!!!!! Well, having been perusing popular sites such as Tastespotting, Photograzing/Seriouseats and Foodgawker etc, I became increasingly fed up with being offered very little other than "Valentine's Day recipes"!!!!

It's almost as though the whole world has been abducted by aliens and can do nothing other than think of Valentine's Day. I began to resent it and was starving for "norma/everyday" recipes.

Rant over LOL. Anyway, I stumbled upon a recipe which caught my eye. Nobody was more surprised than me I can tell you. Of course it's not one of my own recipes and I certainly am not in a position to be preparing it for Valentine's Day (well not this year anyway) but I decided to jump on the bandwagon and publish a recipe for this upcoming event LOL.

So, without further ado......



Published by Woman's Day site caught my eye because it is an everyday dessert with a simple twist! (excuse the pun) making is suitable for valentine's day too.

This dessert not only holds a romantic name but I have images in my mind ot how to eat it too. No more said, I'm sure you get the idea LOL.

Aproveche lovers everywhere.

Hi Deb,

I'm Aileen from the Philippines. I love food blogs. The first thing I check when blogging are food blogs to check on recipes I can try.

Churros is something I wanted to do last Christmas and sell too, but to due to hectic work schedule, it did not materialize.

By the way, I learned about your blog through BoostMyBlog Friday and I am now one of your followers, please follow mine too.

Sorry to hear you are still in hospital Debs, hope they let you out very soon! Can sympathise re: the food, just did an 8 day stint myself, never seen so many banana's which were green, yet black at the same time! Take care xxxx

Hi Anne, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I had no idea you had been poorly too. Get well soon. I know what you mean about the bananas though.

Ah...as you've seen I've seem to let V-Day go past without making appropriate recipe for it!

I did try and make a rhubarb souffle at the weekend but I pushed it too far with experiment and they fantastically sunk on me!...never mind!

You know I've been meaning to make the Portuguese version of those doughnuts called "Sonhos" which translates to "Dreams" don't know why!

Here's to celebrating valentine's day next year with all the trimmings of cheesy romance :)
