Ingredients:
1 Goulash roll (divide it into 2 parts)
2 cups of melted butter
for filling you'll need:
Crushed Nuts (as mush as you want)
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
2 tablespoons of sugar
Method:
Set the oven on 200 degree, wipe a tray with oil ,set the first part of the goulash on the tray then add the crushed nuts with cinnamon and the sugar ,then set the second part of the goulash.
Cut the goulash into squares ,spray it with the melted butter and then spray some water over the goulash -to be crunchy- and place the tray in the oven for 20 minutes.
The last step, pour the syrup over the goulash.
To make the syrup you'll need:
2 cups of sugar
1/2 cup of water

how to make beach-towel tote bag?
Turn bathroom towels into an all-in-one beach mat and tote bag. Start with 1 hand towel and
1 bath towel in the same color (length of hand towel should equal width of bath towel).
For handles, sew a 3-inch section from each end of a 21-inch length of webbing to center of 1 long side of hand towel. Repeat on 1 short side of bath towel. Place hand towel on bath towel, so handles are aligned and facing. Stitch towels together along 1 long edge of hand towel, leaving sides with handles open.
To form sides of bag, stitch along short sides of hand towel, 4 inches in from edges (or along decorative stripes), creating a pocket. Flip inside out, and tuck length of bath towel into pocket. At the beach, turn inside out, and unroll the towel to use as a mat. If you prefer, stuff the pocket with a soft item to make a pillow.

pieces from my weekend
The weather is very hot here(37 degree) so I stayed inside the past weekend and I literally didn't do anything.
I ate popsicles and watched "Something gotta give"..I'll never get tired of that movie.
And I made "Bake Rolls" It is super simple and VERY delicious and it can be an appetizer if you have guests over dinner or a snack if you're lazy to cook something .All you need is:
a baguette.
salt(as much as you want).
pepper(as much as you want).
Slice the baguette in cubes(or rings) ,put the cubes in a tray ,spray it with water, then add the salt and pepper ,and finally put the tray in the oven for 10 minutes (200 degree).

pieces from my weekend
Molten chocolate magic (PS read the recipe below).
A light snack (strawberry milkshake & biscuits).
a sneak peek at my shopping trip (more photos are coming up).
Molten chocolate magic recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, plus more to butter the molds
- 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, preferably Valrhona
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons flour, plus more for dusting
Method
- 1. In the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, heat the butter and chocolate together until the chocolate is almost completely melted. While that's heating, beat together the eggs, yolks, and sugar with a whisk or electric beater until light and thick.
- 2. Beat together the melted chocolate and butter; it should be quite warm. Pour in the egg mixture, then quickly beat in the flour, just until combined.
- 3. Butter and lightly flour four 4-ounce molds, custard cups, or ramekins. Tap out the excess flour, then butter and flour them again. Divide the batter among the molds. (At this point you can refrigerate the desserts until you are ready to eat, for up to several hours; bring them back to room temperature before baking.)
- 4. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Bake the molds on a tray for 6 to 7 minutes; the center will still be quite soft, but the sides will be set.
- 5. Invert each mold onto a plate and let sit for about 10 seconds. Unmold by lifting up one corner of the mold; the cake will fall out onto the plate. Serve immediately.
