Recovery Dessert Nostalgia



Who doesn’t have nostalgic days? I guess these rainy days remind me of home and those reflective moments--I supposed-- we all get, from time to time. So besides looking pictures of my family and singing songs in Spanish over and over again…


I’ve made Flan –Caramel Custard- for three consecutive days this week. And I’ve been eating spoonfuls of Dulce de Leche every time I opened the fridge.
True, some people—like hubby J.-- would say that I’m  eating too many flans and Dulce de Leche. But helps to ensure a good recovery from my Nostalgia!


I wish you all a nice rest of the week :)

And a little bit from home...

    Lo entiendo... esto es parte del carrusel, no? Pronto te recuperarás, aunque eso es como decir que es una enfermedad y no tiene por qué ser así... ;)

    Nothing like spoonfuls of dulce de leche to make your day.
    My mother used to boil it until it was solidified, then slice it for dessert.

    I know what is like. I've been overseas from many years and there's always a nostalgic day in my life once in a while :)But at least you're having something delicious for dessert :)

    Beautiful shots!

    I love using a carafe.. it keeps the table looking chic, nice and inviting, when my husband puts a carton on the table, it makes me feel like I'm in a truck stop somewhere.

    Creo que la nostalgia es parte d ela vida, de todos y siempre aparece cuando menos te la esperas. Es necesaría para asimilar cosas que han sucedido, y los sabores y los olores son los que hacen encender la luz roja. Pronto estarás inmersa en otra nueva etapa, y esta quedará olvidada, hasta que vuelvas a abrir el baúl de las fotos. Mientras como flanes y dulce de leche, que no dura para siempre. Mil besos

    Hola Aldi,

    Espero pronto se te pase la nostalgia. Es un mal comun de los que vivimos fuera de nuestro pais. Y entiendo perfectamente lo de buscar alivio con el Dulce de Leche. A mi cuando me pasa eso cocino tostadas. Me hacen sentir cerca de los mios. Pongo alguna estacion de radio de Mexico en el internet y me pongo como loquita a cantar las canciones en espanol aunque solo a medias conosca la letra. :) Por un momento escuchar los anuncios de la radio, como que el trafico en tal calle esta pesado o que pusieron en oferta los tomates en algun supermercado que me es familiar, me hacen sentir que por ese instante viaje y estuve ahi. Solo cierro los ojos y sonrio.

    Te envio un abrazo,

    Mely

    Creo que la nostalgia nos define a los argentinos por excelencia..a veces, no es buena..porque nos paraliza, pero a veces, es el testigo de que no olvidamos lo bueno, que apreciamos aquello que paso y ya no està..En este mundo, donde solo parece importar lo presente, quizas la nostalgia nos ennoblezca como seres humanos!

    A great way to cure your nostalgia. I feel nostalgic too. I really miss England and my English grandparents who have passed away (no family left there)...

    Cheers,
