Domenica pomeriggio, sola in casa, stavo completando languidamente la composizione di questa torta di primavera: una base di impasto allo yogurt, c'è qualcuno che non ha ancora provato la torta con i vasetti di yogurt? una farcitura con composta di mela, panna montata e fragole. Dicevo appunto che stavo disponendo gli spicchi di fragola mentre alla Tv Barbara d'Urso intervistava una ex cocainomane che asseriva che gli amici economicamente with are the worst ... when you open the kitchen door and ...
a ... noisy group of children in overalls campaign has invaded my kitchen.
not tell you what interest ... strawberries, the first of the season, whipped cream, the Toorta!
"Whose?" With them was
Gemma, the eldest of my daughters, birthday a few days ago and we took advantage for another celebration.
We have, in no time at all, organized a small party of pseudo birthday while huddled in front of the stack to rinse your hands, who finished first, without being served ... Well ... What a joy to see them ... sympathy that I have done.
"Come on, Gemma Cut were hungry ... us than we allow ourselves a cup of coffee ... For them, tea is sacred and when they play they are capable, as my mother says, if Mangena na ccu bbanca
"I want the piece with more strawberries!"
"hmmm ... Natalia is very good!"
Natalia but how do you make cakes so good? "
... Meanwhile ... the usual maneuvers of paper plates and cutlery ...
"I do not want the cream"
"I can have another piece?"
"Natalia, I fall! ... But ... I was good from another piece mo '?"
"Natalia" - Andrea said "why do not you open up a bakery? Remember that cake we made together? Giocaree that everyone was out to help you whip me?" and with your thumb and forefinger pointing down imitated the gesture of the hand blender ...
E 'was a breath of freshness, dirty shoes, cheeks reddened by the sun of spring and locks of hair escaped from the ponytail ... sincere gratitude and affection for healthy ... of Friendship true, that of the heart or the head ... that only children can feel ... stripped from the calculation of rational adults, often victims of their preconceptions and lack of objectivity.
It took less than 5 minutes, the table was filled with colored plates become dirty and empty, they drank, ate some strawberries left whole and leaves, leaving only a piece of cake, I wanted to keep the one of my daughters, Catherine , that was not with them ... had it not been for her would have done it all, a whole pie ...
I have rejoiced in the afternoon ... I always thought that the pleasure I feel when I prepare something edible is the same test when a woman nursing a child ... the gaze of the child at that moment ... contains all the gratitude, contentment and tenderness and is often accompanied by the hand that holds the thumb rests on the mother or her breast ...
Cooking for others is an act of love for me ... is to feed people with something to which I was created by my hands ... something of mine ... just like a mother's milk.
Today those children have unknowingly given me ... a moment of happiness ...
Thanks to Andrea, Luca, Rosanna, Bibiana, Sara, Laura, Charlotte, Simon, Gemma and Catherine.
