Quando a chuva e o vento batem nas nossas janelas, eu penso no verão e nos dias de céu azul que hão-de voltar (eu adoro dias de céu completament azul)...tal como aquele dia no verão passado quando apanhámos pêras e ameixas com o Vovô! Os meus pequeninos divertiram-se tanto nesse dia...e adoraram provar a fruta também!</div>

<i>When the rain and wind are hitting our windows outside I think of summer time and that blue sky days, will come again (I love days with completly blue sky)...just like that day last summer when we were harvesting pears and plums with Vovô! My little ones had so much fun that day...and loved to do the tasting as well!</i></div>

Today is my blog's anniversary! In the summer of 2007 I started discovering the online crafty community and fell in love with reading blogs...so much that I created my (sometimes neglected) own. There has been a lot of changes in my life in these 7 years, naturally, and I love to see that documented on the blog. A few weeks ago, a dear friend of mine asked me why had I never written a post about the name of the blog...so I have decided to celebrate this special blog-anniversary day with a little piece on that and a recipe.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I must start saying that I love cakes and all sweet things. That's the main reason why I'm not in speaking terms with my weighting scales, but I think that life wouldn't be as fun without cake so I keep eating them! Anyway...my love affair with the Portuguese cakes called "Bolas de Berlim" started when I was child on holidays in Montegordo (a beach in my beloved home country of Portugal). The sea water was warm and I loved nothing else but swimming and playing in it…except when I heard a man walking down the beach, all dressed in white, singing “ooooooohhhhh bolinhas berliiiiiiiiim”! That was it; I was out of the water as quickly as I could and straight to my parents’ parasol asking “please, please, please” for one “Bola de Berlim”. The man carried a wicker basket and inside were these lovely golden cakes in the shape of a ball ("bola" in Portuguese)…he’d stop whenever people approached him wanting to buy these delicious cakes and you would see him surrounded by kids and grown ups alike in no time.</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
Nothing tastes like it to this day…maybe it’s the taste of sweet memories that make it extra special for me. I named my blog after my favourite cakes because I wanted it to be as sweet as them. I know...but it's true :)<br />

<b>Bolas de Berlim – Recipe (found in an old family recipe book)</b><br />
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
* For the dough:</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 0.5kg flour</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 25g baker’s yeast</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 75g sugar</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 1 dl lukewarm water (to dissolve the yeast)</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 1 egg</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 3 egg yolks</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– flour (for sprinkling)</div>
<div dir="ltr">
* For the Portuguese Pastry Cook Custard (filling):</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 0.5l of milk</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 1 lemon peel</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 60g of flour</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 150g of sugar</div>
<div dir="ltr">
– 6 egg yolks<br />
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
First, dissolve the baker’s yeast in lukewarm water. then
mix it with the flour, egg, egg yolks and sugar. Knead the mixture
well, until it acquires the consistency of a bread dough, then sprinkle
it with flour, place it in a container and cover with a cloth.</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
Leave it to ferment for about an hour in a warm place.
Then knead it lightly and cut off 50-gram-pieces of dough. Shape these
into small balls. Arrange the balls of dough on a narrow, spread out
cloth sprinkled with flour, and leave them to ferment until they double
in size. Pick them up carefully one at the time and fry them in
moderately hot cooking oil. then drain and sprinkle them or coat them in
a mixture of sugar and cinnamon in the proportion of five parts of
sugar to one part of cinnamon. Open them up in the middle with scissors
and add the filling.</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
For the Portuguese Pastry Cook Custard: mix the sugar
with the flour, add the egg yolks and then add the milk little by
little, stirring continuously. Heat this up with bubbles, stirring
continuously especially near the side of the pan. remove from the heat
and pour into a cold container.</div>

Já vos posso mostrar o casaquinho de bebé que tenho andado a tricotar nos últimos meses (muito devagarinho, com outros projectos ao mesmo tempo). O casquinho chama-se "Little Coffee Bean" e podem encontrá-lo <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/little-coffee-bean-cardigan" target="_blank">aqui</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Foi um prazer tricotar este casaquinho! Foi muito fácil, muito bem escrito e perfeito para eu usar lã que eu tenho no meu "stash". Só tive problemas em encontrar os botões certos...tenho que dizer que a retrosaria local não tem uma grande variedade de botões mas, felizmente, eu tinha "alguns" em stock; mesmo não sendo do tamanho certo para mim (eu gostava que tivessem sido um pouco maiores), eu corrigi o tamanho das casas dos botões. E assim o casaquinho esteve pronto a tempo do Baptizado do bebé Rían.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>I can finally show you the baby cardigan that I have been knitting for the past few months (very slowly, with other projects also on the go). The cardigan is called Little Coffee Bean Cardigan and you can find the pattern for <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/little-coffee-bean-cardigan" target="_blank">here</a>.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>This cardigan was an absolute pleasure to knit! It was so easy, so well written and perfect for me to use some yarn of my stash. I only had trouble finding the right buttons...I must say that the local harbedeshery doesn't have a great selection of buttons but, fortunatelly I have "a few" in my stash; although they weren't the perfect size for me (I would have liked them to be a little bit bigger), I corrected the button cases instead. The cardigan was ready on time for little baby Rían's Christenning.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Uma coisa for do normal aconteceu no final de Junho...eu ganhei um concurso na minha <a href="http://www.todayfm.com/" target="_blank">rádio favorita</a>, fui passear com o meu marido sem as crianças (pela primeira vez em 5 anos) durante um fim-de-semana e participámos numa das corridas de cavalos mais populares do país! Foi muito entusiasmante...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
O prémio do concurso na rádio incluía uma noite neste hotel maravilhoso e um dia no Festival <a href="http://www.curragh.ie/whats-on/derby-festival/" target="_blank">"Dubay Duty Free Irish Derby"</a>na Curragh, no condado de Kildare. Foi um bocadinho mágico...ainda que eu não seja uma grande fã de corridas de cavalos ou de apostas, adorei o dia, a ver as pessoas passar (era o dia das senhoras e havia conjuntos impresssionantes), as corridas e a comer comida maravilhosa. A minha parte favorita, devo dizer, foi a nossa estadia no hotel...eu adorei o quarto, a comida e o ambiente (o "cozy pub" na traseira do hotel era encantador).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
E tudo isto por adivinhar o ano de uma das canções mais marcantes da minha vida..."Sit down" dos James, a música com a qual acordei definitivamente na Unidade de Cuidados Intensivos (quando tive <a href="http://www.boladeberlin.blogspot.ie/2008/09/happy-birthday-to-me_09.html" target="_blank">o meu acidente de bicicleta</a> aos 13 anos) e vi a enfermeira a dançar ao seu ritmo :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Something out of the ordinary happened at the end of June...I won a competition on <a href="http://www.todayfm.com/" target="_blank">my favourite radio station</a>, went away with my husband without the kids (the first time in 5 years) for the weekend and attended one of the most popular horse races in the country! It was a very exciting time... </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>The prize from that radio competition included one night at this beautiful hotel and a day at the <a href="http://www.curragh.ie/whats-on/derby-festival/" target="_blank">"Dubay Duty Free Irish Derby"</a> Festival in the Curragh, in County Kildare. It was just magic...although I'm not crazy about horse races or betting, I really enjoyed the day, watching the crowds (it was ladies day and there were amazing outfits around), watching the races and eating gorgeous food. My favourite part, I must say, was the night stay at the hotel...I just loved the room, the food and the atmosphere (the cozy pub at the back of the hotel was lovely). </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>And all of this because I correctly guessed the year of one of the most important songs of my life..."Sit down" from James, the song to which I definitely woke up to in the ICU (when I had <a href="http://www.boladeberlin.blogspot.ie/2008/09/happy-birthday-to-me_09.html" target="_blank">my bicycle accident</a>) and watched the nurse dance to it :)</i></div>

No início deste ano, durante os meses em que a nova casa estava a ser remodelada e nós espeavámos e desesperávamos, houve sempre tempo para um bocadinho de tricot. No princípio de Marco fiz umas botinhas, um <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-kina-short-long-sleeved-version" target="_blank">casaquinho de bebé</a> e um <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/berry-baby-hat" target="_blank">gorro</a> para uma amiga...em breve partilho mais alguns projectos que, neste momento, sao secretos.</div>

<em>In the beginning of this year, during the months in which our new house was being renovated and we were waiting and "despairing", there was always time for a little bit of knitting. At the beginning of March I completed a pair of little booties, a </em><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-kina-short-long-sleeved-version" target="_blank"><em>baby cardigan</em></a><em> and</em><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/berry-baby-hat" target="_blank"><em> hat</em></a><em> for a friend...soon I will share some of the projects that are now secret.</em></div>

A Isabel já se sente completamente à vontade na nova casa...tem de novo um quartinho só para si onde nos manda sentar e nos serve chá à mesa (ela adora o seu <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fisher-Price-Laugh-Learn-Say-Please/dp/B001IEYXAA/ref=sr_1_1?s=kids&ie=UTF8&qid=1404251841&sr=1-1&keywords=tea+set+fisher+price" target="_blank">serviço de chá</a>!), onde brinca às escondidas, brinca com os puzzles e jogos e lê os seus livros. Assim vai crescendo...e o quarto com ela também se vai modificando. Dentro de uns meses vamos substituir o muda fraldas que agora serve de estante por uma estante "verdadeira", as barras da cama vão ser retiradas, os cortinados feiros e a decoração vai ser completada. Este é o plano, claro...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<i>Isabel is perfectly comfortable in the new house...she has a bedroom just for herself again where she tell us to sit down at the table where she serve us tea (she loves her <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fisher-Price-Laugh-Learn-Say-Please/dp/B001IEYXAA/ref=sr_1_1?s=kids&ie=UTF8&qid=1404251841&sr=1-1&keywords=tea+set+fisher+price" target="_blank">tea set</a>!), where she plays hide & seek, play with her puzzles and games and read her books. And so she grows...and the room is changing with her. In a few months we will substitute her changing table that is working now as a book/toy shelf for a "real" bookshelf, the bars of her bed will come off, the curtains will be made and the decoration completed. That is the plan, of course...</i></div>

Já estamos mais ou menos de volta ao normal...já estamos na casa nova e livres de quase todas as caixas! E de vez em quando, tiramos umas "férias" de arrumar e limpar e vamos passear, ver coisas novas. Como na semana passada o Festival de Artes de Carlow tinha numa das suas exbições, uma peça da <a href="http://www.joanavasconcelos.com/index.aspx" target="_blank">Joana Vasconcelos,</a> a Valquíria Enxoval, nós "tivemos" que ir lá vê-la! Isto não acontece todos os dias...e nós adorámos e divertimo-nos muito!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i>We are "kind of back" to normal...we are already in the new house and have almost no boxes around! Sometimes, we take a break from tidying up and cleaning and go somewhere to see something new. As the Carlow Arts Festival had an exhibition with a piece from <a href="http://www.joanavasconcelos.com/index.aspx" target="_blank">Joana Vasconcelos</a>, the Valquíria Enxoval, we "had" to go see it! Something like this never happens around here...and we loved it and had a lot of fun on the way!</i></div>

Parte do meu trabalho como trabalhadora comunitária consiste em apoiar o desenvolvimento de um grupo de tricot numa área não muito previlegiada da vila...é um projecto muito gratificante! Um dos modelos mais populares nesse grupo de tricot é o "<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fox-scarf-3" target="_blank">Cachecol da Raposa</a>" e, como não podia deixar de ser, eu também tricotei um...para o meu menino "grande". E aqui está ele a posar para a fotografia com o seu cachecol novo, o meu menino doce, doce e reguila!</div>

<i>Part of my work as a community worker is to support the development of a knitting group in one of the most disadvantaged areas of the town...and it's a very rewarding project! One of the most popular patterns in that knitting group is the "<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fox-scarf-3" target="_blank">Fox Scarf</a>" and, of course I had to knit one...for my "big" boy. And here he is, posing with his new scarf, my sweet, sweet, cheeky boy!</i></div>

A noite das bruxas foi muito divertida este ano...o James adorou as decorções, o artesanato, a comida, o seu traje...ele adorou tudo mesmo! A Isabel estava mais interessada em deitar a mão à maior quantidade de guloseimas possível :) Eu já estou a ver que as épocas festivas vão ser ainda mais divertidas a partir de agora...e mal posso esperar! Espero que tenham tido um dia divertido...<br />
<br />
<i>Halloween was so much fun this year...James was super excited about the decorations, crafts, food, his costume...everything really! Isabel was more interested in reaching as many sweets as possible :) I can see that the festive seasons will be even more fun from now on...I can't wait! I hope you and your had a lovely day... </i></div>

O James revelou recentemente (talvez com alguma ajuda da chuva a cair lá fora) que adora desenhar e colorir. Consegue fazê-lo durante algum tempo todos os dias, sem interrupções, e gosta de descrever e assinar as suas obras primas. Podemos dizer que, juntamente com o brincar com o Lego, desenhar/colorir é a sua actividade favorita :) Eu adoro guardar todos os seus desenhos (alguns já destinados a molduras), pedacinhos deste tempo precioso!</div>

<i>James has recently reveled (maybe with a little help of the rain falling outside) his love for drawing and colouring. He manages to do it for quite some time every day, with no interruptions, and likes to describe what he draws and sign it. We can say that this is one of his favourite activities, just like playing Lego :) I love to keep all his drawings (some already on their way to frames), little pieces of this precious time!</i></div>

Eu tenho andado a usar o meu novo "brinquedo", a kitchen aid, com regularidade. Eu ADORO-O! Não tem sido difícil...afotunadamente, temos tido muito que celebrar no mês que passou, uhhhuuuu :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>So I've been trying to use my new "toy" regularly, my favourite kitchen gadget, the kitchen aid mixer. I LOVE it!! It has not been a difficult task...luckily, we had a lot to celebrate in the past month, yaaaay :) </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Para a festa de anos do James, fiz bolos baseados nos seus doces favoritos: queques de nutella (com gomas dinossauros) e queques de bolachas e creme (com bolachas oreos) <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cupcakes-Primrose-Bakery-Martha-Swift/dp/1856268470/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378852112&sr=1-4&keywords=cupcakes" target="_blank">deste livro</a> e bolo de chocolate e laranja com creme de manteiga - os pequeninos ficaram doidos pelos queques de nutella e dinossauros! Para a festa de anos da Isabel, fiz queques simples de chocolate e baunilha com creme de marshmallows...delicioso. Mas o meu bolo favorito foi o de veludo vermelho que fiz para o nosso aniversário de casamento...tão leve e fofinho, baseado no <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bake-Rachel-Allen/dp/0007259700/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378852183&sr=1-1&keywords=rachel+allen+bake" target="_blank">deste livro</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>For James' birthday party I made cakes based on his favourite treats: nutella (with dinosaur jellys) cupcakes and cookies and cream cupcakes (with oreo cookies) <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cupcakes-Primrose-Bakery-Martha-Swift/dp/1856268470/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378852112&sr=1-4&keywords=cupcakes" target="_blank">from this book</a> and chocolate-orange cake with buttercream icing - the kids went crazy for the nutella dinosaur cupcakes! For Isabel's birthday party I made simple chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with marshmallow icing...yummy. But my favourite cake was the red velvet one I made for our anniversary from this book...so light and moist, based on the one from <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bake-Rachel-Allen/dp/0007259700/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378852183&sr=1-1&keywords=rachel+allen+bake" target="_blank">this book</a>.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ter uma kitchen aid so levou o meu amor por bolos para outro nível...é muito mais fácil e bonito de fazê-los! Eu adoro bolos (sempre adorei) e não sou a única cá em casa :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Having the kitchen aid mixer just brought my love for cakes to another level...It's so much easier and such a pleasure to make them! I love cakes (always did) and am not the only one in the house :)</i></div>

O nosso "bebé" fez 4 anos há uns dias e está tão crescido!...Nesse dia jogámos bowling (foi a primeira vez que o James jogou - adorou e ganhou à mamã e ao daddy!), fomos ao parque dar de comer aos gansos, cantámos os parbéns, comemos bolo de chocolate e abrimos prendas...uns dias mais tarde tivemos uma festinha para o nosso "menino grande" que tanto adoramos :)</div>

O facto é que eu adoro tricotar para bebés...são, normalmente, peças rápidas de fazer e muito gratificantes. Esta peça, o <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pebble-henrys-manly-cobblestone-inspired-baby-vest" target="_blank">Pebble</a> é, na minha opinião, particularmente adorável e ideal para meninos. É já <a href="http://www.boladeberlin.blogspot.ie/2010/11/o-pebble-do-james.html" target="_blank">o meu segundo</a>, desta vez para o bebé de uma amiga. Desta vez usei Malabrigo, cor Tuareg, com botões Cath Kidston e fiquei muito contente com o resultado.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
E agora também tenho um novo livro de tricot preferido na minha vida, um livro muito especial da <a href="http://aervilhacorderosa.com/" target="_blank">Rosa</a>, que muito admiro...chama-se "<a href="http://retrosaria.rosapomar.com/collections/made-in-portugal/products/malhas-portuguesas" target="_blank">Malhas Portuguesas</a>" e é fantástico! Eu já andava a "namorar" este livro há alguns meses e recebi-o como prenda recentemente. Já tenho alguns dos projectos na minha lista de coisas a tricotar, sendo que o meu favorito é o da gola minderica que é inspirado em mantas que me lembro de ver em casa dos meus avós. Adoro a parte da pesquisa do livro, mas também gosto muito dos modelos que a Rosa criou. É óptimo ter um livro sobre tricot em Portugal!</div>

I have already some projects from the book in my to do list, but my favourite is the gola minderica, which is inspired in blankets that I remember seeing in my grandparents house. I love the research part of the book, but I also really like the patterns that Rosa has created. I love having a book about knitting in Portugal! </i></div>

A nossa querida bebé Isabel já tem 9 meses...está tão crescida! Ela sorri muito, adora pessoas (especialmente o mano James), comer (tudo!), saber o que se passa (sempre!), brincar com brinquedos "barulhentos", rebolar, rebolar, rebolar, rebolar...ela é a bebé mais querida e nós temos muita sorte em tê-la nas nossas vidas! </div>

O meu menino está a crescer depressa, depressa demais! Quis partilhar estas fotos do quarto dele para este momento ficar registado e para mais tarde recordar como era o quarto do meu menino "grande" - os desenhos de montros e "aliens" que ele adora fazer no seu quadro, os livros que ele "devora" e as histórias que lhe lemos no seu sofá, os puzzles que faz vezes sem conta, os animais que ele conta nos cortinados, as recordações nas paredes...este são os meus cantinhos favoritos do quarto do meu menino "grande"! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>My little boy is growing up really fast, too fast! I wanted to share these photos of his room so this moment could be recorded and remember later on how his room was when he was a "big" boy - the drawings of monsters and aliens that he loves to make on his black board, the books he "devours" and the stories we read him on his couch, the puzzles that he makes time and time again, the animals that he counts in the curtains, the memories on the walls...these are my favourite corners of my "big" boy's room!</i></div>

Ontem encontrei algum tempo para fazer uns bolinhos...uma colega tinha-me pedido para fazer algo português para um evento a nível do trabalho e decidi fazer os <a href="http://saidosdaconcha.blogspot.ie/2011/06/queques-portuguesa-muffins-portuguese.html" target="_blank">Queques da Concha</a>! São muito simples, rápidos e saborosos. Consegui fazer 33, 3 dos quais em miniatura em caixinhas de dinossauros a pedido de um menino muito especial...escusado será dizer que só 22 chegaram ao evento (mais do que suficiente, não se preocupem). Eu adoro fazer bolos (e muitas outras coisas) para os meus queridos e qualquer coisa serve de desculpa para fazê-lo!</div>

<i>I found some time to bake something yesterday...I was asked by a colleague to make something Portuguese for an event at work so I decided to make "<a href="http://saidosdaconcha.blogspot.ie/2011/06/queques-portuguesa-muffins-portuguese.html" target="_blank">Concha's Queques (Portuguese Muffins)</a>"! They were simple, quick and very tasty. I manage to make 33, 3 of which were miniature ones in little dinosaur cases for a very special little boy...it wasn't a surprise that only 22 of them made the event (still plenty, don't worry). I love baking (and making many other things) for my loved ones and I'll take any excuse to do it!</i></div>
