Wear A Vest To A Wedding

Crème, café & petites graines

Today is the deadline little contest organized by Flo Bretzel . Florence, I do not really need you because ever since we met 3 years ago on the blogosphere, many exchanges of revenue, to address and small gourmet gifts took place. Last year

Flo bought a charming little studio in the heart of Munich and turned in bed and breakfast the image of his universe "Coffee & Cream Pretzel" . So to encourage bloggers to visit him in Munich, it creates a competition with the key to staying in his studio offered.

The theme of the game is the invention of a recipe based on cream of coffee and a third ingredient typically German Pretzel or other . Having the honor to serve on the jury and finding the game's theme very nice I had to move to a Flo-off recipe contest ...

My typical ingredient, if not the Pretzel, these are small seeds dried that Germans love to stick to the crust of all their breads, including Pretzel! The sesame, poppy the the sunflower, squash the the flax short, everything goes quickly and I must be adapted to become the little crunchy in my kitchen ... Evidence:
