Lemon Soufle Pudding

What follows is lemony awesomeness. Recipe found HERE.

Topped with espumilla (beaten egg whites with sugar, which I haven't had since elementary school... hell yes, uncooked! screw the risk of salmonella, totally worth it!):


lemon pudding on the bottom, tangy spongy cake on top

noms!

I'm tired of the cold. So today I'm gonna pretend it's Spring, here's some plantage!

They need prettier pots... but they're still alive!

Walking around Sculpture Park:





With all the snow melting and all the -real- rain we've been having, Snoqualmie Falls have swollen to I think about 10 times their normal flow!


This was really crazy. We stayed on the top deck and the water came up so high I was struggling to keep my eyes open!



We all ended up pretty wet, you can see my hair is nearly soaked...

Back home! and to welcome us, snow!


Look ma! they're kissing!

But snow stops being cute when you have to cut it with a spatula...

Half of it had melted by the time we got back, so we didn't get the worst of it. Well, it's gone now, hopefully for good this year!
