Banana Cake


I have recently discovered that my email forwarding system wasn’t working properly and for the past weeks I haven’t been receiving anyone’s contact. đŚ
If you have sent me an email and I had not replied, IÂ apologize. I’m not ignoring you, just the opposite! Every email I receive, is an excuse to become even happier (and do a silly dance). \o/ ~o~ \o/
The normal response time is really quick (one day delay, tops, if I get caught on a difficult cake).
I hope to have fixed this problem and, just to make sure, I’m also leaving my gmail (go2cakes@gmail.com) contact in the info section, on the right.
Again, I’m sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you write to me again anytime soon. I’d love to chat, share ideas (maybe give you some tips on the recipes đ ) and make a cake for you!

*a bit upset with the email system*
*hoping to have fixed everything*
I’ve being planning to make this post for a while, but (happily) work is not giving any time off! *Uff* Nevertheless, time has finally come!
I was completaly thrilled to know that I was nominated for a new blogs/small blogs Award. The Liebster Award!
The Liebster Award is an online award only, and is here to make new small blogs biggerby crossing its audience with other blogsâ. It is also very practical, because one is awarded only by being simply nominated to it! You are nominated to the Liebster if a blog who has also been nominated thinks you are a good blog to follow and should have your word spread all over.
Since itâs online, you can imagine its rules have changed through time, but they remain basically these:
If you receive a Liebster Award (and choose to accept it â which is only going to make your blog some good) you should:
1. Make a celebratory post (such as this you are reading) with the Liebster bagde and these rules on it
2. On this post thank and link the lovely blog who nominated you and recommend it because you probably think they are worth it! (why would you ever not do that?!). Also follow the blog (but you probably already do)
3. Answer the questions your nominator listed on your nomination post
4. Choose 5 or 11 or 20 other new blogs (up to ~300 followers) to nominate for the Liebster and let them know about it by commenting one of their posts
5. Propose them a list of 11 questions they should answer on their response celebratory post
Also, why not checking out the other nominated blogs? you you probably like them too! Itâs a nice way to keep discovering new blogs and bloggers who really deserve our attention â¤
I feel like the most blessed person right now because I was nominated by two sweethearts. First I was nominated by a fierce, brave and awesome *VIKING*, LaĂs, from The Diabetic Viking. Later, the dearest naammekyarakhahai also named me. Both of their blogs are great in totally different areas, while my unstoppable viking friend talks more about her experiences on Scandinavian lands, my talented positive friend shows her art and crafts works (nail art, quilling earings…)
I’m going to anwer both of their questions here =)
1. If you could give one piece of advice to other new bloggers, what would it be?
Don’t give up! It might be a bit frustrating on the begining, but as long as you don’t give up, everything will work out.
2. Why does having a blog make a difference for you?
I am trying to display my work and a blog is a great venue to do so.
3. What kind of blogs do you visit the most?
Mostly food blogs, but also crafts and motivational.
4. Which do you believe is your best post so far?
5. Should you own birthday cake be store bought or made by yourself?

6. If you could recommend one single book right now, what would it be?
Probably Cooking for Geeks, which I am currently reading and it is really interesting!
7. If you could write a book, what would its title be?
I think I would name it Not about me.
8. How much of the food you eat is NOT store-bought?
I homemake most of the meals… I have to buy the ingredients, of course, but I don’t buy frozen food or pre-made food.
9. Do you ever try to be less harmful to the environment?
Yes! I am always trying to repurpose things! =)
10. Does food you have with someone you love taste better than food you love had alone?
For sure! Even things that I don’t usually like.
