Love this post ❤️ love quiche ❤️ love that you were so positive about the "keep you from starving" pastry! 😂😂😂 Go you!

It's been months since this post, have you retried and got your husband's approval? 😅

I actually haven't! And now it's the height of dinner again and not the best time to try...

I love the "presentness" of your writing. Is that a word? I feel like this was a letter sent just to me. Thank you, Rahma, for sharing. xo

:) This is what writing really is : the life creative process. I loved the way you connect cooking and writing, it resonates with my own approach : step into what attracts and scares you, give it a try, fail, do, redo, enjoy the process, be a baby! Thanks for this refreshing post, i love when spontaneity is tangible. And thanks for "zhuzh" cause I did not know this word and wow I'm in love with its meaning and its sound (a frenchie vocalist who's always looking for new sounds to explore). Enjoy your words and meals!

I loved reading this Rahma! I could feel the panic trying to do something for you when someone else needs you as I have my own 3 year old at home. Thanks for sharing.

Already loved this post by the subtitle! I have almost never even attempted to make my own pastry so we’ll done for overcome the fear of failure and eating it anyway (the pastry, I mean)

I seem to remember my first post on my old Cavemum blog was called ‘Cooking at the Cave: a recipe for disaster’...feeling you and your delightful (and at times frustrating) home life! Blessings to you and your babes x oh and apparently marble is the thing for pastry, or A/C?
