When a recipe calls for two fresh red Thai chilis,

When a recipe calls for two fresh red Thai chilis, but the grocery store only sells them in packs of 12 or more. . .
🌶️.
You can deal with the leftovers one of two ways: freeze them or dry them. Both methods are dead easy. To freeze, place them in a zipper lock bag, label & date, and pop into the freezer.
To dry, spread the chilis out on a tray and let dehydrate in a dry room (I use my dining room) for several days. They may take up to a week to dry completely. Then transfer to a jar and store with your spices.
🌶️.
I prefer the dried method, as you can see from this photo. Mostly because I tend to lose things on my freezer 😅 The dried chilis last longer and can be used in a variety of ways. They can be broken up into coarse chili flakes, ground into a fiery chili powder, soaked for use in curry pastes and sauces. They can used in a variety of cuisines, not just in Thai food. And they look SO PRETTY on your spice shelf!

My oldest son has requested the same Chocolate Ras

My oldest son has requested the same Chocolate Raspberry cake on his birthday almost every year of his life, and this, his 20th birthday, is no exception.
🎂.
Although I am no pastry chef, and lack the patience required for supreme cake decorating, (and also clearly can't centre a cake on a platter! 😅) I still love to bake. I make Ruben's birthday cake myself, with fudgy chocolate cake layers (recipe from the @rebarmodernfood cookbook), sandwiched with my homemade raspberry jam, covered with whipped chocolate ganache and fresh raspberries.
❤️.
It's a labour of love for my dear boy @rubendominelli , who has grown from an adorable and talkative toddler, to a young man who is whip-smart, kind, thoughtful, hilarious, and a multi-talented musician. Swipe right to see some of my favourite photos of him, including several of him with his favourite instrument in hand. AND check my stories for the CUTEST toddler photo ever!
😍
The other parents always told me that it would go quickly; what they didn't tell me is what a joy it would be to watch your child blossom into adulthood, to become their friend as well as their parent, while still feeling every inch the mama bear.
🐻.
Happiest of birthdays, Ruben! I cannot believe you are twenty years old already, but I know what a privilege it has been to be your mom.
❤️
