She's a Lady

Introducing Lady, the beautiful colli/golden retreiever x that we are fostering since a few days ago.
Lady was wandering the streets of Blanchardstown when she was taken to the pound. A family looking for a new dog took her home the night before she was going to be put down and realised the following week she was pregnant when they took her to the vet.
She had the puppies but unfortunately the family couldn't keep her so had to let her go.
We will be fostering her until she finds a new home so if you know of anybody looking for a dog, she is very obedient, she loves company and would be great with old people and kids.

Panckake Tuesday - Martes de Carnaval

Y es que ya sabéis que aquí el Carnaval no se celebra desgraciadamente, lo que si celebran es el 'Martes del crepe'... Hoy me he enterado de que los británicos e irlandeses comen esto el martes de Carnaval porque es el día previo a la cuaresma y los crepes están hechos de alimentos que no estaban permitidos durante ese periodo (huevos y mantequilla).
Cada año he hecho los crepes con una receta española (que supongo que será francesa) y no me han salido como los comen aquí, así que este ano me he decidido por una receta británica y la verdad es que salieron buenísimos, aquí va la receta para quien quiera probar:
Mezclar:
180 gr de harina
200 ml de leche (yo he usado soja)
75 ml de agua
2 huevos
30 gr de mantequilla
Un poco de sal
1 cucharada (de café) de azúcar

... Et voila
