Happy 6 months old to this darling boy!

Yup, it's quite unbelievable that it's been half a year since this baby came into the world. Every day, I count my blessings for having him in my life and how he has made everything better and happier for all of us.

He has started eating apple, potato and carrot purée and is curious about anything that goes into his mouth. He drools all the time and likes to chomp on everything he sees, including my shirt, his fingers, toys and cutlery.

He sleeps besides me and wakes up a few times every night, looking for Mama and needing his milk before he dozes off again. After over four months, he finally learnt how to side latch which makes my nights easier and I love the way we sleep so close to each other.

Many people mistake him for a girl because of his thick mop of hair and I've already cut it thrice because it gets long so fast. He also has cute dimples on his round and chubby face which makes me wanna kiss him a thousand times a day.

He is starting to experience separation anxiety and at times only wants Mama and no one else to carry him. It's funny how a glimpse of me or just the sound of my voice can trigger a big reaction in him, and while this phase of being needed 24/7 is tiring, I cherish it so, so much.

A couple of nights ago, the big girl came up to me and said "Thank you for giving birth to Ansel and bringing him into our lives", the sister said "He is the cutest baby in the world" while the brother said "We are so lucky to have a boy cos' I have a Didi now." Awww. It's plain to see how much they adore this baby and how deeply he is loved each day.

Thank you for brightening up our days with your contagious smile and hearty laughter. Thank you for being you. We love you so, so much, dear Ansel! ❤

【Ingredients】7in(18cm)×3in(8cm)loaf pan
●Butter cake
4.2oz Unsalted butter  
3.5oz Granulated sugar 
3.5oz Whole egg
4.2oz Cake flour 
1tsp Baking powder 

2oz Oranges marmalade(or Orange peel)
1 tbsp Grand marnier　
●Syrup
1 and a half tbsp Water  1 tbsp Granulated sugar　
1 tbsp Grand marnier

【Directions】
●Make Amanatsu oranges marmalade
https://studio.youtube.com/video/cYOxibteWJc/edit

●Make Butter cake
Preparation: Beat the egg well.
Line the cake pan with parchment paper.
Preheat the oven to 356 °F/180℃.
Bring the eggs and butter to room temperature.

①Chop marmalade.
mix marmalade and grand marnier,set aside.
②Water and sugar together. (microwave 600 W 30 sec.) Mix it well.　Add grand marnier,set aside.
③Cream the butter until smooth. Add granulated sugar and Mix well.
Mix it with a whisk until white and fluffy (for 5 mins).
Until light and fluffy.
④Add the egg to the butter in 5-6 parts.
Mix thoroughly after each addition until creamy.
***Please warm the egg in hot water until room temperature if it's cold.
⑤Add the sifted flour and baking powder.
Fold it until powderiness disappears and gets glossy a little.
⑥Add marmalade and fold.
⑦Pour the batter into a paper-lined cake tin,(Spray lightly with water.) and bake at 356 °F/180℃ for about 38 minutes.
*Note: I spread the middle part thinner and the edges thicker.
When it has been in the oven for 10 minutes, make a vertical slit down the middle.
Insert a bamboo skewer and when it comes out clean, it's done.
⑧Drop the pan lightly to prevent the cake from shrinking.
Remove the cake from the pan while it's warm.
Brush butter cake  with syrup.
Seal it with plastic wrap.(This will make the cake moist.)
Let it sit for 5 hours or more at room temperature. Done!

*Pound cakes taste delicious after 2-3 days.
*Please bring the eggs to room temperature before using them If they are still cold, they will make the butter cold, and make the mixture separate easily.
(The reason why eggs and butter should be room temperature.
"It's easier to mix ingredients when everything's at the same temperature.")

【材料】18cm×8cm×H6cm パウンド型　1台分
●Butter cake
無塩バター 120g
グラニュー糖  100g
全卵  100g
薄力粉  120g
ベーキングパウダー  3g  

オレンジマーマレード(or オレンジピール)  60g
グランマルニエ 大さじ 1
●Syrup
水 大さじ1杯半
グラニュー糖 大さじ 1
グランマルニエ　　大さじ1

【作り方】
●マーマレード作り方動画こちら
https://studio.youtube.com/video/cYOxibteWJc/edit
または、製菓材料のオレンジピールをお使いください。

●バターケーキを作る
準備:
卵とバターは必ず室温にする。
マーマレードは刻んでおく。
卵は溶いて、100g量る。
型にクッキングシートを敷いておく。
オーブンは180度に予熱する。

①マーマレードは刻んでおく。
マーマレードにグランマルニエを加えて混ぜておく。
②水と砂糖を合わせ、電子レンジ 600W 30秒加熱後、混ぜて砂糖が溶けたら、グランマルニエを加えて置いておく。
③バターに砂糖を加えてゴムベラでなじませたら、泡立て器に持ち替えて白っぽくふんわりするまで5分位混ぜる。
***腕が疲れるくらいしっかりと泡立てるようなつもりでまぜてください。ハンドミキサーがあるかたは使ってください。
④溶いた卵を5~6回に分けて加えその都度しっかりと混ぜる。
***卵が冷たい場合は、溶き卵をボウルに入れボウルの底を軽くぬるめのお湯につけ、室温に戻します、温めすぎないように気を付けます。バターと卵が同じくらいの温度だと綺麗に混ざります。⑤薄力粉とベーキングパウダーをふるい入れ
粉っぽさがなくなり、少し艶が出てくるまでよく混ぜる
⑥マーマレードを加えて混ぜる。
⑦型紙を敷いた型に生地を入れ、霧吹きでかるく水を吹きかけ、180℃のオーブンで約38分焼く。*注: 真ん中を薄く、端を厚くするように生地をならす。
10分焼いたところで、濡らしたナイフで真ん中に縦に切り込みを入れると焼き上がりが綺麗に割れますが、オーブンの温度が下がるので
急いで出来ないようなら、やらなくてもok
焼き上がりの目安はしっかりと焼けてそこから少し沈んだくらいの生地の高さになれば大丈夫です。
型をもって揺らした時に中央が揺れるようだとまだ完全に中まで火が入っていません。
割れたところも焼き色がつくくらいまで焼きます。
⑧焼き上がったら焼き縮みを防ぐために20cm高さから型ごと落とす。
温かいうちにケーキを取り出し、刷毛でシロップを打つ。
粗熱が取れたらラップするかビニール袋に入れてそのまま室温で5時間以上置いておく。(これでケーキがしっとりします）

*卵は室温に戻すのを忘れずに。冷えたまま使うと、バターが冷えて分離しやすくなります。
*粗熱をとり、ラップに包んでおくとしっとりします。パウンドケーキは2〜3日後がおいしいです。
*洋酒が苦手なかたはオレンジの果汁などを煮詰めて使ってもok
シロップを打つことで生地はさらにしっとりします。
*グランマルニエはオレンジの香りのリキュールです。
加えることでよりオレンジの風味が増して生地に深みが出ます。
お菓子は加えた材料分の味わいになります。
ぜひ一度は洋酒を使ったバターケーキも作ってもらえたら、
バターケーキの虜になると思います。

************************
保存方法
●焼いた当日は粗熱が取れたらラップにくるむかビニール袋に入れる。
少し経つと水分がたまるので、ラップやビニール袋を取り変えるなどすると良いです。翌日にカットします。
(完全にそのまま冷ますよりもこの方がしっとりします)
●夏場は冷蔵庫の野菜室で4日ほど保存可能、それ以上は冷凍しましょう。
ただし冷えるとバター生地なので生地がしまって固くなるため、食べる時は室温に戻して食べます。
●冬の時期は暖房のない部屋で4－5日は美味しく食べることが出来ます。
●混ぜ込む具材、水分の多いものに変えたりした場合は日持ちはしませんのでご注意ください。また手作りのお菓子は保存剤や防腐剤などが入らないので市販の物とは違います。その点も十分にご留意ください。
●プレゼントで誰かに送りたいときは、宅急便はクール(冷蔵)便で。
夏も冬もこの方が安心して送ることが出来ます。
●ラッピングは翌日に食べるならOPP袋に入れて。
また、脱酸素剤をガス袋の中に入れシーラーで留めれば、酸化を防いでくれるのでより美味しさをキープ出来ます。

Tile can be one of the most difficult selections of the job simply due to the sheer number of options you have; sometimes too many options gives you that 'deer in headlights' kinda feel where you can't move, can't decide. That is precisely where a good supplier comes in, and that is exactly why I work with Garden State Tile. These guys sell and distribute massive amounts of tile, and the folks that work in their showrooms not only know their product inside and out, but are designers themselves, so utilize their design skills and product knowledge to your benefit...and as you'll see here, the more you work with the same person, the easier it gets!

Beef Tartare by Jimmy's Table

If you know me, you know I love my beef tartare. It's something about raw beef that gets me excited, and whenever I see this on a menu, I always order it. This is one of my favorite dishes to eat when dining out. Making this dish is much easier than it looks. My version is a bit elevated with more ingredients to give it more layers. I hope you like it!

Ingredients 食材:
10-16 ounces of raw beef tenderloin or sirloin (沙朗)
2 tablespoons of finely minced shallots (生紅蔥頭)
3 tablespoons of fried shallots (炸紅蔥頭)
1 tablespoon of capers (酸豆)
2 tablespoons of Whole grain mustard (顆粒芥末醬)
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard (傳統芥末醬)
1 tablespoon of Horseradish (optional) (西洋山葵)
2 tablespoons of Sriracha chili sauce (是拉差香甜辣椒醬)
2 tablespoons of Balsamic vinegar (巴薩米克醋)
2 tablespoons of Extra virgin olive oil (橄欖油)
Black pepper - for taste (黑胡椒)
Salt - for taste (鹽)

Finishing Ingredients 撒料調味:
Arugula (芝麻葉)
Balsamic vinegar (巴薩米克醋)
Extra virgin olive oil (橄欖油)
Parmesan cheese (帕瑪森起司)
Crackers (saltines or wheat crisps) or toasted french bread slices (薄脆餅乾or法國吐司)
Raw egg (yoke only) (生蛋黃)

STEP 1
Prepare the beef for cutting. If the beef is already frozen, then let it defrost a little. If the beef is already defrosted, put the beef in the freezer for 15-20 minutes so that the meat freezes a little and is hard to easily slice. If the beef is too soft (aka defrosted all the way), then it will be really hard to cut the beef into fine slices, strips and cubes. By the time you finish making the dish, the beef will be perfectly cold to eat.
步驟 1
準備牛肉，若是冷凍的稍微解凍一些些，若已解凍則放入冷凍15-20分鐘。解凍的生牛肉較難切成丁狀。不用擔心冷凍的牛肉，當你做完這道菜時，肉也達到可以食用的完美解凍狀態了。

STEP 2
Cut beef slices about 1-2 mm thick. Then take the slices and cut them into 1-2 mm strips. Lastly, turn the beef around and cut the strips into small beef cubes/pieces. Put beef into a large mixing bowl.
步驟 2
將牛肉切1-2公分厚，接著再切成1-2公分的條狀，最後將條狀牛肉切成小丁狀，放入大的攪拌碗中。

STEP 3
In the bowl, add in 2 tablespoons of whole grain mustard, 2 tablespoons of dijon mustard, 1 tablespoons of horseradish, 3 tablespoons finely minced shallots, 3 tablespoons of fried shallots.
步驟 3
接著開始加入調味至碗中：2湯匙顆粒芥末醬、2湯匙傳統芥末醬、1湯匙西洋山葵、3湯匙生紅蔥頭、3湯匙炸紅蔥頭。

STEP 4
Add in 2 tablespoons of Extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons of Balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha chili sauce and 1 tablespoon of capers. Add 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt and black pepper. Finally mix everything together evenly.
步驟 4
再加入兩湯匙初榨橄欖油、2湯匙巴薩米克、2湯匙是拉差甜辣醬、1湯匙酸豆。1/2茶匙海鹽及黑胡椒。接著將所有的調味跟牛肉混合均勻。

STEP 5
For plating, start with a bowl of arugula leaves. Add in balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Grind a bit of black pepper for taste.
步驟 5
在碗中放入生芝麻葉，加入巴薩米克醋醬、橄欖油、磨一點點黑胡椒，接著簡單混合。

STEP 6
Drain and lay arugula salad onto plate. Use a metal ring (optional) and lay on top of the salad. Fill in the ring with beef tartare until it is full. Press down on the top to flatten the top. Remove metal ring.
步驟 6
將芝麻葉瀝乾，擺放在盤子中間，用金屬的圓形模型放在盤子中間、生菜上面，將預攪拌好的牛肉填滿模型，接著將模型取掉。

STEP 7
Carefully crack an egg and separate the egg white and egg yoke. Carefully place the egg yoke on top of the beef tartare.
步驟 7
小心地將蛋白及蛋黃分離，將蛋黃放上牛肉塔的上方。

STEP 8
Shred some parmesan cheese on top. Grind a bit of black pepper for taste and plating. Place a spoonful of whole grain mustard on the plate and add a few crackers to the side.
步驟 8
磨一些帕瑪森起司、黑胡椒在整道菜的上面，再放一匙的顆粒芥末醬在旁當佐醬、放上薄脆餅乾或法國吐司當搭配，這道菜就完成了。
