the study/studio looks nothing like this
my inner elf is beginning to stir
and she is making a right old mess : )

this morning, a moist, red chocolate-beetroot cake 
for the olive pickers - one tree down, two to go.

Dear Xenia,
your photos... *sigh*... simply wonderful. Love the calm of it...
is it an omega? And, I even love when inner elf starts to stir...

your chocolate-beetroot cake looks delicious! Thank you for the recipe.

AR > thank you, always such kind words, dear Ariane, it is an omega, but i'm not sure about this elf always making a mess just before christmas :)

A > it was delicious, not sweet, beautiful texture + so easy to make.
