Chocolate Mousse || Mousse au chocolat

Salam everyone :)

As you can read in the title, I am going to talk about chocolate. Well, it's actually the Chocolate Mousse or the Mousse au chocolat recipe. I did this dessert yesterday and it was delicious. It's very easy and quick to make so it's the perfect dessert to make when you're in a hurry or you're just tired/lazy.

Here's the recipe for 4 persons with the pictures I took while cooking :)

Ingredients:

4 eggs
1 chocolat bar (100 g)
10 small strawberries
1 pack of plain cookies
1/2 tablespoon butter
a small cup of coffee
a small cup of water.
salt and sugar


Instructions:

 

1. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks start to form.

2. In a bowl set over a pot of hot water, melt the chocolate and butter.



3. Transfer to a large bowl the chocolat and add the egg yolks and beat  the addition of each.


4. In a pan add the strawberries, the small cup of water and a tablespoon of sugar. Let cook until the strawberries become soft.

 
5. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture until no white speaks appear.


6. Now fill the cups with a spoon or more of strawberries each.

7. For each cup, soak two or more biscuits in the the cup of coffee and add it on top of the strawberries.





8. Finally, add the chocolate mousse above the biscuits for each cup. Aaand we're done!

9. Make sure to refrigerate until well chilled.

A day with me || Why Ramadan is my favorite month


Ramadhan Kareem to all my brothers and sisters from all around the world!

It's already day 6! Can you believe it? I hope you're having an amazing Ramadhan with your family and your loved ones. Inshallah we benefit from this blessed month and from the goals we set to ourselves for this Holy month. Don't give up guys, we still have 24 days to do our best inshallah!!

I love Ramadhan so much. The Ramadhan spirit is so unique and heartwarming, it's my favorite part of the year. Especially when it happens to be during my summer holidays haha.

During the first week of Ramadhan I tried to capture my favorite moments of the daily life during Ramadhan.

Of course the  Number One moment is IFTAR TIIIME!!!


They say "show me your Ramadhan table and I tell you where you come from". Well, actually I just made this quote, BUT I think it's totally true. I love Iftar not only because it's the moment we break our fast, but mostly because everyone is around the table. Family is one of the things Ramadhan is about.

This is my favorite piece of the table! This literally is the Queen of the food categorie of Ramadhan for me.
We call this Brik, and it's very similar to samoussa.


TARAWEEH TIIIME (ie PRAYER TIIIME)
(Oh between Iftar and Taraweeh there's dishes time but it's the boring part you know)

Seeing the mosque full and trying to make a place where you can pray alongside the sisters is the best feeling ever! I also love seeing brothers and sisters on their way to the mosque for taraweeh with their Qamis and Abaya swag. In a western country it's like the BEST!!

That's my mama's abaya by the way. I wear this to go to pray Taraweeh.


And finally two of the most important and symbolic part of Ramadhan for me:

Fajr prayer and Quran reading

 

I try my best inshallah to read the Quran during the day or after the Fajr prayer even if I don't completely understand it, but you know Ramadhan is all about trying to do our best to improve our faith and to move on to new better habits.


Take care everyone and May Allah help with this blessed month <3 br="">

Summer is here, Ramadan is near (see what I just did?) and in a week I'm in vacations!!
Can it get even better? I'm so excited for summer and for my blogging projects and internet stuff. 
Inshallah I will have enough time to create better content during my vacations. 
Also I'm going in a trip with my family and of course I will blog about it and everything!!

For today's post I wanted to show you the beautiful pictures I took when I went to this magical park

#OOTD || geometric patterns

Hey guuuys!
I am so happy about today's post, because I'm going to show you my new favorite shirt EVERRR and favorite sandals EVERR. For me, this outfit is one of my tumblr outfits goals, and I feel so accomplished right now. Don't judge me. If you have already seen my style inspiration #1, you will know that I was very inspired lately by a certain fashion style. If I want to describe this fashion style, I would say it is mostly black and white and there's sometimes some stripes, jeans and it's super comfortable and loose, simple and modest. I couldn't stop posting these inspired outfit pictures in my tumblr. In one word : I'M OBSESSED. Without further ado, here are the pictures of my outfit.

Rocking the outfit with a pair of jeans:


The outfit with cigarette pants:
 

 These sandals make me emotional...



I really hope you enjoyed this post :) Tell me which pants goes best with the outfit.
Also, I made a new Instagram account @Dreamy_naa, if you'd like to check it out.
Okay :) Til' next time <3 br="">

New Favorites || Female Energy

I was thinking about what kind of post I could do to introduce you to my new favorite sound, and I thought that I had to write an entire post about it. This sound is called Female Energy by Willow Smith. Her voice is so refreshing, the melody  is so calming and the lyrics just amazing. I'm not used to listen to this kind of songs, but I was looking for something new that stands out and I found this.


" Whatever, whatever I guess whatever
I don't care, get dressed whatever
I don't feel like talking, whatever"


Guys just check it out already and tell me what you think  :)

Have a lovely week end everyone!!
Take care xoxo

Style inspirations #1

Salam guys! How are you? It's been sooo long since my last post, but I've been so busy with my internship and I was a bit overwhelmed by a few things like personal change and life decisions.
Today I wanted to post about fashion and a new style that I started to like lately. I was scrolling through Tumblr and I found several looks that I was really inspired by. Personally I don't have a specific fashion style, but I like to try different styles every now and then.
(Follow me on Tumblr guys!!)
I really loved these looks, because of their simplicity. They look really comfortable and I'm in love with the colors, even if it's mostly black and white.
