Una buena noticia y una triste despedida / A good news and a sad goodbye

(English version below)

Volví de vacaciones y que lindas!!! me creen si les digo que todavía no termine de trabajar en todas las fotos que saque en Japon? bueno creanlo porque así es... pueden ver algunas fotos acá pero ya haré algo lindo para el blog. Hoy quería hablar de algo mas importante... hace tiempo que vengo diciendo que será tiempo de cambios y ... que cambios!! La excelente novedad que tengo que contarles y una que me llena de expectativas es que con A. nos mudamos a Londres! La otra cara de todo esto es que me da mucha pena dejar este país que me lleno de tantas cosas lindas y que esta lleno de gente muy querida. Para mi querida Suiza esta receta tan especial. 

Mas de una persona me pidio la receta de mis alfajores de maizena y desde que nació Dulce Pampa siempre fueron los alfajores los que mas se destacaron, los mas pedidos y con los que mas cumplidos me gané. Una amiga me pidió la receta y le salieron riquísimos asique esta receta NO FALLA. El secreto es... no escatimar con el dulce de leche, animense y pongan una buena cucharada. La masa lo va a absorber y no queda empalagoso, si no se animan puede que queden secos y la magia desaparece.

Espero que disfruten de mi regalo a ¨La Suisse¨ un pais al que cuesta encontrarle la vuelta pero que una vez que le ves la cara no se puede sacarle la mirada de encima. Suiza con sus hermosos viñedos, lagos y montañas. Suiza con sus edificios en punta y sus interminables calles en desnivel. Suiza blanca y dulce. Voy a extrañarte!

English version 

I am back from holidays and such a wonderful holidays they were! but would you believe me if I tell you that I didn't have time to work on all my photos yet? well.. believe it because I didn't.... you can see some photos here but I will do a nice post on it later on. Today I wanted to tell you something very important for me... I have been telling you that this is a year of changes for me but I couldn't tell you more because nothing was for sure, now it is. The very good news is that we are moving to London!! I am so excited about it. I am full of expectations and day-dreaming all the time, thinking how it will be to be in a city so ... London... There is anyways some kind of sadness behind all this... I am deep in love with Switzerland and it will be difficult to leave it behind... I think that once you really discover this country it is hard to just turn around and leave... For my dear Switzerland this special recipe. 

From the moment Dulce Pampa was born, the ¨alfajores¨ were always the star of the menu. These delicious sweet south-american (and I will dear say argentinian) treats are sweet, soft and simply perfect. The first time I made them was indeed because I missed them so much that if I wanted to have them I would have to make them my-self; Switzerland I love you but you are missing something without the alfajores de maizena (cornstarch alfajores)... Two cookies and dulce de leche (I guess that the translation in english would be ¨milk jam¨) so simple so good. Just one secret, be generous with the dulce de leche otherwise it will be too dry and the magic is gone.

I hope you enjoy my gift to Switzerland, a country difficult to figure out but the once you really see it you cannot look away. Switzerland with its beautiful vineyards, lakes and mountains. Switzerland with its tip end buildings and its endless steep streets. Switzerland white and sweet. I will miss you!
