Breton biscuit

Phew. We narrowly escaped complete containment. However, we hope that the Swiss population takes responsibility and stays at home as much as possible so that this pandemic subsides and that we can go on with our life :).

We work my husband and I 100% with our 3 year old daughter at home. Not that easy. Have you ever hear of e-sitters? It is my mother who calls my daughter on the tablet and manages to babysit her for 45 minutes 🤣🤣🤣.

In the meantime, to relax and free my head, I cook. We eat like in a 4 star restaurant and my daughter enjoys homemade cookies. Everything that occupies her is welcome!

Here are some delicious Breton biscuit!
