Easter Sunday morning was a lazy morning. Got up pretty late. No sense to make too complicated breakfast. Looked thru in the refrigerator and found basic stable in the house which is milk, eggs and bacon. Let's have blueberry smoothie, mini quiche Lorraine and homemade Rye bread with homemade peach jam. Simple and healthy.
上周复活节星期天的早上是个懒散的早上，起得很晚，不想再跑出去吃早餐，也没必要做复杂的早餐。打开冰箱巡视了一圈，家里有基本的原料，牛奶，鸡蛋和咸肉。还有我自己做的黑麦面包，就用它们来做一顿简单又健康的早餐吧。

Dessert: Blueberry upside down cake
Easter also means Spring is here. We like some fruity desert this time. Then, I had an idea to try a blueberry upside down cake. I made up the recipe by myself. It turned out perfect. We love it so much.
Recipe:
1 cup frozen blueberry (fresh berry is fine)
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs seperated
3 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
The procedures are quiet simple. See picture below.
A: Mix dry ingredients together. Cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Add egg yolks, one at a time. Add flour mixtures along with milk.
B: Use another bowl to beat the egg whites until it forms stiff peak. Mix egg white to the batter carefully.
C: Butter a cake pan and line a parchment paper at the bottom. Sprinkle brown sugar.
D: Sprinkle blueberry on the bottom of the cake pan
E: Pour cake batter on top of the berries. Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for ~20 minutes or until a toothpick came out clean.
甜点：蓝莓翻转蛋糕
复活节也有春天来临的意义。甜点最好也带一点水果的气息，我想出来个主意，试试蓝莓翻转蛋糕。配方是我自己“捏造”出来的，蛋糕烤好非常好，我们真是好喜欢。
配方如下：
1 杯冰冻蓝莓（新鲜的也好）
2大勺红糖
1杯面粉
2小勺发粉
半杯奶油
半杯白糖
3只鸡蛋（蛋黄和蛋白分开）
3大勺牛奶
1小勺香草香精
做法看下图：
A: 取一只小盆将面粉和发粉混合均匀。混合器中打发奶油，糖和香草香精。一只一只地加蛋黄，再加入面粉混合物和牛奶。
B: 另取一只盆打发蛋白。把蛋白小心混合入蛋糕面糊中。
C: 蛋糕烤盘抹上奶油，放好烤盘纸。撒上红糖。
D: 撒上蓝莓
E: 最后倒入蛋糕面糊。放入350度的烤箱烤20分钟左右，或者直到牙签插入出来没有面糊。
This is the final product. Someone can't wait for me to take the pictures.
