How are you amazing and dear people of Read.cash? My best wishes to all of you in the new year. May 2022 be a prosperous, joyful, abundant, and healthy year for all.

It's been a few days since I last wrote here and I haven't been reading your articles, but I needed a little break to recharge my batteries and start the new year.

So I hope you all have received the new year well and have started 2022 on the right foot. I for one received it at home with my family. For New Year's Eve dinner, I baked a leg of lamb that was delicious. And my husband made some potatoes in the last gadget we bought for our house at Christmas, an air fryer. Where he also dried the tomatoes that we used in the salad. Which by the way are delicious dried in the air fryer and much faster than in a conventional oven.

For dessert, we had Tres Leches that my aunt made. By the way, @Eylz2021 today I will keep my word and send you the recipe. And we also had orangettes which are orange shells covered with dark chocolate, I love them and can be an addiction so I only allow myself to eat once in a while.

Our first days of the year have been pretty quiet. We've been eating a lot, I still have Hallacas in the fridge. Watching a lot of Netflix and spending time together with the family.

My Amazon lilies, which I told you in the last few days of the year were about to bloom, have opened beautifully.

Cora is still with us these days. This time a bit bigger and also more mischievous, but just as adorable. Her owner brought her with a very fancy bed that of course, she hasn't turned around to look at even once. And when she isn't sleeping, the little birds on the balcony are still her obsession and she spends a lot of time sitting looking out the window, I guess waiting for one of us to be careless and leave it open, so she can attack.

I don't know about you, but I don't like to make New Year's resolutions, especially those like I'm going to walk every day and by January 15 they are already forgotten. I prefer to set goals throughout the year, of course, that doesn't mean I shouldn't take care of my health and do a little more exercise, but I don't do it as a New Year's resolution because in my experience it's like condemning it to failure.

But I'm still sticking to make an exception as a New Year's resolution and follow the advice of @TengoLoTodo and making my ADAY wallet. Have you already created yours?

Again I wish you all the best for the year ahead and now it's time to catch up with you and my reading around here.

If you made it this far, thank you very much for reading.

Thanks to all my awesome sponsors. And especially to those of you who have recently renewed your sponsorships.

I have made my own new year resolutions and part of it is to stay tight with this platform and enjoy the best of it. I'm also on torum and I have a withdrawable accumulated gift of 9.47 xtm that is now worth $7.7 but my problem now is that I dont have the xtm contract address in order to input the xtm into my trust wallet so that I can withdraw my earnings into it. Pls how do I get the xtm contract address thank you

In Torum you have to accumulate 500 xtm from the missions to be able to withdraw, I haven't reached that amount yet. I'm sorry but I don't have the contract address.

What caught my attention was "hallacas" as it was my 1st time to heard about it. So I asked google and found out that it was eaten during special occasions because it was hard to make.

Yes, it's a traditional Venezuelan food for the Christmas season. They have a lot of work to make them. So the tradition is more than just eating a dish but also making it.

First of all, I wish you a happy new year and all the best! 😊 Your lilies are beautiful. And Tres Leches looks so delicious. It’s different than the one I make. I would like to know the original recipe from Venezuela. 😊 And orangettes are so good idea. That is just orange and chocolate right? I must try that as soon as possible. 😊

Don't worry I will post to you in here even if it is a bit long ;)

Ingredients: Bizcocho: 4 eggs, ¾ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ Cups of sugar

Suspiros in top: 3 egg whites, stiff peaks, 3 tablespoons of sugar

For the Cream: 1 pot of heavy cream, 1 pot of evaporated milk, ½ pot of condensed milk

Bizcocho: Beat the egg whites until stiff, and little by little add the egg yolks, then the sugar, and finally the flour. Put the mixture in a greased baking pan and bake in the oven at 180 °C (350 °F) for about 20 minutes. Test the baking with a toothpick that should come out dry when it is ready.

Keep in mind the baking dish is the same one you will use to serve the dessert. If you add a small amount of cornstarch to the mixture, the cake will be softer.

The cream: Blend the three kinds of milk. Use the condensed milk to sweeten the flavor of the cream. Use a fork to make holes in the sponge cake. Pour the cream over it and add an extra touch of condensed milk.

Then beat the eggs and the sugar for the suspiros (meringue) and cover the dessert with it. Put it in the fridge until served.
