Winters love

Overall - Polarn o Pyret

I've made a new playlist for this week now, you'll find it here.

We've had the most perfect day outside. It's a wonderful luxury
having this much family time together. A is sleeping now and I've
just made some fruit desserts for her and two apple pies for us.

Time for coffee and dessert,
lovely afternoon to you too.

Human behaviour

Ceramist: Mia Blanche. Photographer: Lena Granefelt

This wounderful porcelain is made by Mia Blanche. I would love to have 
some of her georgeous ceramic creations in my future house. But right now 
our cupboards are jam-packed with all kinds of oddments. I believe it's 
a rather typical human behaviour, or perhaps swedish. 

Why are we so afraid of getting rid of things that we neither use nor 
like that much? The destiny of that poor little single cup always standing 
in the cupboard should be kind of obvious.

Food chain

Ingredients:
3 eggs
2 cups cottage cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 small pinch of salt.

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the wet ingredients and mix them
until they combine. Heat a frying pan over medium heat and put butter into it.
When the butter's quiet, pour batter for four pancakes into the pan.

Allow the batter to cook for several minutes until the pancakes are golden bown, 
carefully flip them over and do the same thing on the second side. Repeat until
everyone is rubbing their bellies and suggests a nap.

Paint's peeling


The left-overs of the Pavlova I made for thursday was perfect as night snack
yesterday. Today I came across my old art folder and just had to look into it. I
miss the wounderful world of oil painting. When you kind of give up everyting
around you and all focus is directed on to your brush holding hand
and the canvas.

I may show you some of my old works later on. Now we'll have cottage cheese
platelets for (late) lunch served with goat cheese and honey. Yummy!

Have a nice saturday evening.
