30th of October. today is The Day before Halloween and I’m sharing my homemade pumpkin pie spice recipe just in time for the day when most Norwegians set up their “scary pumpkins” lanterns for the Halloween night. That said we don’t have a huge tradition on using the pumpkins around here and a lot of people don’t even know the delicious pumpkins are edible. Most of us have however been introduced to pumpkin spice trough pumpkin spice latte at the coffee shop. The most delicious coffee drink of the season if you ask me. Truly- when the fall is on I never get tired of those warm, tasty spices. I’ll be sharing a recipe or two tomorrow on some delicious ways to use the pumpkin - until then I hope you’ll enjoy my homemade pumpkin pie spice ...

Lovesong to Lilacs
The lilacs are still blossoming some places in Oslo. I LOVE lilacs. They are the sign of spring evolving to summer, they bring the best scent, lovely color and promises of warm summer days and long, light summer nights. The bliss of warm air to the skin, bare feet on the grass, happy days in the garden. If that isn't good enough lilacs are also edible - perfect to sprinkle on top of desserts, cakes and salads for a festive look. You can even make syrup, jelly or whatever comes to your mind. Today I want to share my lilac syrup recipe. I've shared a recipe on lilac syrup earlier (maybe last year) too, but this year i changed it a bit, adedd more water and less sugar to lower the risk of the syrup becoming "sugary" or harden ...
