Lunch at the beach
We are having Some wonderful warm summer days here on the southern coast of Norway. We enjoy a few days off before the upcoming wedding on Saturday and today was perfect to chill at the beach. We brought our sup (stand up paddle) board and had totally fun practicing and paddle. This is a wonderful and fun investment. It's not for small children but for teens and adults this is a perfect "toy". It's also pretty sustainable (even if it's made of rubber). It's definitely nothing you throw away after one or two times use like any other floating plastic toy.. it has more than one use and it might be used for both stand up paddle (like it's meant to) but also sitting, laying down, playing, floating, relaxing... I tried sup first time last ...
The cutest Crochet mobile purse
As you maybe already know, we're planning, shopping, packing and getting ready for the big big happening in our family next week: Camilla and Edvin's wedding! We are so exited and happy and we really are totally over the moon ... So, as we're all different personalities in the family we are all in different stages of our to-do list before we leave to the beautiful southern coast of Norway for the wedding .... the male members of the family are ... well ... probably doing this their male way ... they need to wash the car, assemble the suit, polish their shoes, maybe go to the barbershop...and then they are good to go... 😁 The girls ... we do it a bit differently... we have been planning, thinking, shopping, made lists, gathering ideas ...
Refreshing elderflower and pineapple popsicles
No doubt the most refreshing thing I can ever think of on a warm summer day must be popsicles. And what's better than fresh, homemade popsicles with real fruits. The ones I want to share with you today are made of canned pineapple, elderflower limonade, raspberries and kiwi. Sooo yummy. You can easily make popsicles as long as you have a suitable mold, it's easy and affordable and you can change it up to find your own favourite. You can for example change up the elderflower limonade with your favourite limonade or kombucha (recipe here) Here is my recipe for today's popsicles 😊 Fresh, summery elderflower and pineapple popsicles 230 grams canned pineapple with juice 400 ml ready made elderflower limonade (you can find the recipe on my ...
The best finger food :)
Today is Sols graduation day after finishing 10th grade. Congrats to my beautiful girl!! And of course there will be a party at school where we all have to bring some finger food. I chose to make some luxurious, typical Norwegian smoked salmon&tortilla rolls. I really love this simple yet tasty finger food. I'll write this recipe in English because I wrote my sweet bun recipe yesterday in Norwegian - and because I guess it's no need for a recipe for this rolls for my Norwegian friends. They are some kind of healthy, they are pretty simple to make and most people love them. You'll need wheat/potato tortillas, cream cheese (I used one with herbs and garlic), smoked Norwegian salmon or trout, dill, alfalfa sprouts or other kinds of ...
Siste skoledag og skolebrød
Det er siste skoledag for mine jenter, siste dag av 10 års skolegang for Sol og siste dag av 12 år på skole for Eirun... og hva passer vel ikke bedre enn nybakte, hjembakte, rykende ferske skolebrød for å feire.

Rør gjæren ut i lunken væske. Bland i sukker, bakepulver, salt, kardemomme og 2/3 av melet og rør til deigen blir jevn. Spe med resten av melet til du får en smidig deig. (Bruk gjerne kjøkkenmaskin) La deigen heve til dobbel størrelse ca. 60 minutter. Trill deigen til en pølse og skjær i ca 24 biter. Trill hver bit til ...
