A little Hello from my kitchen today and some all natural cleaning solutions. My favorite kitchen tool has to be my wood cutting board – it gets a workout every day for almost every meal. I even use my wooden cutting boards to serve bread and cheese and spread for lunch or bread slices for soups. To keep a classic wood cutting board in good shape, here’s how you should clean and care for it in a all natural toxic free way. STEP 1: CLEANMostly it's ok to just wipe the cutting board clean with a damp cloth - no soap or cleaning products needed. I tend to being sceptical to use soap or toxic cleaners on my cutting board ... really! It's the place I cut the food I eat - I don't want any harmful stuff here. When a quick wipe won’t cut it, bust ...
Magical full moon tea
With the full moon here (and Yes, super moon too) just these days, (on January 21st to be precise) I thought I'd share with you a recipe for full moon tea - just for fun. All people and the energy in nature are affected by the moon - either they know it or not. Some of us have trouble sleeping during full moon, some are more emotional..... in previous times people were much more aware of the moon and how it affected the nature, animals, the seeds and plants. I recommend reading more about the moon and it's energy to better understand. Making full moon tea is a fun way to make herbal iced tea and take a deep breath a second to rewind and enjoy the beautiful moon. With the moon being a feminine energy, this is a method to use if ...

Vegetarian «yummyness»
Hi my friends. I'm truly enjoying these holidays - sweet, lazy days off. As you probably already know if you follow my blog or know me personally, I'm a big big fan of making good, healthy yet simple food, gather my family and friends around the table and just be together. So many people ask me if I'm a strict vegetarian. No! Absolutely not. In my household we eat all kinds of food, som of my kids are vegetarians, some friends are too, and I've always enjoyed making a lot of vegetarian food and veggie meals. I've been a vegetarian in my younger days, but decided to be more like a "flexitarian " to make life a bit easier on some occasions. Nevertheless I make mostly veggie meals at home: 1. It's healthy and tasty. 2. The world is ...
Diffuser blends for winter and Christmas time
🇳🇴&🇬🇧 Today have been a freezing cold but beautiful day in Oslo. It's a frozen, crystal layer on trees and branches and almost everything outside. Idag har det vært iskaldt men utrolig vakkert her i Oslo. Det ligger et nydelig lag av rimfrost overalt og de korte timene med lys gir et risa-gyllent skinn. I feel like the Christmas spirit is coming early to me this year ... maybe it's the cold weather or maybe it's just that I've already started baking Christmas cookies with friends or maybe it's because of my diffuser spreading the wonderful scents of pure essential oils in my home. Jeg føler at julestemningen har kommet tidlig til meg Iår. Det er tross alt ikke 1.desember ennå. Kanskje det er på grunn av det kalde været, kanskje det ...
Favourite fall diffuser blends
🇬🇧&🇳🇴The best about fall and chilly, rainy, grey days are the idea of staying indoor doing indoor activities I love... knitting, baking, making food, writing articles for the blog and playing with my essential oils. 🇳🇴Det beste med høst, regn-og-ruskevær og kaldere dager er at jeg med god samvittighet kan være inne og gjøre inneaktiviteter jeg liker; strikke, bake, lage mat, skrive blog-artikler og "leke" med mine eteriske oljer. 🇬🇧I'm trying to swap out as many chemical-filled products around my home for more natural ones. I like to call it DITCH + SWITCH. 🇳🇴jeg prøver å bytte ut så mange giftige kjemikalier rundt i huset jeg bare kan og istedet bruke naturlige produkter og eteriske oljer. Jeg kaller det DITCH&SWITCH. 🇬🇧So today I ...
