Hello and happy Saturday. Hope your weekend is good. Today I want to share the recipe for a tasty, summery, yellow sunshine soup, made of sweet corn 🌽 zucchini/ squash, coconut milk and fresh turmeric root. I love soups, even in the summer. This one is light and fresh and can even be consumed cold if you have any leftovers. The corn will soon be ready to harvest - and that's by the way one of my favourite things to go harvest at the near-by farm. Grilled, freshly picked sweet corn is sooo good. Freshly pickled corn can even be eaten raw. It's sweet and delicious. So, if you, like me, love picking sweet corn you should definitely try this yellow sunshine soup. You can even use leftover corn after bbq or if you cook a few extra corn. ...
Instant sunshine popsicles ☀️
Peppermint-Melissa tea popsicles with Caramelised kumquat Wow! How cool is that?!? To make popsicles of tea made from your own homegrown garden herbs!!

It works perfect both as warm tea and ice tea, so if you have some leftovers after making tea in your tea pot, don’t throw it away! And as a bonus melissa and peppermint both have some wonderful medical properties. Soothing, calming, antibacterial, supporting digestion and so on. So, I got this idea it might be yummy to make iced tea popsicles. I had a few kumquat from my friends greenhouse and I wanted to use these for something fun. Citrus are all uplifting and works as instant sunshine. So this ...

Swedish Raspberry coconut oven pancake (you won’t miss this one!😉 )
It's one of those days .... ...you know that day, when your old car decides it's ok to drive to the grocery store.... but when you're finished shopping and have placed all the goods inside the car, ready to go home .... then the car decides it's more exciting to not work properly and instead get towed home ....
