time for some Pumpkin love the last day of October. 🎃🍁 As you may have noticed I love making food from scratch and I love using local food and even food from the garden if possible. It’s time for pumpkins and even in Norway we decorate and set the big jack o lanterns outside for Halloween. But very few people actually know what to do with the delicious edible pumpkins. So, I decided I wanted to share a couple of recipes. Yesterday I shared my pumpkin spice recipe and the other day I shared my pumpkin soup recipe. (Norwegian) Today I’ll share a recipe for homemade pumpkin purée that are a perfect way to preserve the pumpkin and is so useful for lots of autumn recipes. I’ll share a homemade pumpkin pie recipe too. If ...

Green matcha tea sugar scrub that will make you glow
🇬🇧🇳🇴Making sugar scrub for the skin is so easy and so fun - and the best side effect : the skin will glow, get nourishment and be exfoliated in a gentle, all natural way. I love try and make different recipes and different types of sugar scrubs. I make only small batches each time so they won't sit on my shelf for long. I prefer sugar scrub over salt scrub because I find the sugar scrub more gentle to the skin. This time I've made a green matcha tea sugar scrub for face and body. Matcha tea powder has tons of benefits - but the main reason I've used it in my scrub is because it contains a lot of antioxidants and is a natural detoxifier. I use coconut oil and white sugar in my scrub, but if you prefer brown sugar that's perfect too. I ...
