Water and eggs at the cabin

Pink Princesse has been creative at the cabin

She's preparing for Easter

She has painted empty eggshells

in watercolors Outside, spring has made the ground pretty with the earliest flowers we get in Norway The ice is melting in the little lake and water is overflowing the dam Little Chef is helping!

Pollen is also a part of spring

I've made my precautions:

Eyedrops, nosespray and allergy medicine

therefore I can sit outside in the sun

enjoying a

Good book (notice the reading glasses, I'm getting old....)

A cold beer, lovely!

(Notice the T-shirt, I'm not that old after all..)

Cheers!

Football, Earth Hour and a few nuts

It's time to celebrate Earth Hour

We're ready

at least I am

I've made a fire

charged my PC

Turned of all the lights
lit loads of candles

But
and isn't there always a bu!
My husband is insisting to watch football.
After all, it's Norway vs Denmark
and he wants the Norwegians to kick som serious Danish butts!
A compromise has been made;
Everything off, except the tv. And to the game:
just raisins and nuts.

Our Enchiladas was prepared and consumed

in good time before everything went dark!

Waffle Monday

It's Monday

The weekend is far far away

Pile up some waffles
Make sure to dig in

before they're gone!

Funny how everything looks brighter!

Food and nutrition project

Little Chef was in charge of

a 3 course meal tonight,

as a project at school.

He used his cook book

planned the menue

set the table and started cooking:

Home made tomatoe soup from scratch


Spicy meat balls

Served with rice and a fresh salad For dessert:

Tilslørte bondepiker

He sure did a good job feeding us!

All in the oven

Don't you just love food that makes itself in the oven

While you do something else, like listening to your favourite music
And when the timer rings
We sit down and eat
all is baked, soft and tender

Amandine potatoes, turnip rooted parsley, parsnip, carrot, pepper and onion
And chicken legs
A bit of oil, salt, pepper and rosemary.

Boost

Put a spoonful of honey in your tea

Eat salmon
Make yourself a giant smoothy

Full of berries, juice and youghurt

It's pure energy

And it can't get better than that!

Sunday in the sun

This is one sweet smelling rose

I wish I could capture the scent in a photo!

This is one cinnamon smelling piece of crisp bread

What if I could capture the scent of it!
Today Dinkie enjoyed herself in the garden
Feeling the sun on her mustache

She thought the snow was a bit cold

So she brought a blanket to sit on

I was there too

my boots on with woollen soles inside

Feet warm and the sun warming my face

Lovely!
