Winter mood…

It’s freeezing in Denmark… I went out the door this morning and instantly decided to go shopping for a warm winter jacket with room enough for a big belly.

All I really feel like these days are my warm bed, croissants and coffee.

Happy weekend everyone!

Candy

I never use to eat candy before I got pregnant, at least not that much. Now it´s a different story I just can´t get enough….

Pancakes for breakfast

I woke up to a big pile of pancakes this morning :) Don’t you just love pancakes?

Weekend time

These last couple of days has flown by with no time to blog at all. I’ve had so many good things done this Week; a lot of organizing and planning for the shop, I’ve seen friends and family that I haven’t seen for while, I’ve tidied up at home,  I’ve got laundry done and I even baked buns yesterday.

I’ll be back soon with pictures of “what-the-guest-star-of -this-week-wore”  I’ts gonna be great :)

Blackberry jam

Anders recipe on blackberry jam:

Blackberries,

Sugar,

Brandy,

Lemon juice,

Water,

Boil the berries 10 min. in water and lemon juice, add sugar and boil for another 10 min. put in the brandy and set the whole thing on fire. Stir thoroughly and cool down. Easy huh!

The berries are from Anders parents garden by their house on “Orø”, we keep a big bunch of them in our freezer and use them for smoothies and stuff like that.

Ps. Have I got the best blog readers or what? I’m so flattered by all your comments on my previous post; thank you so much!

Good Morning!

Hello Monday…

Monday again so soon, huh? This weekend was way to short -brilliant, but way to short!

Anders and I have been watching episodes of “Mad men” on dvd for way to many hours last night, so I´m not really awake just yet…

Surprise party…

My brother Niller handed in his thesis this Monday and last night my sister Sigga and I threw him a surprise party.

We had balloons, flags, wine, presents, lots of food and excellent company. Besides that Niller was totally surprised so this party was a great success!

Sunday…

Beautiful beautiful garlic…

My dad and stepmom have created the most wonderful garden ever by their house on a small Danish island called Samsø. They grow asparaguses, onions, potatoes, apples, herbs, cherries, garlic and lots of other things…

-Sometimes they bring home little miracles like this beautiful bundle of garlic!

Our kitchen…

While Anders cooked dinner last night I took some pictures of our kitchen. It’s not a very big kitchen but it’s a great one -I love to sit on the kitchen table when I come home at night and talk talk talk while Anders is creating little miracles.

The look of our kitchen is not that thought through. It is a standard Ikea kitchen that was already here when we took over the apartment.  The  colour theme of our pots, pans and kitchen tools are red  -I have been collecting for several years and have quite a collection…

Last night we had a Thai dish with rice and curry -I’m a bit of a curry-addict.

Hope you have had a great Weekend all. -And once again; thank you so much for all your sweet comment, I really appreciate them!

Sunday morning breakfast…

Back home…

We arrived home yesterday afternoon and had a little birthday party in the evening -Anders was the center of attention:)

I’m looking so much forward to a Sunday with time to catch up on all your lovely blogs and with lots of yummy leftovers from yesterdays party.  I have over 900 unread posts in my google reader waiting!!!

Tonight is “Harry Potter” night…

Weekend…

What’s for dinner?

Anders has been cooking like a crazy little tornado all week -I feel so spoiled…   Here are some of my delicious servings.

Our current obsession is apple juice with sparkling mineral water, it’s really good -not to sweet and very refreshing…

Ps. Notice the poster in our hallway on the first picture!

Tonight we are having fish…

It’s a CELEBRATION!

This blog is celebrating it’s first anniversary today … 350 posts all together -Cool huh?

A very special thank you to all my fabulous readers and fellow bloggers for all your comments and  interest -you’re the best!

What better way to mark this celebration than with lots of cake…

Surprise dinner!

Anders made me a surprise dinner last night, he was suppose to play football and come home late but due to an all day long rainfall his football match got cancelled, -and when I came home, to what I thought was an empty apartment, a beautiful table was set with all my favourite kind of cheese, ham, sausages, fruit, and red wine… I’m pretty sure I married the perfect guy!

Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures; -sometimes Anders thinks I do to much photoghraphing around here… Anyway this is a picture from another night, but it’s still cheese and red wine!

Rainy Thursday…

A long day with sushi in the end…

Phew… even though today was the day I was suppose to be free as a bird -I ended up working all day long. The floors in the shop was all done this morning, so Lea, Anders and I have been busy painting walls and rearranging everything in there.

I’m not done yet, but so far it looks great! At the end of the day I was to tired to take any pictures -maybe tomorrow!

Anders and I treated ourselves with a nice sushi dinner in the backyard when we came home…

Hope you all had a nice weekend!

French toast and coffee

This is not my everyday breakfast, but sometimes Anders makes me some french toasts in the weekends…

I have been cleaning up today, because I’m having the floors of the shop done over the Weekend and by Saturday afternoon I need to have everything removed from the shop, to my very very small stock-room/kitchen in the back.

Right now I can’t really imagine how I’ll manage to make everything fit in there, but I hope it will work out okay in the end…

Tomorrow I’m gonna do some “before pictures” of the floor and hopefully I’ll do the “after pictures” on Tuesday next week.

Oh, by the way Lina gave me this award yesterday and it is my very first time to recive an award -so I must admit I’m pretty damn proud! Thank you Lina.

Happy Monday…

The “Brinja movie” is here… but I’m such a dork, I can’t seem to figure out how to post it directly on the blog,  – so you have to click here to see it!

I had a lot of fun watching it. -Let me know what you think?

Meeting up with my siblings for a chit-chat, snacks and a soda has been the perfect highlight this Monday…

Prague day 2

Prague day 1

One more reason to visit Bryggen…

These pictures are from a café at Bryggen (the area where my shop is) called “Nose Wise” -which, if you translate directly from the Danish word “næsvis”, means something like cheeky…  Did this make any sense at all?

Well, it’s a word play!

Anyway -the point is that they make excellent coffee and very yummy sandwiches. You can go here and read more! (in Danish -sorry)

Today was a grey and rainy day…

I ate an apple on my way to work and watched the world go by…

Talking about apples; did you ever read this book? -My all-time favorite!

Sunday diet

When I woke up this morning pancakes were on the table!

-And once I got hungry again I was served Indian food with chicken and spinach…

Hope you too are enjoying your Sunday. See you next week…

Ps. I’m glad you like the “Clothes of this Week post” I’m not quite sure if I am gonna do Weekend pictures -but I will think about it!

International Workers’ Day

Uhmm, breakfast…

Two things I made today

And a spinach pie Anders made yesterday…
