Very slowly but surely there is some white fluff coming out of the sky. It’s not a lot but it’s cold enough for the white stuff to remain. The day has been grey and very overcast. Certainly not ideal for taking photos so that’s a bit of a nuisance really… Yes, ladies and gentlemen by [...]

80-21-35 or is it 40-21-50? I honestly have no idea what the ideal measurements are supposed to be. What I do now, for a fact, is that my waistline is no where near those ideal measurements! You’ve heard me complain about them time and time again, and you also heard me say I would be [...]

Every single time we go to Greece the very first meal I order is a Greek salad. There is nothing better then the taste of those gorgeous tomatoes combined with the salty feta and the juicy cucumbers.

I see a flutter of wings when the magpie family lands on the windowsill right in front of my office window. It’s rainy and windy outside and they’ve taken the liberty to use our windowsill as a hide-out when it gets too wet in the trees. They are curious and I think the reflection in [...]

Pasta I can eat just about any day of the week. I think I have said it before, but I will tell you again; it is the perfect meal for using leftovers. Tom and I have had a fabulous weekend with lots of sunshine and a really nice foodfestival called “the weekend of the rolling [...]

When you receive an email from Ivonne and Lis asking if you would like to host the Daring Cooks for december, you just don’t say no! So I happily said yes and I thought it was an honour to be even asked, but as soon as the email was send; panick set in! O noooo, [...]

I think everyone has moments in a month, a week or a year where cooking seems to take less of a priority due to all sort of different reasons. We’ve lately been having some serious health issues within both Tom’s family as well as my family, which shift the importance of certain things quite dramatically. [...]

See the lovely green color of those peas?? I used frozen ones this time! Will not make the mistake of using canned peas (as here) again! Today was a national holiday so we kind of spend the day cooking. Let me be more specific; I have been cooking (and baking) and Tom was busy (spring)cleaning [...]
