Foodieness

I´m a foodie. I admit it. I love pleasing people with food. I love getting praise for my food. I love the intoxicating feeling of tasting something wonderful. Especially if it is new to me. I love sharing that feeling.

One of my favourite things is to grow my own vegetables and herbs. It gives me immense satisfaction to create something colourful, tasty and comforting out of something I have pulled out of my own (or my Dads) soil.

Now I´m excited. Remember those pressies I blogged about back in august. They were for some special friends. The kind free from duties.

Tomorrow I´m giving them what I love the most. Food cooked from scratch. Good ingredients. And made with love. I can´t wait. I´ve been planning and replanning the menu in my head for the last month or so. And it´s ready. I want to keep it a surprise, but I can tell you it involves home dried wild trumpet chantarelles and pumkin from Dads garden. Sigh. I can´t wait.

I will post recipies after the feast is devoured.

Confession #7

I´m a gaming nerd. I love computer games, but I try to stay away from them as I get totally hooked. And it´s not like I need more reasons to play with my new baby,  Lucy Queen of Narnia (Luce for short), than I already have. (I might as well hook her up intraveinously).

I´ve already posted about it way back when. My favourite (till now) has been Samorost, but now I have a new favourite from Amanita designs.

In Machinarium you get to "be" the cutest little robot. I played throught the demo last night, and I am already totally hooked.

And for those sceptics out there. This game is an award winning point and click classic, and a logical challenge. Just made fun in a special universe with a really sweet robot.

It´s out. Check it out.

My Day: Bytesize

 

Breakfast. Double cappuccino and carrot cup kake.

Have had a beautiful day that included good friends, good hugs, good coffee, and good photography.

 

 Lovable poster. I want to be that cocky champion.

 

Bike bar (that middle bit). With sculls. Season appropriate.

 

Old school fire alarm. 

 

Old pharmacy. Now clothes store.

The shop has been here since the 50´s.

Organic indulgence. One of my true faves.

 

Some more Nuart. Gorgeous.

Kitchenscapes

My newly made tablecloth inspired some colourful kitchen photos. The red chairs are new to me, but of course old. Some old people in the appartments above my office were going to throw them out.

 

 

 

 

 

Rusty Texture

I love rust. The colour. The corrosion. The texture. It expresses a life lived. Experiences made. And natures way of always winning. Of course some warm Autumn light helps it on.
