The last days have been wonderful. It’s still only March, yet we’ve had almost 20 degrees here in Stockholm. Isn’t that weird? I mean, I live in Sweden, where it’s winter 6 months a year and we’ve had such warm weather in March. Today it went back to normal with 3°C and snow. Gah! Since I’ve been working quite a lot both Monday and Tuesday (at my part-time job) I had today off and had a lot of ...
Glutenfree Seed Crackers & Weekend plans
It's finally Friday and I was done with work quite early today. The sun was shining from a clear blue sky and I had no hurry whatsoever to get to the subway home. I enjoyed the sunny weather and payed my favorite shops a visit on the way, just to get some inspiration. As the creative soul that I am, I constantly seek new inspiration and Pinterest is my number one favorite source, but sometimes I ...
Glutenfree & vegan waffles
Four years ago, I had so much trouble with my stomach. No matter what I ate, I would get bloated and have a lot of pain. Doctors thought it was IBS, so I went to a dietitian (before I became one myself) to get some advice. She said that I should stop eating garlic, onions and lots of other stuff. I should also stop eating gluten. Since I was pretty desperate, I decided to listen to everything she ...
Cyprus
There is something about the Mediterranean that has always attracted me. I don’t know if it’s the relaxed and non-stressful lifestyle, the light, the weather or the great food. Maybe it’s a combination of them all. I have been to Greece quite a few times in my life and I love the country. The narrow streets, the friendly people and all the cats <3 We wanted to go somewhere in Europe this summer ...

Vanilla Oatmeal with Crunchy Apple Topping
It’s Saturday morning and I wake up before the sun. Silently, I crawl out of bed, trying to not wake Kalle, who is still sleeping. The wooden floors are cold under my bare feet. I tiptoe to the kitchen where I prepare a cup of green tea. I wrap a blanket around my shoulders and sit down in one of our large windows. Everyone is still sleeping. It’s too early, even for the birds. It’s a special ...
Hot chocolate
All of a sudden, the winter came back to Stockholm and all I feel like doing is to cuddle up inside with a book and a cup of hot chocolate. It’s not terribly cold according to the termometer, but the wind is so cold and biting I can feel it in my bones. The only thing that seems to be working in this weather is to fill up with warm drinks from within. Coffee and tea is great, but my absolute ...
Pancakes with cloudberry jam and coconut cream
Is there anything better than waking up on a Saturday morning, knowing that you have the entire weekend ahead of you? I think those mornings are my favorites, especially when we decide to make pancakes for breakfast. I have always had a thing for pancakes, and I’m really glad that Kalle loves it too. The only thing better than eating pancakes is eating pancakes with the one you love, don’t you ...
Chia pudding with soy yoghurt
My first experience with chia puddings wasn’t…well, let's just say that it wasn't love at first bite. I remember that I mixed chia seeds with water, waited for about 10-15 minutes and then ate it. It wasn’t really what I had expected. But, I researched it and found out that I had a few things to learn about it all. So, I went from water to oat milk, to coconut milk and finally I made my way to the ...
