Bread

Baking bread is like therapy.

Kløben

Kløben is a South Jutish Christmas bread. It's super delicious! When I visited my family for the Holidays I decided to try my hand at baking it!

It has marzipan, raisins, almonds and all kinds of goodness in it!

Definitely not the last time I bake kløben.

Delicious

So tasty!!!

These are done in school, for my production - the things I make will be sold, hopefully. These are going to be framed in two quadratic frames with black backgrounds.

I want to post about this years Kløften Festival, but I'll have to wait, seeing as my sister is keeping the good images hostage, while she's at Roskile! So, have some sketches instead;



My dad had prepared eggs for when I came home for Kløften, so that I could have sun-eggs ♥ I love sun-eggs, they're so delicious.

I will go now, and watch Hellboy; the Golden Army, and fangirl over Prince Nuada.

I just got a new sweater today ♥

This weekend was spend with my parent, and Bernhard, in their summer cottage. I enjoyed it, I was able to completely relax! It's still not finished, so the toilet didn't work, there were holes in the ceiling (it was like sleeping in a tent, haha) and my dad was working on it all the time. But I love it there ♥ I read a lot, went for quite a few walks on the beach and watched a few movies. I can't wait to go back there when my vacation starts!

On another note; I just got two additions to my small terrace; a chrysanthemum and a strawberry plant. One of the strawberries were already ripe today, and I can tell you, it was delicious and sweet ♥

happy 50 years!

I spend this weekend with my family. It was SO nice just relaxing at home and not having to worry about anything. My parents had just gotten home from a vacation to Bermuda, so I looked albino compared to them, haha. Though, sadly I haven't got a picture of that!
Right before my parents took off it was my dad's 50 years birthday. So now we got the opportunity to celebrate him ♥
During the weekend I ate a lot. Like, A LOT. You know, I love eating and when it tastes good, I eat more than I can bear, haha.












Can you feel the spring? I love it! When I arrived at the train station today it was too hot for jackets and scarfs ♥

Mousy time

This weekend was in the name of Mousy!
As she had predicted, we ended up eating, watching some movies, eating some more, drawing a bit, read urban legends and ate. Did I mention we ate a lot?
I was supposed to go home yesterday, but I didn't feel like going home, so I stay one more night ♥

We watched "the Road to Eldorado", "How To Train Your Dragon", "Monsters Inc." and "Repo: the Genetic Opera" ♥ And then a few episodes of "Drawn Together". Man, I felt kind of disgusting after eating all we did, haha!

I already miss my Mouse ♥

..and as you might have guessed, I've finally bought myself a camera! I love it so much. I'm also trying to find a good way to edit pictures, so look forward to seeing some different kinds of photos in the future.

Happy birthday

I'm 19 years old now, it doesn't really feel that different from being 18, haha.
It was this Saturday, so I had invited my parents, sisters and their boyfriends over for brunch. I had planned everything in beforehand, and luckily I got everything done almost on time! But I tell you, five hours of cooking is hard on you!

I remembered to take a photo of the food when people had started eating, so all the plates, most of the smoothies, bread and pancakes are gone. But doesn't it look delicious? There was SO much food, and almost everything was eaten, haha ♥

I had such a good time, it was nice having them all visit me.
I even got a LOT of present, some really good ones! Let me show you:

I also got a big and fluffy shirt, tights and another copy of Alice in Wonderland!

Around 4pm my family went home. I had actually planned to spend the evening alone, but then that thought became too much for me, being all alone on my birthday :(
So I called Sascha and invited her and Kenny over! We ate some of the left over food and just enjoyed ourselves. At dinnertime I drove home with them and ate! And after dinner, we went to Sascha's parents place! There we had "Fastelavnsboller" and ice cream with strawberries - and we watched Fantastic Mr. Fox ♥

So, I really had a great day ♥ ♥ ♥

Sunday, Sascha and Kenny came by again, to have some more food! I made them American Pancakes, mmm.

I felt so full and disgusting afterwards, with all the food I'd eaten throughout the weekend, haha.

The black skirt is homemade. I finished sewing it while Sascha and Kenny had just gotten here!
Honestly, it's not finished yet, I need to make a print on it. But I was so happy to have finished sewing it, that I needed to wear it!

And lastly, before this gets too long and boring, I have a little project going on right now:

Can you guess what it is? And Sascha, your answer is invalid, haha ♥

Fasteline meet-up

This Saturday was once again dedicated to the Fasteline meet-up hosted by Musen ♥
We started off by visiting AROS, though there wasn't much new to see, as one of the main exhibitions, was the same as last time we went there - and the new one, had too many people visiting.

But, just like last time, I was ecstatic about Lemmerz Ghost exhibition! I noticed a lot of new things in his works this time, I even couldn't remember some of them.

Later we went to SHARKS, as usual, to eat.
This time I had the brownie with ice cream!

It was quite expensive for the amount, and the taste wasn't great.. Definitely going to get the sundae ice cream next time!
But I didn't go away disappointed - the milkshake was great, and I got to eat everyones scraps ♥ You guys are so sweet!

As this month is Fastelavn (Shrovetide ?) I decided to dress up more fancy than usual. I had ordered a masquerade mask especially for this occasion!

The skirt looks quite short on the picture, haha. And flat shoes make my legs chubby.. But I really like this co-ord!
