New in - Grimms Märchen

This is a collection of all the fairy tales written by the Grimm Brothers, including the original comments by the writers themselves.


Roasted green beans with mushrooms

This is a really easy recipe for delicious roasted green beans with mushrooms, balsamic and parmesan. I do think that roasting vegetables is the greatest trick to add to your cooking repertoire, because nothing concentrates and sweetens the flavor of vegetables more than roasting.

5 Things

Everyone should do this: make sure you get 5 pictures every week of things you did just for yourself, things you like, just to enjoy your life. It also helps to remind yourself how beautiful life is and what things you can do, whether for yourself, your friends or others. Just try it!

Chillin' before we're going to a party :)

Blueberry-Lemon Galette

So, we both love, love Pinterest! It's the greatest way to find inspiration about, well, basically everything. Yesterday I was just randomly browsing through the food section (bad idea if you do that after you have already eaten, it makes you crave even more food!) and I found this Blueberry-Lemon Galette
which sounded really delicious, and I thought "well, we have christmas in about 5 weeks, it's cold outside and I didn't have plans for monday anyways, why not practice my baking skills?". And it was the best decision ever!



Thoughts on: Happiness

 
Let's be honest, being happy is the most important thing in life, am I right? Anyone who says something else would be, well, kinda weird. I constantly find my self asking 'what makes me happy?' and I have a huge list of things that do (of course I also have a list about that kind of things!!). But to be honest, it's hard always doing things of this list, most of the time because of a lack of time. And seriously, why do I have to follow a list? Can't you just find happiness in your everyday life?

Dreamhouse in Stockholm, Sweden

This apartment is located in an old building which was renovated recently. They saved some old elements and combined them with modern, Scandinavian design which leads to a beautiful result. The apartment is located in Sibirian, a very vibrant and popular part of Stockholm with lots of restaurants, shops and cafés. I would do anything to have a house like this!

DIY: Recycled jars

So I was just cleaning my place, when I saw these jars that had been standing there for some days, waiting to be brought to the garbage.

Suddenly I realized I had some left over paint from one of my previous "do-it-yourself-projects", the one with the black globe. I just painted the lids of the jars black and now I have some useful containers which, in my opinion, look way better than with the original lids!
