Birthday dinner








Food porn, again. Sorry, but I cannot resist it.

I celebrated my birthday last weekend. Nothing too fancy, just a good time with the nearest and dearest. First we went to museum to see an art exhibition of Andy Warhol (it was good, after all he IS the king of pop art!) and then dinner in nice restaurant. Some drinks after that in local pub. I had snails in garlic-herb-butter for first course, then pike perch for main course. It was all delicious. Happy bday for me!      

Flowers!

Honyed carrot soup for lunch

Today I made some honeyed carrot soup for lunch and baked a bread to go with it. Soup is delicious, it is our family favorite: Healthy, easy to make and very budget-friendly. You can find the recipe hear.


Carrot soup served with yougurt. And some Star Wars legos.

Bread I made. It was still a bit soggy in the middle. Better luck next time. Looks pretty nice, though.

Sunny weekend

As I said before: The spring is finally here. It is not a heat wave, but in my Finnish point of view +10C in March is good enough. I spent the weekend gardening and barbequing, and had lots of fun!


Hotdogs!
My brand new pruning shears. In my garden there's an old rose and only these shears were storng enough to cut overgrovn, prickly bush. I also needed a good gardening gloves. Hard work, but it is nice to see the result. 
Kids having a laugh. Can you believe how much fun gardening and eating hotdogs can be?

Flower power



Today I did a weekly cleaning. To celebrate I had to buy some lovely carnations.

Birthday party!

On Sunday we went to a birhday party. Charming little lady A turned 4. Oh boy, did we have fun!
Our gift beautifully wrapped. I love this colour green.
Birthday girl loves princesses, crowns and all pink & glittering stuff. So the theme of the parties was Princesses, ofcourse.
A delicious birthday cake. Made by A:s lovely grandmother.
More beautiful presents.
Having some fun with balloons.
Marshmallows and cookies. My son absolutely loves those pink cookies and had propably tens of them. I was worried he would get sic in a car on our way back home, but he was fine. 
Lovely birthday girl A!
