H works close to our home (a four minute bike-ride away, to be more precise) so he has the privilege of coming home for lunch every single day. Today was no exception and I made my infamous chicken “nuggets” {RECIPE} with rice and a super-easy yet delicious creamy sauce (take 2 dl of cream, pour it into a tiny saucepan, add a dollop of concentrated chicken stock, a teaspoonful of honey and half a teaspoon of curry powder, bring your sauce to a boil and let simmer until it thickens and you’re ready to eat.)
As you can see, the little lady had no intention of waiting for me to be done taking a picture 🙂
Marilin came to see us yesterday and we made waffles! We couldn’t stop talking until it was already way-too-late-o-clock and I’m a teeeensy bit tired today (we may have enjoyed a glass or wine or too as well), but it’s all well worth it because we had tons of fun. We also made plans to go mushroom hunting (if we’re lucky, we’ll find blueberries as well) in the weekend. Squirreling at it’s best!
Squirreling 2.0 – I washed all our lidded jars yesterday and will probably need a lot more. Because I’ve got…
… a ton (about 10-15kg) of H’s grandmother’s beetroots and carrots to turn into borscht. It’s a way of encapsulating flavors of the summer and being able to just pour stock over your soup base and you’ve got a delicious beetroot soup with zero effort whenever you like. We’ve also got…
… a million apples. This is just a fraction of all the apples we picked last weekend. That’s about 15kg of apples that are going to be jam and there’s also about 60kg of apples that will be turned into apple juice. Nice, home made, cloudy apple juice. Noms!
When I’ve got another half an hour of spare time, I’ll show you photos of what’s new in our little nest. Soon, I promise!
Mmm.. need kananagitsad… : )
Vahvlid on veits kõrbenud või? Ok, paar tk päris ahvatlevad.. peaks ka nõukaaegse masina välja otsima ja vahvleid tegema (:
Aa, oih, ei ole tegelikult. Värvigamma teeb nad süsimustaks, tegelikult olid ikka harilikud pruunid poisid 😀 See on see hipsterivärk, ilgelt popp pilt küll, näed, aga ei kajasta reaalsust!
No vot seal on’s nüd. Ma muidu ei seedi mingit packratimist, aga iga kord kui näen kellelgi vahvlipilti või kuulen vahvlite tegemisest, siis ma mõtlen, et miks ma ometi ei võinud olla rohkem packrat ja jätta alles vähemalt nõukaaegset vahvlimasinat!!!! Muide, kus sa elad, ma tuleks ka lõunale Su juurde 😀 😀
Tallinnas elan, tule muidugi 😀 JA ma ka viskan armutult ära kõik kahtlase väärtusega kraami, aga hallo, see vana vahvliraud on ju haljas kuld!
