SYNTAX ERROR

Yes, it happened..... computer got sick................ we don`t know yet if all the info on the harddrive is still there...... So, I`ll take a breather from blogging and WILL come back - whenever the apple is ripe and running again.

And - always remember - to BACK UP.

As far as food matters - I`m mostly doing energy soups and smoothies at the moment. And - I`m off doing a raw food course during the weekend!!! SO excited. Check out the link: raw-food.no

For now - hope you all have a beautiful autumn. Ha de!

Sun and smoothie

Lots of sun today!!! WOHOOOO!! The sun is like a nutrient - an essential nutrient. We just NEED it.


Misty and cloudy in the morning.... but then, the sun came up!


And today - felt like using all the kale (grönkål) I found in the shop the other day. So, first of all - yes, you guessed it - green smoothie. Today, think I just had some bananas and maybe an apple + some kale =


Real nice. And then - just because I felt like it - some chocolate pudding! The million dollar question is: how do you take a nice photo of chocolate pudding???? This phot didn´t turn out very nice anyway.... but I promise, banana, avocado, cacao and carob = heaven.


Then, put some of my kale in a salad. Gave it a good massage with sea salt and olive oil first - but, I don´t know.... I´m not a big fan of kale salads..... it´s nice in smoothies... but, salads.... I don´t know. I did enjoy the savoy cabbage though. Just like the kale, savoy belongs in the Brassica oleracea family - so, they are closely related, but the taste is a bit different. But, both are super hero foods - with lots of antioxidants...


...throw some algeas, apple, tomato and spinach in.... And dressed it up with some dijon mustard! A nice lunch.

Now - evening.... and it looks like the rain is back. Well, we got one sunny day - made me happy.

Have a nice weekend! /A

Green smoothie revisited :)

Am I boring?? Is it much fun seeing photo after photo with green smoothies?... Well, I´m sorry, but it´s just what I live on right now - green smoothies! Simple, delicious, quick, satisfying.... and just the best. Today, I put 2 bananas, 1/2 pineapple and a few large leaves of kale (grönkål) in the blender:


This smoothie would probably be real good as a juice too, without the bananas.


So good. And, not too sweet, probably because of the powerful taste of kale.

But, the best thing of all today: NO RAIN! :) So exciting to see the sun. It´s getting real cold though. Perfect time to start using more kale. Hmm, maybe I´ll put together a cabbage salad tonight.... will be nice.

Have a happy Thursday! /A
