About the joy of cooking and baking in a Norwegian kitchen.

Slowing down.
The party is over. Our house has been filled all day, starting with a birthday breakfast for my sister in law this morning, continuing with celebrating my parents and their golden wedding.
We love company and we love to fill the Blue Garden, but it is also nice when the party is over to sit down in a quiet livingroom, read a few pages from a book, think back to nice moments from the day. Marta has two cousins staying over and I hear alot of chatting and laughter from one of the upstair bedrooms.
I found a piece of bread left over from the lunch, and a boiled egg, and I walked out in the herbgarden for some dill and couldn't resist a few blue borago flowers when I passed by. A simple sandwich can be made into a small feats.
I live in Trondheim, Norway with my husband and two daughters. Two boys have moved out to create their own homes. I work full time, and have alot of interests, but there is hardly a day when you don't find me in the kitchen, playing with old and new recipes. And if I am not to be find it the kitchen, take a look in The Blue Garden. I am a member of the Slow Food movement and a supporter of the Slower Life.
