We are on the Lofoten. We just did a lovely hike with amazing views and were rather wet when we arrived back in our camper. We have a few good reasons to stay on the parking lot until tomorrow : as a camper you have to pay for 24h; there are so many tourists on … More Time for an afternoon tea with campervan-made pancakes
Every single day I enjoy my afternoon teatime with something extra. A cookie is enough on (most) weekdays, but often not on weekend days 😉. Today we had late breakfast and late lunch, but still towards 16.30 I decided to prepare an afternoon delight. Last week I ‘consulted’ the summer editions of my favorite cooking … More Lastminute decisions

A common form of galette resembles a type of single crust, free-form pie with a fruit filling and the crust folded partway over the top of the filling, as you can read on Wikipedia. It’s an easy homemade version which can be compared with puff pastry. Today I seem to be in a French mood. … More La galette in a sweet version
Why do I keep on buying cookbooks if Google can show it all? Because I can’t help it, and, because books in general attract me much more than internet. Not every cookbook is amazing from the first view, sometimes they gradually grow on you. Donna Hay has a new one : ‘One pan perfect, fresh … More Celebrate the weekend with Donna Hay
