What the Wrap?!

I love wraps, salad wraps, corn wraps, vegetable wraps, halloumi wraps, salmon wraps, what ever the.. wraps. And art puzzles, one of my guilty pleasures, that hardly anyone I know understands. Puzzles.., is that not for retired grandmas with not much to do. Well maybe, but also its something for […]

Surviving V day the right way

Valentine’s day….Cupids day, a commercial day, invented by people, probably to sell more stuff and make money. So officially we don’t care about it that much, but since for me, love is my biggest love, it’s hard to completely ignore it. And even if you do choose to ignore it, […]

Kalepina colada

Nutritious kale in a pineapple / coconut smoothie. To not get stuck in my go to veggies, trying something different today! A kale smoothie…

Aubergine vitamine

This is actually a very easy dish. The key is to get the aubergines grilled juuuuust right. Not too long, not too short, just perfect. That can be subjective. Few years ago I was with my teenage daughter in Sicily (can definitely recommend that), and we had grilled aubergine in […]

Gado gado galore

This classic Indonesian vegetable dish, which literally means ‘Mix Mix’, is a very easy quick to make meal. I have been introduced to Indonesian food in my early childhood. My friend’s parents owned an Indonesian restaurant, and when I stayed over (quite regularly) we usually ate at the restaurant, not […]

“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, then what are we to think of an empty desk?”, Albert Einstein ones responded to a comment on his messy desk. If your house is a reflection of your brain, mine I would say, is chaotic, cosy and always […]

Jolie Cauli salad wrap

Apparently it’s cauliflower season here in my house, because this versatile vegetable keeps on coming back on the table. This time in another BLF favorite, salad wrap. Endless stuff you can put in a salad leaf, just ask people from Korea. Also try this non vegetarian Korea inspired salad wrap, […]

Poke loke mango bowl

A colorful, kinda crazy poke bowl. It was actually an experiment based on a papaya poke bowl, but I could not find Papaya…, hence mango it is. Very tasty and very pleasant to look at!

Leek soup

Sounds exciting right? Ok maybe not, but it is simple, healthy and quite tasty. Soup is becoming a dish that is growing on me. You can make a lot and put in freezer. You can feed lots of people in a short amount of time. Its also quite cheap. Soup […]

Herbus Asparagus – white gold

Its treasure season! Meaning the white gold is coming to the surface and can be found in stores and markets again. Its one of my favorites because it is so easy to make (especially if you kindly ask the store to peel them for you). And fast, your lunch can […]
