Of course the baby must enter the world with his own blog. What kind of mother do you think I am?

Baby boy, arrived 28th December 2011 at 16.11. What a gift.

Even when nothing’s going on these mugs from Kristofer Hoshino are still amazing.

With one of all the great gifts from yesterday.

I love Nutella. I like cookies. So the chances of me liking Nutella swirls should be good.

I tried Jamie Oliver’s home made muesli the other day. I’ve never tried making it myself but it was both rather quick and above all very easy.

Here’s my version of his version ( I make a double batch, or else it’ll be eaten in just 3 days…)

Begin with

- 400 g oatmeal

- 150 g of almond (becomes fantastic when roasted)

- 100 g seeds (50 pumpkin/50 sunflower)

- 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon

- 3-4 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

- drizzles of canola oil

Combine the above dry ingredients and spread in two oven trays. Drizzle honey/syrup and oil, mix well and put trays in the middle of the oven 175C. Let sit for 25 min and stir the mixture every 5 minutes. Don’t leave the kitchen, the mix will burn easily. Meanwhile chop dried fruit.

Afterwards add:

200 g chopped dried fruits of your choice. I like cranberries, dates and apricots.

Other suggestions: raisins, figs.

Serve

Add the fruit to the mix then it’s out of the oven and let everything cool. Store in airtight containers for up to 2 weeks. Serve with ice cold milk/yoghurt/sour milk.

The cute organic veggie shop in our building provided for a great lentil/kale soup!

I’ve done practically nothing but spending time in the kitchen for the past 8 days I’m overdue. We probably have the most well filled freezer in the neighbourhood. Yesterday and today’s achievements were biscotti and roasted muesli (not to mention a morrocan lamb & beef stew).

Maternity leave but no baby in sight. Rain instead of snow.

Chop chop!

and as from yesterday I am officially on my first ever maternity leave. ETA in 9 days.

Moving day, moving van and moving baby inside. Long day and new place to live!

Twice.

Apples. Blackberries. Almond/oat crumble.
