LORAC Cheek Stamp

Has anyone tried the LORAC Cheek Stamp? I’m kind of impressed about what I think it can do, but I’m not quite sure that I’m actually getting the whole idea, maybe I think it’s some wonderous rouge but infact it’s Crap with a capital C. Help! anyone? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Karoleen – Photographer © 2005-2011 All Rights Reserved. Contact me at mail@karoleen.se .

Salmon and vegetables

I made oven baked vegetables and salmon today. It was very yummy! At least according to me. It was really simple to make but very tasty and I surely recommend it. I basically chopped squash, aubergine, paprika (bell peppers), red onion and mushroom into bite size pieces. Put them into an oven pan, season with lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and rosemary. Place in the oven, heat 225 C for about 20 minutes. Mean …

Sad sad girl…

It’s quite sad when your boyfriend/fiance buys more clothes than you, right? Boys aren’t supposed to have lots of clothes, right?

Visum revisited

I miss having an animal of my own.  I’m an animal person, I’ve always had animals and now I don’t, and I miss it really bad. Last summer we were fortunate enough to be sitters for a german shepard named Visum (pictured). It reminded me of how much I miss curling up in the couch with my animals and just enjoying their company. My baby and I are planning to have an animal as soon …

There are six of us in my immediate familj, my parents, my fiance, my brother and his girlfriend and me.

Roasted spicy peanuts – Nut toss

This weekend was a cooking weekend. We tried some old favorites and we tried some new recipies. Some weren’t worth talking about but some are. Like our roasted nuts. I took peanuts and placed them in a warm frying pan, then I seasoned them with spices such as paprika powder, chili powder, strong chili and ancho chili (the amount is different from person to person). Then I let the nuts roast (careful not to burn …

Parenting – my cup of tea?

I took a parenting quiz, and these were my results: You seem to naturally know a lot about parenting, and you know what kids need.You can tell when it’s time to let kids off the hook, and when it’s time to lay down the law.While your parenting is modern and hip, it’s not over the top.You know that there’s nothing cool about a parent who acts like a teenager… or a drill sergeant! Try it …
