Light meals

Light meals – I guess that it might sound boring for some. It’s not so much about light meals as to watch your weight but the more, about less heavy dishes. The older I get the more I feel for healthy food that is nutritious, which is cooked with care for people, animals & environment. Which also means concern for producers. I’ve come to a point where I’m about to decide to become vegetarian. I usually choose chicken or fish, if I’m going for meat, as it is now. Hearty salads or salads with filling has been on the menu at home for a while now. Light meals, or healthy food rather, is also current now, after Christmas buffets, although it is the natural choice in general, for my part.

Daily inspiration, magical

A magical picture. Nicely photographed with steaming hot beverage, the white china, the surface beneath & the hand that gently touches the cup. It’s almost poetically beautiful.

Daily inspiration, white Christmas

A beautiful Christmas with simple attributes that make a nice Christmas in white & green. A little shiny metal accents for an icy feeling, too.

Christmas sweets

All sorts of desserts, snack & goodies are probably prepared & ready to serve for Christmas. No matter whether it’s bought or self made – although I prefer homemade. I had a mother who were very good at cooking, baking & in general an all-rounder in the kitchen. I inherited NOT the smallest portion of this ability. Maybe unfair, perhaps but it is what it is. But enjoying delicacies is not bad either. Desserts of all kinds are preferred, but generally, sweets is something of a must on the Christmas table. I thought this theme would be suitable a day like this – enjoy! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU,

Daily inspiration, cute

This picture reminds me of when my boys were little. They had lots of wooden toys & especially a locomotive with carriages that could be linked together to form long trains. They were a little bigger, sturdier & were in  colourless varnished wood. Anyway, you had to be rather creative to get them to eat, at times. This would have worked fine. To pretend a train comes loaded & we’ll have to eat in order to be able to tow more.
