The music cake

Greta had the last dat at the music class this year, and we had to bake a cake. This recipe of the chocolate cake is just heavenly good. It is not so sweet, but very very soft and spongy. Love it. But I did not like the topping, though.

And the bonus: Greta by the Christmas tree.

PS. Today I had an interesting idea about something I would like to do. I will start working on it some time soon, let us hope it goes fine. I might tell later.

Jazz festival painting

This pictures is from the local newspaper, taken at jazz festival where Greta was painting with other kids.
 
 
 
 
 

Sometimes it is difficult to leave kindergarten

Jazz festival is for kids, too!

Greta went with us today to the Jazz Festival and attended some activities for kids. First, we had fun on a jumping pillow, then Greta painted, and then we watched short jazz cartoons in the cinema. Greta liked them a lot.

Jazz and just lots of good shopping

Yesterday we had a babysitter, while we were at the Jazz Festival with our colleagues from work, and went for a walk in the town.

The festival market was quite nice, but so many expensive things. Nice at the same time.

Hehe, and in the foreigners grocery shop I saw pryaniki! But bought condensed milk instead :-)

And when we got home, a nice surprise was waiting for us. 2 boxes from iHerb and the new Ottobre magazine. Once again, iHerb is amazing. These containers have a freezer element to keep food fresh all the time. Plus subscreen and antibug and the foot lotion, and the tea.

And at the jazz festival be bought me a nice dress. Cool retro style.

More shopping. Onr tee for everybody - with the jazzfestival logo. Plus some things for me and Santiago.

So nice to do shopping sometimes :-))

A day before grocery shopping

One uses all the things from the fridge that might spoil otherwise and it turns out to be a pretty good salad :-)

Greta continues with her "cool" image, with the hat and the sunglasses all day long.

More nice music I found today: Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever ago and Kashmir - The good life

I am so proud

My husband is such a good father. I see them playing, drawing, building towers, and today they even took the bus to the town and went out for pizzas. And all that without even the spare pants for Greta! Meanwhile I participated in a running and did 4 km in 18.51. This is also part of my preparation for the Saturday's run in Oslo. And, Greta is doing this thing now, when they came home, she started telling me what they did: "The bus... pizza, daddy eats, Greta eats pizza, the bus. I liked it!" Wow. That is something new. Well, and also some time ago she started telling me what she had dreamed. She tells me about the elephants riding the bikes :-))

This morning Greta climbed to the driver's seat in the car and was kind of driving.

I found this nice music today, Clara Bryld. Bad thing I don't find her on Spotify. But she is nice.
