Mac & Cheese
Spring means for me busy time outside. Cleaning the garden and planting the things. Cursing voles and moles, and the damage they have done in my garden during the winter time. This also means that I do not have time for fancy and time consuming cooking,so I tend to do lots of soups and casaroles….

Spinach Waffles and Salmon Mousse
Sometimes you need a fast and fun food to eat. I like waffles because they are fun and fast to make And Kiddo loves them. My only issue has been that normal Waffels are so heavy and full of not so good things. So I decided to make a new recipe and give. Change for…
Spinach Soup and Feta Börek
Spinach soup is one of my favorite soups. It is served in Finnish school as lunch,usually with some meat filled pierogi and hard-boiled egg. I have lots of vegetarian friends,and they ask very often from me recipes. So this time I converted this classical recipe into something new. I used soy milk instead of the normal milk…
Karelian Pies; Soul searching deep into my Finnish heritage….
Karelian Pies..I tried to make this recipe as simple as possible to do because making of Karelian pies is a challenge by itself already but very much worth of it!
Pumpkin-Potato Spätzle and Rosemary Roasted Chicken Breasts
Spätzle is bit like pasta or noodles. It use to be poor man’s food. Eaten high up in the alps during the winter months.You had your stables of fat,milk,eggs,flour,ham and cheese. Traditional recipe is just flour,milk,eggs,salt and whole thing is being served with Bergkäse (heavy and strong-tasting Austrian cheese) on top and some fried onion.Heavy…

Zucchini alarm.. Zucchini fritters…
My veggie garden was two weeks unattended, and yesterday I had a look where my zucchini plats grow..Well,I found this whopper! 3,4 kg of overgrown zucchini. I know,it is not that tasty anymore but somehow I felt bad just to dump it away. So I had to figure out something to do with it. Yesterday…
Real Sicilian pizza dough and Mini Calzones

Perfect for lunch,picnic or when you need something savoury but not so heavy food…

Summer days..Long,hot and sunny. We have been spending lots of time outside in the garden. Kiddo water sliding ,playing in the sandbox and building all kind of things. Me digging,cutting,listening music,drinking wine and reading books.. Occasionally screaming to Tweedle Dee & Dum while they’ve gotten into their normal enterprising routines of getting in trouble. It…
