Semlor



Semlor förgyller vintern.
Gräddiga och tillbredden fylld med mandelmassa.
Helst hembakade
Små hellre än stora 
Både en och två slinker utan problem ner
Mamma Mi var här förra veckan och bakade fantastiskt goda semlor. 
Det finns några bröd kvar i frysen, så jag tror banne mig att jag gör idag till en semeldag.

Semla = Swedish bun filled with marzipan and whipped cream 
These buns makes the Swedish cold and dark winter a little brighter
They are available mainly during January and Feburary
Special dedicated day for semlan is on the second Tuesday in February ( alot of history behind)
I prefer them homemade and many small rather then one big
My mamma Mi was here last week and baked the most amazing buns. There is still some left in the freezer and as it is a grey Tuesday today is the day we need a sweet juicy semla...

Weekly update 40/52 Autumn colors and cinnamon buns

Welcome October the most colorful month of the year. Yes we are going full steam towards the darker and colder part of the year, but I have to admit it is cosy and pretty with all the colorful leaves.  I don't know if it is a new thing to have theme days where a dish or something is being celebrated. I am guessing it is a capitalistic marketing great idea so companies can make more money like Valentine day. One of those days in Sweden is 4 of October when our national bakery Cinnamon bun is being honored. I got inspired! Some time ago I bought nice linnen tea-towels which I was planning to make some print/design on and when I got inspired by cinnamon bun I knew exactly what to make. I started scribbling and drawing buns on a big sheet. When I had one or two which I thought looked ok I transfered my bun drawing to my Cricut and had it cut out on iron-on vinyl. My mum is a master in baking buns and so I made a tea-towel/baking-towel in honor of not only cinnamon buns but of my mother...

Weekly update 41/52 Time for warmer hats, nice books and last garden projects

  October and week 41 and I have been making lots of new jersey hats with fleece lining. The weather is getting colder and colder and yes hat season is here. I will during the week add new fun warm hats in my web-shop. The hats will also be sold at Christmas markets here in Örebro.  New this year for me is that I am making baby hats since I got a lot of requests. I find it hard to make baby hats because they look so small, it is hard to remember how small babies are.  Also this week big happiness over at new book release from my favorite children book illustrator Sven Nordqvist. "Vägen Hem" a wonderful book with amazing illustrations.   I have also bought and planted some new plants inspired from some nice park arrangements here in Örebro. Now lets hope that all the deer in the forrest will not eat all of these, as I forgot to check wether or not these are tasty to them. In our country-house in the forrest they tend to come and eat everything they like and they ...
