Sunday, and sun is shining

Wow,it’s sunday allready,hard to believe. The weekend has gone so fast…..maybe because I’ve been having a good time,relaxing and talking to friends. Friends is a good thing,they lift you up when you are down,and they enjoy life with you when you are happy. New friendships is also nice,and always a little scary because you never know what you will find,but if you are willing to take a chance you can end up with an even richer life than you had before.

I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend so far. Enjoy this day,and spend time with friends and family or just take time to enjoy life as it is.

English

Ingredients:
1 liter of milk
300 g butter
250 g powdered sugar
100 g of yeast (fresh)
1.5 kg flour
0.5 tsp cardamom
Procedure:
Boil milk, butter and powdered sugar, important to let it simmer as this allows the liquid to be creamy and thick! = Airy buns!
Cool the mixture until it is finger-warm (37 ° C) in cold water in the sink
Stir the yeast into the liquid. Mix in the cardamom and flour.
Knead the dough until it is smooth.
Roll out the buns at once (about 40 pieces) and place them on greaseproof paper on the griddles.
Let them raise in a warm place for 1 hour.

Bake the buns in the middle of the oven at 225 ° C for 7-10 min.
Allow to cool. Have some powdered sugar on before serving if you want.
Can also be used for school buns etc, one can have custard inside and more! The imagination that stops!

Norwegian

Ingredienser:

1 liter melk

300 g smør

250 g melis

100 g gjær (fersk)

1,5 kg hvetemel

0,5 ts kardemomme

Fremgangsmåte:

Kok opp melk, smør og melis, viktig med oppkok da dette gjør at væsken blir kremig og tykkere! = luftigere boller!

Avkjøl blandingen til den er fingervarm (37°C) i kaldt vann i vasken

Rør gjæren ut i væsken. Bland i kardemomme og hvetemel.

Elt deigen til den er smidig.

Trill ut bollene med en gang (ca 45 stk) og legg dem på bakepapirdekkede stekeplater.

La dem heve lunt i 1 time.

Stek bollene midt i ovnen ved 250°C i 7-10 min.

Avkjøl. Sikt over melis før servering.

Kan også brukes til skoleboller, fastelavensboller, man kan ha vaniljekrem inni osv! Fantasien som stopper!

The scary 40…..

This weekend I turned the big 40……what’s all the fuss about that number? I don’t get it, I don’t feel any different…..like they say,age is just a number. Ok,maybe a few things happening to the body or something but,helloooo…….a good win improves with age….
On friday my family was here,it was really nice. On saturday I had a few girlfriends over for tapas. Was a really nice evening,with a lot of good food……and a lot of good talk and fun watching mgp. We did not mean to watch it,but we just ended up doing it….
