Some of my favorite songs at the moment..

Angels watching over me…..

The last few days I’ve been feeling under the weather,hurting all over and fever. Today I had to pick up my son from boarding school because he is sick too,and as I drove to pick him up I was struggling to keep my eyes open. Was feeling so tired and my eyes was burning…….and suddenly I opened my eyes and I saw me and my car turning over to the other side of the road…….and cars came towards me…….thank God I “woke up” before I hit the other cars. I stoped the car at the closest posible place,put my carseat down,the timer on 20 minutes and my eyes closed……. This really scared me, only halv a second more and I would not be sitting in my own home right now…….

Have a really nice evening and take care of eachother….

Shopping….

Yeah,I know,it’s easter……but the mall was open today…… I met my good friend Aina for a little windowshopping,coffee and talk. Ofcourse,I did not get home emptyhanded…..

Well,I’m happy,but my wallet is not happy at all…..

While I was out,one of my nephews came to visit my son……it’s a sleepover,right now they are sitting here with a pc each and playing. Later this evening I will make homemade pizza for us.

Have a really nice afternoon/evening…

So far

A few days holiday, it’s easter and I have time to do exactly what I want. I have time to relax and save up some energy, and I have time to spend with my teenager.

The few days so far, I have had time to do things I like to do. I’ve baked……

…… and I’ve moved things around….

Hmmmmm…..maybe I have enough coffee for the easter….?

These things has been moved from the livingroom and into the kitchen…… it’s better to have these cups here because here’s were the coffee is made…..

…..and ofcourse I’ve had time for a few of these things…………….

Well, I wish you all happy easter. Enjoy these few days with your family and friends….

Nice day…

 

Im enjoying a good cup of coffee after work. The day has been ok…..not so many kids, so it was a little more relaxing than we are used to have. I even got time to make buns for all the kids and adults… More than 80 buns….!!

Mmmmmm….really good!

Have a really nice evening, enjoy and take care…

What are we……???

Lately there has been a discussion about whether we who are trained preschoolteacher and work in day care centers should be called preschool teacher, teacher or nursery teacher. The result is most likely nursery teacher, although this proposal has received the least votes. When I heard the name nursery teacher, I got the chills. I automatically thought back at the time when anyone who worked in the nursery was called kindergarten aunt. Kindergarten Aunt has a demeaning tone, I think, and certainly don’t give us the respect that I think we deserve. Still there are people who look at us as kindergarten aunt because they linger in the old term. A kindergarten aunt was previously working in the nursery as a storage place for the children. Today, it is not so. Working in day care is certainly not relaxing. We want to ensure that children receive the right care and the proper development and learning. It requires us to teach children respect, appropriate language, interaction, social competence, compassion, motor development. Working as a preschool teacher requires 3 years of education at college, and I can tell you that it is not just a picnic. Many people still believes that working in day care center is the eassiest thing to do, that we “just” look after the children. I challenge those who believe this to work in a nursery for 1 week, then you can come back to me and tell me if you still mean that we "just" watch the cute little ones, or if it is a demanding job. I think that the term pre-school teacher or educator is best for us with this education. We work with children of preschool age, thus fits the best. So what the result will be remains to be seen. What do you think?

Great day….

Despite that I had to get up early,it was a great day….. It’s sunday,and most sundays I usually stay in bed to 10 or 11…..but today I had to get up at 6.45….yeah…..! It was parents meating and conference at my son’s school. As some of you know he goes to a boarding school,so he does not live with me at the moment. After the parent conference my son and I went for a drive,and we ended up having lunch at an old place that was a favorite when I was his age…..mmmmmmm
       

                         

Thanks son,for a nice lunchtime. Always nice to see you <3

Don’t worry,be happy….

Ok,I know……It’s been a while since I was here…..but hey,I have a life actually…..

I’ve started work fulltime again after my sickleave,and it’s nice to work. Don’t get me wrong,I get tired and I have pain in my leg every day,but it’s nice to have something to do.

Today I was out meeting my good friend Aina. It’s always nice to meet her. We always have something to talk about,and we always enjoy good coffee and a good talk.

Can you believe it,we’re gotten as far as march 10……. It’s crazy how fast time flies when you’re having fun .

Now a days I’m checking the travel agencys for flights for me and my good friend Tove. Last year we went to Alanya together for 2 weeks,

and we want to do the same this year. So we have decided when to go and where to live,now it’s only flight tickets missing….can’t wait. If time flies like it has done to now,the holiday will come really soon.

Have a really nice evening,and enjoy life…..

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.

250 g powdered sugar
100 g of yeast (fresh)

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.

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!

            

Have a really nice friday evening everyone….
