on the mend

We are slowly recovering, this was one bad bug. Sorry for so little posting at the moment...and it will get worse....because I learned this week that I will have to move for a while to my parents to look after my sisters crazy dog, while she is gone.
So for a couple of weeks I will vanish from the internet....but stay tuned because I will be back!!

Just wanted to share this link

This week there wont be a WIWW-like post, as we all didn't get out of our Jammies today, we are still down with that bad bad flu...
But instead I thought I will share this you-tube link with you guys that we stumbled upon, it contains so much truth but still made us laugh that much.

BZZZZZZZZZ ;-)

Sauerkraut Soup

Right now, we are trying to fight off a horrible flu, that the wee man brought us home as a birthday gift for himself and others to share. So a Sauerkraut Soup seemed to be in order!!!

This is easy and fast and so perfect when you feel rotten.

You need:
1 clove of garlic, 
6 spring onions and
6 very small diced spuds. You fry the whole lot in about
3 Tblsp. of Oil.
add about
3/4 cups of soaked minced Soya.  Once the Soya is well fried (does not need long so watch it doesnt burn!) add about
half a litre of veg stock and
400 gr of chopped tomatoes (I used cocktail tomatoes because I like the sweet taste) and
1 chopped red pepper.
Boil until potatoe pieces are done
then add about
500 gr of ready made sauerkraut (I prefer the mild one with wine) bring to boil, add
caraway seeds (2-3 tsp.)
paprika,
black pepper and
tabasco and
some fresh cream (depending how creamy you like 1/2 to 1  cup)
The whole lot lasted us for 2 days so it is either for 2 people and 2 days or 4 people on one evening.

Enjoy, and stay away from those summer flu bugs!

What I(an) wore last Wednesday

First things first: the History!

Secondly: Sorry this post is coming very late, but we had a rough week here, I made the photos last Wednesday, just never got to write the actual post.

It was laundry day, so in the end he kinda looked like a striped zebra ;-).

I got pretty much everything on the second-hand baby markets.

So I hope you managed to find something nice to wear for your little ones last week?

What I(an) wore Wednesday

And here comes Wednesday again....wow, this week just flew by!

For the history of this Post, click here.

Here it is rather cold, and it is one of those days where before reaching the 10 o'clock mark we were already in the second outfit..I guess if your a mum yourself you need no further explanation, and if your not... I 'll spare you the details ;-)

So here we go:

"I am a scary little Monster"-Shirt that we bought in a second hand shop in Australia (I just couldn't resist, as he loves putting a deep voice and pretends he is a lil' monster) and some sweatpants, love the colour! Check out the socks, they are crawler socks. The rubber is also on top! They are amazing!

 Kermit shirt from H&M and "ugly" sweat pants  after the Incident ;-)

So what did your little munchkins get to wear this week? Link them up below! I would love to see them.

What I(an) wore Wednesday

Hello again,
If you wanna know where the Idea for this came from, check here.

Today it is rather hot, so I choose some lighter clothes:

 I just love those pants, they have whales on them and some blow water :-)

Shirt is H&M and I can't remember where the pants came from...no spiderman socks today...to warm...

This made me laugh, he managed to get a hold of the phone, and he knows he isn't allowed to play with it :-)

The remote...just as 'forbidden' as the phone....I just don't know how much baby slobber they can handle ;-)

So what did your little munchkins get to wear this week? Just link them up in the comments below.

Carrot Burgers with Thai dip

You need:
500gr /1 lbs. of carrots, grated. Add
1 egg, beaten and
2 tbsp flour and
salt and
3 tbsp sesame seeds. Mix well and let rest for at least 10 minutes.

For the Thai dip take:
half a pack of yoghurt and
half a pack of either creme fraîche or sour cream. Mix well and add
2 tbsp of Thai seasoning paste and mix.

Now heat pan with about
3 tbsp of sesame oil and fry your burgers until cross from both sides. Be careful when turning them, they are a little fragile.

We served these with a side salad and some garlic bread.

Enjoy!
