Bagels!

I tried to do bagels during the christmas break, it went ok. I didn't know that you boiled the dough? But that part worked pretty good, the dough was suppose to rise a bit more though. I made them with my favorite seeds, sesame:). I think that I will try it once more pretty soon, and maybe ad some more yeast... Well, the flour here in Berlin is not what it's suppose to be...so maybe I'm going to do really well with the bagel dough:). 

I'll see if I can find an english recipe to post here, I did mine from a recipe in Svenska Dagbladet.

Wake up, kick ass, repeat

2015, here we go!

I got this fantastic poster from my lovely friend, and actually also colleague:)! We have a new project that we work on with our firm, so the information on the poster is very much a must at the moment.arvid&olof

So, lets start the new year! I'm going to be writing posts three times a week to start out with, the fall was not that organized so the posts came really close or not close enough... I'm very much looking forward to the spring....I will start my indoor garden here in Berlin:):), and then in April move it to Sweden. I also have some nice sewing and kitting projects, can't wait. I will also se if I can manage to get the sourdough to work with me...took a new jar with me from my mom when I was home for christmas, I also have some new fancy Italian flour that I'm going to try out:)

Happy Monday!

Long and gray day in Berlin

Today is very gray in Berlin, haven't seen anything like it really....and I'm from the west coast of Sweden. I'm a bit in a "under the weather" kind of a mood, need to sheer me up some how. One of my best friends is coming to visit me tonight!! She is staying for a few days and I'm really looking forward to it, we have lots of things to talk about! But in the mean time I have to do fun stuff to pull me up, a new sourdough ground and bake cookies is on the agenda I think. I'm still not happy about how my sourdough bread turn out, I'm trying a new type of flour and hoping for that to be the solution:). I also thinking a lot about an office that a friend and I are planning to start up, very exciting! We have found a great location but need to get a hold of the realtor, I keep my fingers crossed that it's still available! 

So, this foggy and misty day, my thoughts wonder off to the spring and a very much wanted trip to NYC and this exhibition MOMA
