Fitness brownies;=)

Hi all and a very HAPPY FRIDAY!

So, yesterday I baked some fitness brownies and here´s the recipe if you wanna try them:

FITNESS BROWNIES:

First mix oats in a blender to smaller pieces. Then add 1,5 scoop of protein powder. I used Casein with chocolate taste but any powder is ok;=) Then add 1 tablespoon of cacao, 2 tablespoons of Stevia or other sugar substitute and 2 teaspoons of baking powder. 

Mix together 1/2 a banana with 1 tablespoon of natural crunchy peanut butter and 1 dl of almond milk or soy milk.

Then add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix together. Put in a form that has baking paper in it. 

Put into the oven at 175 degrees for appr. 10-15 minutes.

Frosting:

Take equal quantity of light philadelphia cheese and low fat quark. Mix together with vanilla powder (not vanilla sugar) and stevia or other sweetener.

When the cake has cooled off, cut into little cookies and add the frosting on top. Put in the fridge for a while before eating;=)

ENJOY!!

Got us a new chair;=)

I got a new chair for our home and today Johan picked it up at the furniture store with the beautiful and suitable name: MIO;=) 

The chair is so nice and can be pushed back all the way down to a lying position so I can sit and sleep with Mio in my arms while nursing. Great!;=)

Here´s my new "sheep" chair member! Called Wellness and it does feel like pure wellness sitting here now;=)

Tooth

I just bit half of my tooth off...doesn´t hurt but damn, now I have to go visit the dentist tomorrow. One of the things in life I really HATE;=(

Please think of me tomorrow at 9 in the morning when I will cry and sweat lying in that damn chair with the horrible bright light in my head...

I will need to think about happy thoughts, just like Peter Pan to cope;=)

Love life! (ehum...haha!)

....Tarja´s new album "Colours in the dark". 

I can say that if you like Tarja, go and get this album on august 30th. It´s really her best album so far, even if I like them all, but she has definitely found her own style and this album is really great! I especially like the beautiful choirs and her voice is just perfect in all the songs and the guitar sound is great!

Vacation

When everyone else has started their jobs again and kids has started school, Johan has his vacation. So we´re enjoying the lovely late summer days together and tomorrow we´re heading out for a road trip for some days in Sweden. We´re gonna visit my sisters summer house and also stay two days in Kolmården. Haven´t been there for years so I´m so longing to see all the new things they have and watch their famous dolphin show!!

Here you can read more about Kolmården:

I really enjoy the late summer and are looking forward to the autumn and most of all I look forward to the nice walks in the forest, buying autumn clothes and light candles every day again;=) I do not long for winter but autumn is my thing!

ENJOY this day now!

My new hair color;=)

Hi all,

I´ve ben busy but here´s some photos of my new hair color: dark with dip dye purple;=)

And here´s how it looks under my spotlight in the bathroom;=)

From our newspaper

Me and Johan were asked if we wanted to participate in an article in our local magazine Helsingborg´s Dagblad before our wedding, talking about why we chose the wedding music we did.

Here´s the article for you and here´s the translation of what we said in the article:

"Sweet music arises when we get married"

Text underneath the photo above: Organ is a wonderful instrument, says Anette Olsson who is getting married to Johan Husgafvel. Both are musicians.

The wedding. The day when you have the chance to decide and design everything. But what kind of music will it be? We have met two wedding couples who has chosen totally different music. 

The whole majestic Maria church in Helsingborg is filled with mighty tones from the big organ when organ player Mats Hultkvist are playing different versions of Beethoven´s Ode to joy. The couple, Anette Olsson and Johan Husgafvel are getting married and are meeting the organist of the church to hear how it will sound.

- Live music is really important since we both are musicians, says Anette Olsson.

She has for several years been the singer of the band Nightwish who plays symphonic metal and are now going for her solo career. Partner Johan Husgafvel is the bass player in the industrial metal band Pain.

They have chosen Ode to Joy from Beethoven´s ninth symphony as exit music. Totally different from what the couple are working with in their normal jobs.

- So I start where people recognize the melody and play that a couple of times. That sounds more "meaty", says Mats Hultkvist.

- Perfect. So we have time to hear some of it. Otherwise we´ll already be outside, says Anette Olsson.

As entry music, they´ve chosen Mendelssohn´s famous wedding march from A midsummers´dream

- Mendelssohn is typical wedding music and really lovely. Everything Beethoven has done is amazing, so it was an obvious choice for our exit music. If you get married in church it´s better to do it according to the church´s ways and respect that. Otherwise it´s better to go to Las Vegas, says Anette Olsson.

- If you´re going to be in this place it should be organ so it feels like a wedding, says Johan Husgafvel.

Music for a rainy saturday;=)

Hi all,

Today it´s a rainy saturday but no need to be gloomy - just listen to some great music! I´m going to buy myself some nice autumn clothes and light lots of candles and watch a movie later on. Maybe do a nice jogging trip in the afternoon;=) Life is good!

Here´s my rainy day playlist!

Some more wedding photos;=)

Hi all,

Got all the lovely photos from Annicka today and here´s some more so you can see the dress better;=)

Remember; copyright Annicka photography. Please state that if you use the photos.

The dress is made according to my measurements and I ordered it from this site Dreamprom. Great site, great prices and great dress! I had a petticoat underneath and then my dress, a hair band we bought from a sewery store, a flower brosch and the veil. I loved my dress and it was "huge"!

The flower in the front had some green in it.

My veil and my boots with stars from Mexicana. I didn´t want high heels and these were just so awesome!

My veil was in cathedral length and here you see it closer:

My dear BFF Linda made my hair and make up so beautiful! We put in extensions from RAPUNZEL 50 cm long in the color 10. Linda made a braid from my forehead on one side and down, then fastened the hair band with the flower and the veil underneath. 

My necklace was from Marni

Well, I had to do some fun gestures of course;=)

Our rings were carried by my eldest son Seth on this ring pillow

 Here you see us in the big Maria church (Mariakyrkan) next to where we live:

My dress were long and floated so nicely on the floor.

Me in the church. Ear rings were skulls;=)

Love the candelabra:

And then some more photos of us afterwards:

A

Hmmm... don´t know what Johan is looking at here below;=)

Annicka wanted us to do this "obscene" gesture and well, we had to oblige her, of course;=) 

Rock on dear ones;=)
