Crocheting

I got some homespun wool from my Mam, who is making a knitted/crocheted patchwork. Only problem is that she doesn't crochet herself, so she has asked me to make a few patches :) Great small weekend project. 

Eg fekk overlevert heimespunna ull fra mamma før helga. Ho strikker/hekler seg eit lappeteppe. Einaste problemet er at ho ikkje hekler sjølv, så då har ho spurt meg om eg kan hjelpe ho å lage noken lapper. Super helgesyssel :)

Otherwise winter is here, and the weatherforcast for this week is sunny and very cold. LOVE IT!!! 

Ellers er vinteren her, og værmeldinga for neste veke er sol og veldig kaldt. Hææærlig!!

Blog trouble!

It's nice to see that so many if you find your way to my blog. I have realized that it's not the easiest task to leave comments on here. And it would be nice to get a hello once in a while, haha. 

From my understanding it's the network readers, explorer/Firefox/safari etc. that sometimes doesn't allow you to post comments. I use explorer and safari, and they both work fine. So maybe try to change your reader, and hopefully it works. And then send me a msg :)

Does anyone else know anything about this problem??

Kjekt å sjå at så mange finn vegen innom bloggen min. Men eg har etterkvart skjønt at det ikkje er like lett å legge inn kommentarer her. 

Sånn eg har forstått det, så kan det være nokon av nettlesarane (dvs. Internett Explorer/Firefox/Safari/Opera/Chrome osv) som ikkje tillater å kommentere. Eg bruker Explorer og Safari, og begge dei fungerer fint. Så hvis du endrar lesar, og sender meg eit pip, så hadde det vært kjekt :)

Er det andre som kjenner til dette problemet?

Until next time ;)

Odessa lue!

Annika is very pleased with her Odessa knitted hat. 

This was pretty easy to knit, but looks imressive. Right? Some put pearls in the rows, and I have made that on a different hat, but I don't have pictures of that one.

Heimelaga knekkebrød til kvelds. 

Fresh very healthy and homemade crispbread, I think I am eating a couple of these with butter and cheese on for supper tonight...yummy :)

New Year, new beginnings.

We were planning on keeping Christmas decorations up until after the weekend, however my sister-in-law surprised me with new (to me) curtains, which I love!! And before we knew it, we were up, ready and putting christmas back in the boxes ;) 

Christmas 2013

It's always so empty, but neet and clean when all the reds, golds and lights gone. 

Vi hadde i grunn planlagt at jula skulle få vare til etter helga, men då svigerinna mi overraska meg med nye (for meg) gardiner i ettermiddag, var vi plutselig i gang :) 

Merkelig kor tomt det blir uten julefarger og pynt, men veldig deilig òg :)

New Years resolutions!

Happy New Years everyone. I hope you have all started his year great. We celebrated with parents/grandparents yesterday and had a great time. 

Godt nyttår alle ihop. Håper starten og forventningene til eit nytt år er skyhøge. Vi feira nyttårsafta med foreldre/besteforeldre og kosa oss masse.

Great saying

I have never been one for New Yers resolutions, and I don't really like it. But (call it n.y resol if you want) I am making some changes in 2014.

My plan is:

1. Limit time on the iPad/phone 

2. Knit more 

3. Eat healthier...no dieting, just eating better and healthier. Hoping to get more energy for example. 

4. Sew more

5. In connection with nr. 3, I am going to bake/cook more homemade foods.

6. Did I mention knit/sew more?? 

And I am hoping that writing it down for everyone to see, will help me stick to my plan :k) what do you think?

What are your New Years resolutions?

Homemade crispbread

Eg pleier ikkje å ha nyttårs forsett, og trur egentlig ikkje på at dei fungerer, men (kall det det hvis du vil) i år skal eg i allefall gjere eit par endringa i livet mitt. 

Dei er: 

1. Bruke IPad/telefon mindre.

2. Strikke meir.

3. Ete sunnare..ikkje slanking, berre generelt ete bedre og sunnare. Kanskje få litt meir energi?  

4. Sy meir.

5. Pga nr.3, så vil eg bake/lage meir heimelaga mat. 

6. Nevnte eg strikke og sy meir?

Eg håper jo egentlig at ved å skrive det ned for alle å sjå, så er sjangsen for at eg gjer dette større :-P Ka trur deke?

Kva er ditt nyttårsforsett?
