Weekend.

I didn't have the time to blog this weekend as my sister came for a visit, which was a lot of fun. We baked pizza, watched movies, went to Malmö for some shopping, went to the cinema, partied, went for walks, had Indian food and looked at pictures. A very pleasant weekend.

I thought I'd share some pictures with you.


In Malmö - I need sunglasses because I can't keep my eyes open when it's so bright.


My sister next to the city tower here in Helsingborg.




Do you think I could be hired as a guard?



Indian food is so, so delicious.




I also have a question for you. I changed the font on my blog last night, but I can't see it on the computer I am using at work (now), but I could at home on my own computer. Do you see it (a handwriting-like font), or does it look the same as before?

Cinnamon rolls.

I made some delicious vegan cinnamon rolls yesterday, and now they're all eaten up.


(before they were baked)

Here is the recipe in case any of you would like to make some.

125 grams of vegetable margarine
2,5 deciliters of soya milk
25 grams of yeast
0,5 deciliters of raw cane sugar
9 deciliters of spelt flour (I usually let half the amount be full grain spelt)

cinnamon, vegetable margarine and sugar for the filling.

1. Melt the margarine in a pot, and add the milk when melted.
2. Add the liquid to the yeast, which you've crumbled. Mix well.
3. Add the sugar, and the flour and mix. Knead the dough.
4. Let the dough rise for about an hour.
5. Divide the dough in two and roll it out with a rolling pin.



6. Smear butter and strew cinnamon and sugar onto the dough.
7. Start rolling it together on the longest side, and then cut into 4 cm rolls with a knife.
8. Put the rolls on a baking paper and let rest for a few minutes. At the same time, put the oven on 200 degrees C.
9. Bake for around 12 minutes, and voilà!

Of course, if you don't want to make vegan cinnamon rolls, the soya milk and vegetable margarine can be replaced with ordinary milk and margarine. The same goes for the sugar and the flour - use white, refined sugar and white wheat flour if you want!


(There is something wrong with my camera, which is why these pictures aren't the best. For some reason the image doesn't show on the camera screen when I take pictures - but it does show when I click to view it. So frustrating.)

Red, white and an umbrella.

On Sunday I dressed up in some of the new clothes that I bought last week and took these photos. Because it was raining it wasn't initially such a good day for taking photographs, but I really like the darkish and gloomy shade the weather caused them to have.

Blouse from H&M, skirt from Gina Tricot, tights from Noa Noa, wedges from Din Sko, hair band from Kanel and umbrella from Tiger.

Saturday night's outfit.

I had so much fun last night. I rarely go out partying because I never really have the time - I had almost forgotten how amazing it is to dance the night away. Do you often go out partying/dancing etc.?

This is what I wore, nonetheless. I changed my mind about that bow in case you're wondering why I'm wearing it in one picture and not in the others.

To all of you who are wondering why I am not wearing any shoes: Over here we don't wear shoes inside... I wore some oxford lace ups when we went out later on.




Leotard; Gina Tricot, shorts; Tjallamalla, tights Noa Noa.

Pretty clothes on ebay.

Since I already spend so much time on ebay looking for cute vintage clothing, and because I neither have the means nor the need to buy everything I come across for myself, I thought I could perhaps show you some lovely things I've come across that maybe someone else would like to get.


Such a darling little dress, found here.


I love the fact that this one is so whimsical!


Isn't this one just wonderful?


The most adorable sailor playsuit, found here.


I thought this one was so, so sweet. Perhaps because Annie is one of my favourite films?


Oh, and this one is really cute, too, with an Indian print.

Shopping in Malmö.

I finished teaching rather early today and decided to go to Malmö to see the city and go shopping a little bit (which ended up being more than a little bit...), and I have to say that I prefer it so much more over Copenhagen. Malmö seems to have a much bigger variety, uniqueness and to be cheaper - which is strange as Copenhagen is a lot bigger. Or maybe I just wasn't lucky when I went to Copenhagen. Still, I am going to try to persuade my sister to go to Malmö with me instead of Copenhagen when she comes here in a little more than a week.
Anyway, here is what I bought;


This extremely adorable blouse at H&M. I had no choice but to buy it - it was one of those times when you feel love at first sight - and then I always get it because I know I will not regret it.


A skirt from H&M trend. I think this will be just perfect for spring and summer. One thing that struck me about it is that the colours in it remind me so much of the recent Lula (which I had to buy since it doesn't seem to be coming even though I have a subscription).


Another skirt from Gina Tricot. I love the colour and the cut of it!


And these wonderful high waisted shorts at Tjallamalla. They are a little slouchy, but tight at the waist and around the legs. I love them.


Oh, and I also got a see-through umbrella! I needed a new umbrella, and this one was really cheap, and I like the fact that it's see-through.


I also happened to run into Elin from 'Elinkan' while I was there. She was as sweet and adorable as ever!

Sunday's outfit.

This is what I wore yesterday, on my way to do some grocery shopping.



Coat: Thomas Burberry, white blouse and skirt: H&M, navy vest: Zara, belt: Cala, socks: Vero Moda, patent ballerinas: Benetton.

Monkey.

I saw the most adorable (and yet sort of scary-looking) little monkey yesterday when I went to a sort of indoor zoo (I don't know if I would actually even call it a zoo, but there were a few animals there at least) with some friends. The funny thing is that it wasn't even in a cage, and I was tempted to put it in my bag and take it with me. It probably would have scratched and bit me if I did!
 

Here are some other pictures from there that I thought I'd share!

Me with some lemurs in the background.



A shark and a lot of pretty coloured fish.

Did you do anything fun this weekend?
