The joys of sleeping in on a weekend. I had my alarm set for 08:00, but we
didn't wake up until almost 10:00. Didn't have time to do yoga or walk since we
had to get ready to leave to the town market/fair thing. Don't really know what
to call it in English, but it's called a Marknad here.
Marknads are evil
things I tell you. All sorts of handmade yummy things everywhere. Also only time
you can get them is when Marknad comes to town. We went there to get my OH's
favorite nougats, to me they're just flavoured sugarcubes since they're so
sweet We picked up a kilo of his
nougats, picked up some wild boar sausage, elk(moose) sausage, reindeer sausage
and beer sausage. Also before we left my guy had to get a thing of Swiss
almonds. Basically candied almonds, freshly roasted, and it's so good. I ate a
good handful of them. Thank goodness it only comes to town once a year, or else
imagine how big everyone in town's waistline would get.
I turned down
pizza tonight. Yippie! I thought my guy was going to make dinner, and my guy
thought I was going to make dinner. So I knew he was talking about me making
homemade mac and cheese since I bought some shredded chedder cheese, ala
Amercian style. The other day at the store we found cappelli pasta made from 55%
whole grain spelt flour and 45% durum, it was one of those high fiber pastas. I
made a baked mac and cheese(cappelli and cheese), and it was a success. It's
really nice finding new ways to make our normal favorites into low GI favorites
