Hey peeps!
For a while now, I have been on a plateau followers-wise…
So I am now on Twitter!
Known to the world as Cindafuckingrel since my name is too long for the last “la”!
So, like the sailor told the nun – tell you friend about me and press “Like” on Facebook […]
The smell of lavender makes me close my eyes and dream that I am somewhere like here:
I do have some rather big lavender bushes in my small garden (as the nun told the sailor) and I have been wanting to make something of them. Seems a waste to […]
Remember horny?
Being soaking-wet, do-me-right-now horny? Remember fucking all night long? Being insatiable?
I’m at a place in my life where being really, really horny is something I look back at. And forward to. It happens occasionally. But really??… Rarely.
When I just met Hubby, then Boyfriend, I was so in love – and in […]
Chickpeas have a rather bland flavor, yet with a subtle underlying note of nutty-ness. This means that the little peas are very good at taking the flavour of something else.
Now, while the classic recipes for hummus calls for tahini (sesame paste) and often also Middle -Easterne spices such as cumin, I just go with […]
I just got back from a hike and I feel so good and healthy and filled with energy, that I simply have to share all this self-righteousness with you.
First, let me tell you a secret. Not many people know this and there is a multi-billion dollar industry of protein bars, special hiking equipment such […]

You need:
1 liter/ 1 quart heavy cream
50 grams/ 1.8 Oz vanilla sugar
300/ 10,5 Oz. grams […]
My oldest son is now 6 and ready to start school. And boy is he ready. I expect him to get a tattoo and take up smoking any day now. He is like a really cute, little obnoxious version of myself. I see God in his eyes, like I did when he was a baby. […]
I LOVE presents! I love the big ones, the small ones, the expected ones and especially the unexpected ones.
Flowers can be so romantic, jewelry is always welcome (me likee sparkly!) or that perfect shirt you didn’t know he knew you wanted. Or a jaw of something homemade, a drawing of a knight and his […]
Good Looooord!
I grew my own potatoes. Just threw a couple of potatoes (that I had forgotten in the back of a drawer and that I found all nice and sprouted!) in a bucket that I drilled 5-6 holes in for drainage. Sprouts turning up, I covered them with soil. Once a few beautiful green leaves […]
Yesterday, I passed a cherry tree bursting with produce. I was instantly set back 20 years, to a sunny afternoon in Bayview, Oregon, where I spent a lovely afternoon in a cherry tree with my soulmate, fellow-foodie and lovely friend, Abra. I missed her immensely at that moment, as I often do, and set out […]
I just got back from 4 days in the South of France. We did a lot of cooking and a lot of eating.
To get in the right mood, if you want, you can play this while you look at all the yumminess below:
