Home sweet home





I went to visit my Grandma where there is horrible internet, but I am back.
Went for a run, and came upon this sunset. It's good to be home.

christmas eve dinner


Celebrated dinner with the family, Grandma flew in from Stavanger, so the five of us enjoyed Elio Altare's Larigi with our "stick meat" (pinnekjøtt). Stick meat is a traditional christmas eve dinner in Norway. Not my favorite, but the excellent wine made up for it. 
I love Christmas. It's so good to be home!
Merry Christmas!!

mayo the home made way


When I was in Italy this summer, I learned how to make Mayo from scratch. All you need are eggs and vegetable oil, and whatever flavor you want, and you mix it together. The trick is to have the right consistency, but that takes practice. 
So with our seafood dinner, we had home made mayo, along with a little blind tasting of white wines.

A new App!
I use Nike Running, and love it. But I was also looking for something to help me with my strength training as well. And Nike Training Club App does the trick!
I tried it today and LOVE it!
It is free on iTunes, and it has all kinds of work outs, with audio and video assistance.

Christmas Throwback.
Can't wait to spend some quality time with Aski Baski

davids tea



I discovered Davids Tea today. They have every tea possible. It was so much fun to browse, and they let you smell all the ones you want.
This cup I bought changes color when filled with warm water. The cup also comes with an infuser.

surprise visit





It was my brother's birthday a few weeks ago, and I decided to surprise him this weekend!
I took him to Otto, a Mario Batali restaurant and we had Ettore Germano! So good!
He then took me to a NYU party, and we met up with some kids from our high school. It was a good evening.
