Preparations and movies...

The apartment is sorta presentable. And I have done a couple of pretty cool LowCarbHighFat desserts. :-) (Yes, it is possible to do desserts without sugar or other carbohydrates in them.) To be fair one of them has a teeny tiny bit of sugar in it, so I won't eat much off it. It is a pear-pie, and it smells delcious so I have to try it. There is no flour in it though. :-) Then we made a panna cotta made from coconut milk and vanilla with some raspberries in it... GUH! Still, no sugar. The vanilla was the real deal, not that white fake stuff. So I bet that will taste awesome to.

Can't wait for tomorrow. So happy my brother could make it this year. He visited with is family 2009 for my birthday, but last year he couldn't... It is always me and peting73 that visits my family and relatives. It is quite seldom they come here. So to have my brother here tomorrow.... I can't wait. :-)

I have started to read up on my f-list again. Sorry that I have been so absent, but yeah... July is very busy for me, so hence. :-) I'll try and do better. *nods*

Me and spicehobbit has made plans to go watch Harry Potter on Friday and then go out for drinks. We'll see how that goes, since I am still on my diet, I am a ridiculous lightweight at the moment. It goes well right now though!




As seen. ;-)

Anyway, talking about movies. Some news on the movie Bilbo... Images of the dwarfs have been released... OMG! I wanna hug them all! So awesome! :-D Check these out:

HERE BE DWARFES!!!

That is all. :-D

i always use real vanilla, which presents a problem since it's so freaking expensive! i'm so glad they're coming over- i never thought about it but it's true, you're always posting about driving out and visiting them. and knowing you, ,i'm sure that the apartment is MORE than presentable :P


coconut milk is an awesome sugarless sweetener. not sure if this is high carb low fat, but agave nectar and rice syrup work well too.

Yeah, real vanilla ain't cheap, but the taste is soooo worth it. :-) I love it. And coconut milk... We use that A LOT! :-D We do this dish with chicken (that I suppose you could use something else), coconut milk, peanut butter and the extremely spicy paste Sambal oelek (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sambal_oelek).... and some thick cream, of course. ;-) And then we serve it with some vegetables. It is, in a word, DELICIOUS! :-D I highly recommend it. :-D

And it is true. We always go there, as soon as something go down or we are just to do a random gathering for the hell of it... We're the ones that are doing the trip. It is getting old. And old fast. :-P Sometimes I think part of my family and extended family just don't like cities or apartments... preferring houses and being on the countryside... Could be the reason why they have such problems coming here. :-P
