Treat yo’ self… 13. October 2017

Coffee and an apple. I didn’t eat the lemon yoghurt cream, because the texture was weirdly liquid and the taste weird.

I decided I needed a treat after my work week, so I went to Gelato Ladies and got myself a scoop of chocolate ice cream and their Halloween special black ice cream :p People looked at me weird, when I walked around eating black ice cream xD

Treats continue: a small pastry from RØST. It looked so good, but it was too sweet for me 😦

Even more treats: a sourdough sandwich with salmon also from RØST. I love their bread.

Oven baked pumpkin and potatoes with some sour cream and a side of sliced cucumber.

Lehe Ravnodenstvie BA Russian Imperial Stout. This was a super intense flavour bomb. Loved it! It was a good company to the nightmare rift run we did with my guild in Rift 🙂

At the lake… 24. September 2017

Coffee and several sandwiches with butter and honey

Porridge

Leftover chicken and veggies from the day before, some sült and tomato-cucumber salad

Coffee and a breakfast burrito (egg, bacon, potatoes) I shared with my bf

In the morning we helped Agu and Liia to set up a new corral for their cows and then move them to their new corral. Afterwards we went down to a lake. The others went out on a boat and tried to catch some fish. I stayed on the bridge, because I don’t feel comfortable with people swishing around fishing hooks near me :p It was so nice, warm and calm. It was such a shame we had to drive back to Tallinn. I would have loved to have spent another couple of days at the country side.

There was water in the boat

Sunlight

Spiderwebs

A water lily

People fishing :p

Forest magic

Grasshopper on a log

Brownie quark

Rye bread and cheese sausage

Boiled potatoes, sausage sauce, some salad with marinated garlic

Apple-lingonberry crumble with vanilla ice cream

Sometimes the most mundane and boring days are the best ones. I had a day off work, so I caught up on some chores I had been neglecting while busy. I washed the dishes, boyfriend vacuumed the floors, we took out garbage to recycling. I did laundry and fixed the pocket of my parka. I wrote two blog posts and edited some photos for our café facebook page. Took a nap and had a shower afterwards. I drank hot cups of coffee and listened to podcasts. I cooked proper dinner. I was really content and happy.

Therapy… 4. September 2017

Two cucumber sandwiches for breakfast

A milk chocolate trilobite that I got from the Estonian Museum of Natural History a while ago. Finally decided to eat the cute thing :p

An apple and some cardamom biscuits

Tomato soup with black rice, quinoa and sour cream; two sandwiches with cucumber, tomato and some ham

Teekanne Lemon Cake tea and a sandwich with crunchy peanut butter. I am not a big fan of that particular tea, but I am a sucker for odd things and want to try weird flavours, so this is why I got it initially. The lemony flavour of it is okay, but there is another flavour nuance next to it that makes it taste off for me. Perhaps it’s the cake part of the tea that I don’t like xD

So, I am going to therapy now. Once a week for the foreseeable future. So far it doesn’t feel any different than going to a psychologist, but then again, I think the therapist is still getting to know me. We’ll see how it goes.

More festival food… 3. September 2017

Breakfast: a cucumber sandwich, butter-honey sandwich and a sammich with Nutella.

I went to the Uue Maailma Festival again, because I wanted to get my boyfriend one of these amazing profiteroles as well. Since I was already there I decided to get another churro, because they are delicious and you can’t get them anytime.

I wanted to buy one churro, but got two, because they offered me one for free xD Yay! It’s good to have friends in high places :p

Deep fried sprats. I am usually not very fond of sprats, but served this way, they were quite tasty if only a bit too oily.

Dinner: tomato soup with black rice, quinoa and sour cream + a slice of bread I got from the festival.

I got myself another lush pastry cream filled profiterole as well, because good food makes life worth living. Good food also makes you fat, but eh…

I also got my boyfriend a couple of bottles of Seto Kali, because it’s naturally fermented, tastes great and you also can’t get it from many places. For myself, I bought a wolf bone pendant that you can see here if you are interested.
