Here is the first recipe I used to start cooking from the book,
You want more, order the book. It all looks amazing!

Incredients.

Whip together egg whites, sugar, vinegar and vanilla.

Oil pan with oil---canola oil.

Until peaks form.

On the cooking sheet.

Make an edge.

Making custard.

Mix, mix and mix until thicker.

Like that.

Cover with wrap to keep the film from forming.

Whip cream to peaks.

After 2 1/2 hours + 1/2 hour without heat, take out your merinque.

Take out the cooled custard and for heaven´s sake at this point
hold your horses and don´t do like I did in my grazed sugar need.
You need to let the custard get warmer and mix.
Don´t just dump it on the whipped cream and start folding.....like I did.
You will end up with clumps!!!!!!!!

YA, clumps my friends, clumps! It was still very good, but after
all that time waiting.....clumps!!! Not cool :-I

Very cripsy, lemony, (clumpy) yummy stuff.

There, just an other one of my cooking triumphs.... Good recipe,
unpatient cook. :-D

Evening snackorooney, Ya, I would envy me too.

Tuna, that chick of the sea.

Last night we came home late from son´s Lacrosse practice.

Way past dinner time and I have not prepared anything in advance,
Why not You ask....well......I ....mmmmmm.....forgot?

So I slapped some bread on a cooking sheet.

Pulled out some tuna.

Cheese and aromisuola. (a kind of finnish style salt I love)

Everything in pile, top with pineapple.

Cheese. <3   In the owen on HOT 400F for a quick heat up.

Chop, chop some veggies to go...

Take bread out, sprinkle with suola/ salt and chives.

Chow!

"Even if you’re eating good food, you can still eat too much,” he said. “It comes down to excess calories, from too much food or too little exercise.”

(I would like to add that after 40 it get´s very hard to lose weight,
VERY HARD. I would also like to add  IT´S NOT FAIR!!!!! )

Favourite salad topping.

  

Hubby brought me flowers <3

My favourite salad topping..... Hot dogs!!!!! What else  ;-D

Fill your plate with salad.

Cut a glove of garlic.

Cook light hot dogs and beans on a skillet, add garlic.

Add little cream.

Pop all on top of salad. Garnish with tomato and chives.

So good, warm, salty, crunchy.....Yum!

Have a good day!
