Venice

I took some time off from work to, well, work on other stuff. But then I thought, might as well use the time for something fun too. So we spontaneously took the night-train to Venice – and voilà, fell asleep in Austria, woke up in Venice. I’ve never been to Venice before but always thought it looked spectacular in photos. I haven’t changed my mind on that – but in real life every single tourist on the planet seems to be somewhere in those narrow streets! All the worst souveniers? Find them in Venice. And those cruise ships. I’ve never seen such a thing in real life, they are like gigantic cities of themselves.

After some time we figured out that for some reason most people squeeze themselves through the most crowded streets and there are in fact less crowded streets, thankfully. So after this big revelation we had a lovely time! :)

Cardamom Blueberry Dreams

I made this cake from Linda Lomelinos cookbook „Lomelinos tårtor“ for a friends birthday. I cannot recommend this book (or her blog) enough. I'm very picky when it comes to food photography – but she’s one of my favourites! I was a bit skeptical about cardamom in the dough – but apparently blueberries and cardamom go together heavenly! I kept pretty much to the recipe, apart from making it in double-size so everyone could get a slice and decorated it a bit differently. More berry – more merry! ;)
