Baking abroad

A while back I saw a cake recipe video in Facebook and because it didn't require an oven or ingredients that are very hard or impossible to get here, I decided to try it. It was a chocolate cheesecake so I just needed cream cheese, cookies, butter, sugar, chocolate and whipped cream. It also required vanilla which I couldn't get but luckily I got vanilla sugar from Finland so problem solved. I couldn't do the whipped cream myself so I bought already made whipped cream from the store. I had most of the ingredients for many weeks but because last month I wasn't at home during any weekend, I couldn't do it until last weekend. But it was worth the wait! Although I was a bit worried how it will turn out (because I don't usually have good luck with my cooking) , everything went surprisingly well and the cake tastes very good. Fortunately my first time baking a cake abroad was a success. I have seen a few other interesting recipes in those Tasty videos and I will defi...

Seoul, South-Korea 19.-30.12.2014 ♥

Early last year, me and my mum decided we would go to Seoul and spend our Christmas there. That way we would avoid all the craziness that Christmas brings at home.  Right after our trip, I thought it was a very good idea!  I got to do something that I love very much: shopping :D  At the same time I got to spend time with my mum which is always very nice. I also got to experience Christmas in somewhere else than in Finland and that was an interesting change.  There were a lot of nice Christmas lights, decorations and Christmas trees near our apartment and all over in Seoul. We could also hear Christmas songs when we walked outside. Of course the food that we ate on Christmas Eve was way different than usually but still it was good. So in the end it wasn't so bad spending the Christmas there :) That's good because I won't probably spend the next one in Finland either... So we spent 10 days in Seoul and we had rented an apartment from the Airbnb website....

Greetings from Seoul!

Here we are in the heart of K-Pop ♥ So far everything has gone well although I have been quite tired and worried about Otto. Before we took Otto to his "nanny", we had to take him to the vet :( 2 of his remaining teeth (4 total) were hurting and he didn't want to eat etc.  But we got some antibiotics and pain killers for him so he will be okay during our trip.  We also booked an appointment for the beginning of next month. Then we will take the rest of his teeth out and also do a blood test and a full examination.  I know his "nanny" is very capable and nice so he's in good hands and has the medication but still I feel a bit down and worried.  Our flight from Helsinki to here went very well  because we got in to Business Class free of charge!  It was such a nice surprise and "Christmas present" :D  Thank you Finnair! We should definitely fly to Seoul often because this was already the second time for my mum to get in t...
