Reminder to myself. Finish adding videos, photos to my Norwegian blog, then make it public.

For those reading this blog, I´ve changed this HGT (House Garden Travel) blog, that used to be a bit like my photoblog, by adding my Booklist to it. From now on I´ll be adding YT videos of my reading some of my books, including Garden, biographies, historical, etc. All the old WT and MP and stew booklists, and all the ages and ages I´ve wanted to upload my books and records onto YT....finally with all the changes recently, decided to give it a go. A little each week when time.
As it´s the start of a new garden season, will try to add info on gardening from some of my more obscure gardening books.
off finally to sleep, must be up early in the morn, am meeting friends for tea.
HAPPY MOTHER`S DAY today! and Happy Valentine´s Day this Thursday 14th!:)

On my cooking blog, I added the Mother´s Day supper recipes, including my ricotta chocolate cake, which is then topped with fig jam, and chocolate butter frosting. Usually, I might also cover this with a thin layer of marzipan, which is why I used the fig jam (see my Peter Rabbit cake for that type of version), but didn´t have time to. Glad I didn´t it was perfect without. Norwegian marzipan is much lighter in flavour than the typical English marzipan; as is Norwegian orange marmalade, which is also good in place of the fig jam.
Menu I made was a bit rushed and changed last minute due to time issues:
ribollito (over cous cous)
12 ziti with crushed tomatoes, artichokes, leeks
ricotta chocolate cake
iced tea, iced water
prosecco, cafe au lait, espresso
