I´m on a seafood diet,

I see food and I eat it.

/Unknown

Ett av de allra bästa sätten att göra vintern lite kortare och längtan efter våren lite lättare att härda ut, är att njuta av hembakade semlor. Få saker sprider en känsla av lycka som just semlor. Döttrarna bakade en dubbelsats i början av januari och de är redan uppätna, så det är definitivt dags att baka nya. ☺ Här hittar du ett ruskigt gott och enkelt recept. Definitivt värt att prova!

If your girlfriend seems to be in a bad mood for no reason,

get her something to eat.
