Valentines day cupcakes!

I saw these on Tidymom and I fell in love! these are so cute to serve and you can truly express your love for someone with these!!

I change the recipe a little bit, here is the recipe in Icelandic, you can get the recipe in English on Tidymoms page :)







Súkkulaði Fudge Bollakökur með Jarðaberja
og Rjóma Fyllingu og Súkkulaðirjómaosta Kremi
Súkkulaði Fudge Bollakökur
Innihald
Ca. 24 stk.

1 pk. Djöflatertu kökumix
1 pk. Súkkulaðibúðingur (aðeins innihaldið)
1 dós sýrður rjómi
1 bolli olía
4 létthrærð egg
½ bolli heitt vatn

Aðferð:
Bakið við
180°c
Bökunartími
15-20 mín.
Blandið
innihaldinu öllu saman við (röðin skiptir ekki máli).
Setjið í
bollakökuform og bakið.


Jarðaberja Rjóma Fylling
1 bolli rjómi
1/3 bolli sykur
1 tsk. vanilludropar
6 msk. maukuð jarðaber (ca. 5-6 meðalstór jarðaber)


Skerið niður jarðaberin og settu í blandara þangað til þau verða þykkum
mauk.

Þeyttu saman rjómann og vanilludropa saman þangað til rjóminn er orðin ágætlega vel þeyttur, bættu þá sykrinum saman við og hrærðu örlítið til viðbótar. Bættu jarðaberjamaukinu saman við.

Súkkulaði Rjómaostakrem
115
gr. smjör við stofuhita
225
gr. rjómaostur við stofuhita
2
tsk. Vanilludropar
60
gr. kakó
440
gr. flórsykur
1-4
msk. rjómi


Aðferð


1. Settu smjörið í skál og hrærðu vel, bættu rjómaostinum saman við og hrærðu þangað til smjörið og rjómaosturinn hafa blandast vel saman.

2. Bættu kakóinu saman við (áður en þú blandar flórsykrinum saman við svo það blandis vel saman við).

3. Bættu við vanilludropum og flórsýkri og blandaðu vel saman. Hrærðu svo í smá stund á miklum hraða eða þangað til kremið verður smá fluffy.

4. Bættu við rjómanum, smá og smá í einu eða þangað til þú ert sátt við þykkt og áferð kremsins, ekki nauðsynlegt nota 4 tks. rjóma.

5. Settu kremið beint á. Kremið geymist þó inn í kæli í nokkra daga, en þá er nauðsynlet hræara það aftur áður en það er sett á kökurnar.

Aðferð til þess gera Súkkulaði Fudge bollakökur með jarðaberja og rjóma fyllingu með súkkulaðirjómaosta kremi


1. Settu degið í bollakökuform og
bakaðu í ca. 15 til 20 mín. Láttu þær
kólna alveg.

2. Skerðu úr bollakökunni smá holu í miðjunni ég nota stundum stóran sprautustút til þess gera holu fyrir fyllingu. Geymdu það sem þú skefur úr í skál.

3. Settu jarðaberjarjóma fyllinguna ofan í holuna.

4. Settu svo ofan á fyllinguna kökuna sem þú skart úr (þó ekki nauðsynlegt).

5. Settu súkkulaðirjómaosta kremið ofan á kökurnar (ég nota 1M sprautustút).

Njótið!

My child is not a downs-child!

I don't know what it is, but I cant stand when people talk about kids with special needs or with a disability like the ADHD kid or the downs kid.....Kristofer is not a downs kid! He is just a normal kid with down syndrome. And here in Iceland people call them downsara, I mean what is that?? I don't know why this get´s so on my nerves but it gets under my skin and makes me want to scream!

I was at a meeting about Kristofer today and I was told that Kristofer has down syndrome like 10 times in these 45 minutes and in every other sentence....I know he has down syndrome and I have known since the day he was born and there is no need to tell me that like I don't know. I don't understand why they cant just talk about Kristofer as a persona and not having the need to say it out loud every 5 minutes that he has downs. But the good thing is that most people that work with Kristofer just talk about him...Kristofer, but I just had to get this out!

My prince charming!

My private island Hjörsey


The weather this winter and the dark days made me think of my family private island Hjörsey. There are no words that can describe this beauty of nature! We have no electricity, no tv, no bathtub or shower….just like the old days and I love it. This island is the third bigges island out side of Iceland, so its pretty big! A lot of people use to live there back in the days, but my grade grandfather bought the island later on. When I was little I use to stay there the hole summer, we would be up to at last 10 kids at the time just playing and running around the island, chasing horses and horseback ride. These past days I have been daydreaming about my island and I’m so excited to go back there this summer, so I had to share some pictures with you so you get the idea what I’m talking aboutJ Im so lucky to have this island in my family and there are not that many places left like this one, were you go back few decades and live with the nature and what was back then….
These picturse just warm me up from the cold over here!




That´s how we do it over there!


The beach, yellow sand, sun and the ice cold sea


Hildur on the beach

Kristofer was not afraid at all of the sea and would just run into the water, even though it is freezing cold!
our horses

The sunset, the most beautiful!
