Breastfeeding pic gets more hate than Kim's butt.

Actress Allysa Milano had her baby girl Elizabella Dylan Bulgari last September. She's very proud of her baby girl and posted a phote of her breastfeeding her on instagram.
Bur the pictures of Kim Kardashians naked body "break the internet" are also a big hit on the internet.
Milano noted that she wears a shirt on her selfie and she gets a ton of backlash while critics seems fine by Kim's oily naked booty.

She tweeted:

I think it's weird that when people put a naked "sexy" photo of them selfs on the internet is all ok. And while you are breastfeeding your baby. What is the most natural and beautifull thing there is is all bad and should not be shown on the internet.

No offence about Kim's picture but if that's beautifull so is breastfeeding your own child. 

What do you think?
Can you show breastfeeding pictures on the internet or is it a no go?

Gingerbread cubes, ginger nuts, spice nuts healthy!

Our lovely Saint is in our country today!
Time to put our shoe in front of the chimney and get some presents, well only if you are good.
Or else you go in the bag and go to Spain to help the Saint for next year.
Well I don't know if that's bad. It's raining here and maybe there is it all sunny.

But back to basic. Since August the first gingerbread cubes, spice nuts, ginger nuts or what ever you will call our Dutch Saint Nicolas sweet treat are in the store. I love those treats a lot but it's not that healthy.
I've made specially for this Holiday a healthy ginger, spice nut cookie.
You can eat a lot more of these then of the store version.
But eat it in moderation. 
This is also a fun recipe to make with your kids!

This recipe is lactose free, there are no refined sugars and no wheat.

Enjoy!!!
 What you need:
120 gram spelled flour
80 gram almond flour
60 gram coconut blossom sugar
5tbsp gingerbread spice
5tbsp liquid coconut oil
2tbsp soy milk
1/4 tsp salt
5drops vanilla extract

Preheat the oven on 180degrees.
Mix both the flour, coconut blossom sugar and spice and salt together.

Add the coconut oil and vanilla extract to it and mix again.
At last add the milk to it and knead it into a ball.
Make small balls out of it and flat it a little.
Put this on a ovenplate.
Put this in the oven for about 20minutes till they are nice and brown.
They will be a little bit soft when they come out of the oven but if you let them cool down a bit they will get hard.

You can keep them for a week in a closed bin.

Falafel

Falafel is a traditionally Arab food. The word falafel may descend from the Arabic word falafil, a plural of the word Filfil, meaning "pepper."
When falafel is made ​​the traditional way, is indeed a vegan food; it's a great source of protein for people who have cut meat out of Their diet. It's Relatively low in fat and has no cholesterol if you fry it in heart-healthy grapeseed oil. And if you top it with veggies in a pita, it Becomes a filling and nourishing meal! Sure beats a Big Mac, if you ask me.

You will need to soak dried chickpeas overnight for your falafel to turn out right; canned beans are too tender and containerization too much moisture to Achieve the right consistency. Do not cook the beans, Because this will result in a denser mushier and falafel-which is not the clean texture.

1 pound (about 2 cups) dry chick peas
1 small onion, chopped Roughly
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3-5 cloves garlic
1 1/2 tbsp flour
1 3/4 tsp salt
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Pinch of ground cardamom
Coconut oil for frying

Pour the chickpeas into a large bowl and cover them by about 3 inches of cold water. Let them soak overnight. They will double in size as they soak.
Pour them into your food processor along with the chopped onion, garlic cloves, parsley, flour, salt, cumin, ground coriander, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cardamom.
Pulse all ingredients together Until a rough, coarse meal forms. Scrape the sides of the processor Periodically and push the mixture down the sides. Process till the mixture is somewhere entre the texture of couscous and a paste. You want the mixture to hold together, and a more paste-like consistency will help with that.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
Form falafel mixture into round balls.
Before frying my first batch of falafel, I like to fry a test one in the center of the pan. If the oil is at the right temperature, it will take 2-3 minutes per side to brown (5-6 minutes total). If it browns faster than that, your oil is too hot and your falafels will not be fully cooked in the center. Cool the oil down slightly and try again. When the oil is at the right temperature, fry the falafels in batches of 5-6 at a time till golden brown on bothsides.

Let them drain on paper towels. Serve the falafels fresh and hot.

Mine are not that perfect round. Sorry for that.

Vacation shoplog

Only 9days to go and we're going on vacation!
Finally together and alone time with the three of us.
No work, no householding, only relaxing.

And vacation time means time for new clothing!

I bought some things online at the H&M webshop.
A colleague of mine bought the vest in another store like what I have orderd now.
I was searching for a poncho kind of thing but this is much better!


She has a great own style also. She wear things I really like but never had the guts to try it on. Especially now when I have a little baby.
I'm blessed with my body that it came out so nice but it's not the same as before I was pregnant.
But she told me how you could wear a crop top and that I sure can wear it.

So this vacation I try this new kind of style out. That 's why I orderd a crop top and a high waist jeans.

What do you think of the stuff I bought?

It's not the destination that matters. It's the change of scene.
