Hej!
The winters in Scandinavia are long and dark, so the people there are naturally experts in creating cozy settings inside their homes with candles, mulled wine (Glögg) and other delicacies…
It is tradition to invite friends over for a cup of Glögg and some pepparkakor (Ginger Thin cookies). This is called “Glöggmingel”.
Do you want to try to make your own Glögg? It is easy! Here is a basic recipe (but I encourage you to experiment to find your own personal favourite):
1 bottle of red wine (low quality is fine)
1-2 sticks of cinnamon
around 15 cloves
some orange peel
5 cardamom pods
1 dl sugar (or more or less depending on your taste)
1 dl vodka (amount also up to you;-)
Heat all the ingredients but do not boil. Serve with flaked almond and raisins.
Skal!
P:S: If you don’t like vodka you can use rum or cognac instead.

On June 6th 2018, I organized a private tour of the Art exhibition “Fashion Drive” at Kunsthaus Zürich for my Instagram followers and friends.
It turned out to be a very interesting evening with much laughter and it was so wonderful to meet some more of my IG friends LIVE 🙂
Anna Buehler, who was our tour guide for the evening, informed us all about how fashion has evolved over the centuries and showed us examples of how this has been portrayed in art.
Jeanette, Nadia and Mira listening to Anna…
Jeanette and I enjoying the tour…
Some of the exhibits…

This one, called “Metamorfosi” by Michelangelo Pistoletto, was of a more critical nature… We were reminded of Vivienne Westwood’s motto: “Buy less, choose well and make it last!”
Some examples of art on clothes by Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood…
“Flow my tears I” by Mai-Thu Perret shows a copy of Elsa Schiaparelli’s skeleton dress made in collaboration with Salvador Dali. In the background the painting “La poudreuse” by Felix Vallotton.
