Sunflower’s Wonders

Who doesn't love sunflower? It looks like sun, tastes like summer, and it has a pretty incredible history, too.

When you promise Christmas baking practise to kids, well, keep that promise! Here, festive jammie dodgers Zosia and Kola, my two nieces, helped me make. Zosia assured me that she can cook, and she sure does! I was impressed with girls’ boundless imagination and willingness to work. It was fun! Anyone else baking with little helpers this year? PS: recipe for these super yummy jammie dodgers on the blog! ⛄️ . . . #bakingwithkids #baking #christmasbaking #jammiedodgers #cookies #biscuits #homebaking #homemade #kids #fun #ciasteczka #food #foodphotography #クッキー #子供 #楽しい #ベーキング #クリスマス #christmas #christmasiscoming #home #keepyourpromises

Lintvern from Pivovarna Lintvern, Slovenia 🇸🇮. Driving through the mountains in Northwest Slovenia was probably the best part of our road trip, but (understandably) there were very few shops along the way which hindered my search for beer! Shortly after visiting Lake Bohinj, I came across a few beers from this local brewery in a small convenience store. Slightly regretting not taking more than one now 😩. A Black IPA at 7.1%. Zingy citrus flavour which is mellowed out by a hint of caramel sweetness. Finish is moderately bitter with a little bit of spiciness to it. One more please! 9/10. #lintvern #pivovarnalintvern #slovenianbeer #slovenia #slovenian #blackipa #beer #craftbeer #beerlover #beerphoto #beerrating #beertime #beerblog #craftbeerlover #beerphotography #beerenthusiast #beerreview #beertasting #beersoftheworld #beerappreciation #beerme

Graffiti in Zagreb. We only stayed for a single night in Zagreb on the way to Poland, but it sure made a good impression on us. Just a few snaps of some pretty cool street art we saw during our walk around the city 😁 (Not sure why, but the red carpet one down the alley is my favourite!). Another place on the 'must return to' list. #zagreb #graffiti #streetart #croatia #city #urbanart #pacman #nikolatesla #croatian #zeppelin #redcarpet #hrvatska #roadtrip #citybreak #travelcroatia #travel #roadtrip #ontheroad #drivingholiday #ontheroadagain

Urbock 23° from Schloss Eggenberg, Austria 🇦🇹. My third and final Austrian beer - and I managed to find a fairly strong one 😉. Again, purchased in a small supermarket as I had little other choice. It was even fairly hard to find native beers (around 80% of bottles were from abroad 😩) so I took this as my last resort and was fairly surprised to see such a strength when I went to open it! A Pale Double Bock at 9.6%. Flavour is reminiscent of a dark heavy fruit cake although not quite so sweet. Slightly bitter with a long, warming alcohol finish. 7.5/10. #urbock23 #schlosseggenberg #austrianbeer #austria #austrian #paledoublebock #doublebock #bock #beer #beerlover #beerphotography #beerme #beerenthusiast #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #beerphoto #beerappreciation #beersoftheworld #strongbeer #beertime #beerrating #beertasting #beerreview

Omladinsko (or Lokvarsko) Lake. As always, or when time allows at least, we ignored the faster toll roads in favour of the slower (and free!) route from Istria to Zagreb. And here's when it pays off 😁 If you see something worth stopping for, you can just get off the road without hassle. Few quick pictures and then back on the road. #omladinskojezero #lokvarskojezero #croatia #lake #mountains #slowroad #ontheroad #primorskogoranska #hrvatska #roadtrip #ontheroadagain #travelcroatia #landscapephotography #nature #artificiallake #sunset #eveningsky #drivingholiday #drive #travel #travelphoto #takeiteasy

Temno Pivo Nefiltrirano from Pivovarna Union, Slovenia 🇸🇮. After a fairly poor haul of beers from Italy and Austria, I was desperate to bring back as much as I could from the final leg of our trip. So on the first visit to a petrol station, I saw this in its pretty paper packaging (the marketing obviously works 😂) and claimed my first Slovenian drinkable souvenir. A Dark Lager at 4.6%. Reasonably strong malty character with a smooth and slightly sweet finish. Very drinkable but it just feels a little bit watery for me. 6.5/10. #temnopivonefiltrirano #union #slovenia #slovenianbeer #slovenian #beer #darklager #beerlover #beerphotography #beerblog #beerrating #craftbeerlover #beertime #beerreview #beerphoto #craftbeer #beerme #beerenthusiast #beerappreciation #beertasting #beersoftheworld #beerdrinker

Perfect weather to be a Mors (Walrus). So last weekend we took a trip further South of Poland to stay with friends in Gorlice. Don't let the sunshine fool you, because it's still lingering around zero degrees everyday - but that doesn't matter to these crazy people (or perhaps it's the ideal weather and temperature combo?). Just after midday on Sunday we drove down to the river to be greeted by around 30 other brave (crazy?) people, all performing various warm-ups to get ready for a 2 minute dip into the river. Absolute madness, I thought, couldn't see myself stripping down and wading in, but everyone seemed pretty happy and proud to be a 'Mors' and I was certainly impressed, especially with our friends' young son taking his first ever swim. #mors #gorlice #ropa #iceriver #nature #river #belowzero #freezing #coldwaterswimming #poland #rzeka #walrus #sundayafternoon #riverswimming #water #polska #madness #sunshine #winter #southpoland #icewater
