Such an inviting kitchen! I love all the white, the subway tiles and all the personal touches (via Husligheter).

Hai Astrid! I'm Lucie. I live now in Brittany, France. My favorite activity there is walking along the beach :)
Congratulations Lucie! Please send me an email with your postal address.
Even though we don't do much of the renovation work ourselves, the whole process is really tiring. The garden suite is nice, but I miss having a real home. I miss real summer and I wish we could go somewhere warm, near a beach - like the places pictured below. I'm sure everyone who has been through a big renovation project can relate to this.
Crillon le Brave, Provence
Nice
Whiteheaven beach, Australia
The island of Hvar, Croatia
Grand Hotel Central, Barcelona
Cassis, Provence

Everyday stories outtakes from week 29 in July. I'm collecting most of the outtakes in the my everyday life 2011 set on Flickr and some in the big 2011 renovation set. As I mentioned a week ago, Thursdays will be everyday stories outtakes day.

The giveaway ends tomorrow, Friday.
Here are some recent (and not so recent) dinner favorites:
- mushroom and bacon risotto made with Jacobs oksekraft (broth)
- lentil soup with lamb and coriander (via matprat.no)
- grilled cod filet with lemon, garlic and fresh parsley served with a spicy fruit salad with watermelon, honeydew melon, mango, strawberries and fresh coriander
- grilled trout with pesto and garlic served with baked potatoes and a classic cucumber salad (cucumber dressed with vinegar, water, sugar, salt, pepper and fresh parsley)
- pan fried slices of turkey filet with Sølve's special spice mix served with a salad made of a store bought lettuce mix of baby spinach, rocket and red rhubarb, little gem lettuce, pomegranate, mango, celery and red onion (photo above)
- side dish: cannellini beans dressed with a good olive oil, Maldon salt, fresh ground pepper and fresh parsley from the garden (idea brought home from Tuscany)
- grilled Salma salmon (with Maldon salt and fresh ground pepper) served with a couscous salad with fresh Norwegian strawberries, nectarine, honey dew melon, watermelon and mango, plus parsley and chives from the garden
PS: The Dinner Project Blurb book is still available in my Blurb bookstore.

Volpaia is a beautiful small fortified village in the middle of the Chianti area of Tuscany and the home of the Castello di Volpaia winery. We were given a tour of the village and the winery, and then we enjoyed a lovely dinner in the Al Chiasso die Portici restaurant.

Why do you shoot film, Sophia?
I shoot film for the excitement and anticipation, and the fact that I can compose and process a photo whichever way I want, but the rest is out of my hands. An element of magic occurs after I press the shutter, and the surprise that ensues fills me with joy. In a fast paced world, shooting film is a way for me to slow down—to be patient and to wait for the results, treasuring what I’ve created. I love film for its imperfections: for the light leaks and the grain, the unintentional lines and the unusual colors. While digital photography is easily manipulated to create desired effects and to mask flaws, film photography requires a certain degree of acceptance and a willingness to go with the flow, finding the beauty in photographs that may not have turned out the way we’d planned.
You can see more of Sophia's film photos in this set on Flickr.
