I think we have been blogging for about six months now and we still haven’t been able to come up with a decent presentation of ourselves. We have been talking about it though. How we should explain a little bit more about our food philosophy, what kind of things we always keep in our kitchen pantry, and something about our small family. We will do it really soon, maybe even during this weekend. But for now, let’s make some Very Green Juice.
This juice will probably be my favorite drink this summer. It tastes great, is very refreshing and it is only made on green fruits and vegetables!
Since I am quite the ginger-fan I tend to use quite a large piece, if you’re not used to it I recommend to start with a small piece, taste it, and maybe add some more. You make this juice easiest in a juice machine, but you could also throw the ingredients in a blender (make sure to peel the kiwi first).
Kiwi Juice
Around 4 glasses
8 kiwi fruits
3 green apples (we used granny smith)
1/3 cucumber (about 4 inches)
1 piece of fresh ginger
fresh mint leaves
Serve with: ice cubes
Mix all the ingredients in a juice machine. Serve immediately with lots of ice.
I’m not sure what this picture of Elsa is doing in this post. But it was too cute to leave out …

Hi there. We are back.
After one week of snuggling/adoring/talking/singing/kissing/feeding/diaper-changing little Elsa we feel it is time to start spending some time in our Green Kitchen …
To tell you about this plate of pasta I need to take you back a couple of years. Back to when I was living in …

Beautiful presentation. It was nice seeing something so refreshing. Has me daydreaming about summer :)
Beautiful little girl!
I love the flavors you have placed in this juice! And your Elsa is adorable!
That juice looks amazing! Think I need to go and by myself a juice machine right away.
I look forward to read more about you guys!
Love it! The juice looks fab and the baby is so darn cute…my oldest just turned 11 yesterday- enjoy each and everyday!
What an amazing photo!.. both of Elsa, and of the green juice. Shame I’m allergic to kiwifruit. Love all the other flavours though.
I love the look of your photo-so pretty and clean. Oh, and that’s a pretty nice baby you have there too (smile)!
I just found your blog from mintdesignblog.com and I love it!! I can’t wait to follow along.
Beautiful blog, great posts, beautiful baby. :)
COngrats on the beautiful little one and an amazing, gorgeous blog!

Hi Elsa!!! You’re adorable!!
The green juice looks very fresh – and I’ll be looking forward to the introduction post then :)
Ohh, that is a really really great idea for a hot summer day. And would probably work really well with homemade Swedish Cupcakes..
Elsa is adorable, and that very green juice could very well be a very big hit around my house this coming summer. You have a great blog, and the name always reminds me of the film Kitchen Stories.
Nu har jag testat er juice! Funkar även i en mixer, men blir lite tjockare. Mixade med några isbitar så blev det bättre. Bra som förkylningsmedicin med ingefäran och kiwin!
Kram syster
That juice seems so fresh for a hot summer day. I can’t wait to try it when the warmer season kicks in.
Still can’t get over the fact that Elsa is sooooooooooo darn pretty! Every time I see a picture of her I swear it makes my day :D

Great taste! I had it without the ice as I’m still struggling out of the norweigian winter but will definitely use it in the summer. Yum!
