Galstar summer sale or campaign?

Hello

so lately everything has been really quiet or should i say boring ( which is just plain sad T-T urgh), i am supose to write a bunch of angry letters to a bunch of people, who didn't do their job properly and f*cked up bad(because they only think of Money!!). Which meant that i had to pay the price, because of their failure >_<  but nevertheless i got tons of evidence against them,( ﾟ∀ﾟ)ｱﾊﾊ八八ﾉヽﾉヽﾉヽﾉ ＼ / ＼/ ＼ mean mode= off

well back to the point! other then doing nothing, i have been roaming rakuten and discovered that Galstar had reduced their prices to a crazy low amount!!!!( ﾟдﾟ) 
in the spring time, they had a campaign called GALSTAR X Ribbon Project: Gyaru Earthquake Relief running for a timeperiod, which meant that a  portion of sales on discounted items at the GALSTAR website  and rakuten would be donated to the Japanese Red Cross.
However i am not sure if they still donated some of the money to red cross, those will must likely have a "keep alive, Need help" tag on them.
But visted their Rakuten website to so, because they have some awesome offers!!!Galstar store

For those of you who don't know Galstar is an Shibuya 109-style brand whose clothing is featured regularly in magazines such as nuts and BLENDA

now i will stop writing because my index finger hurts, i scolded it in HOT water and the most unbelieveable thing happen, i got a bursted blood vessel afterwards. a big one, so now i can't use my finger 
bye bye

niece birthday and vanilla custard recipe(pic heavy)

Hey everyone ;)

Saturday was my little niece birthday(she turned 3 years old ), so we held a very small birthday party at my house, which she was very excited about sinces she loves coming to my house. 

so we prepared a torte(lagkage in danish) and some buns - it is a tradition in Denmark to eat a torte and some buns on ones birthday, altough its different from place to place - i was in charge of making the torte, because i love making desserts, especially cakes.

so i decide that it should be a cake with different fruits, vanilla custard and whipped vanilla cream.

for the cake i used:

a 3 layered cake(premade, didn't havee the time to make one myself)

125 g  blueberries

2-3 bananas(sliced into circles)

a handful strawberries(for decoration, sliced)

vanilla custard(the recipe, will be further down)

2-3 dl double cream

tsp vanilla sugar

sorry if it all seems messy, trying to remember what i actually did and put in the cake, haha.

there won't be a pic of the first layer, sinces i forgot to take a picture of it( apparently i was zoming out)

but in the first layer i put vanilla custard and sliced bananas on top of it, did the same on the second layer, however it was with blueberries( see pic)

blueberry love, hehe. they were very good and cheap,

they are usually expensive in Denmark, but not this

time, so i had to buy them

and then....i was all out of custard(to my mothers big complaint, she wanted some extra to put on her piece) well back to the recipe, take out your double cream, put it in a bowl, put a tsp vanilla sugar and whisk until it has the thickness, that you like. btw:i like mine lightly whisked.

 cut out your strawberries into slices and pat them gently with kitchen papir(to prevent the strawberry juice from ruining the whipped cream)

put the whipped cream on the top layer and smear it out on the top, and along the sides. so it will look like this

yummy strawberries from our garden

then for the vanilla custard(vanilije creme in danish, lidt a la kagecreme)

200 ml double cream(piskefløde in danish)

300 ml milk( i used semi-skimmed, but you can use whole milk or what you like)

3 egg yolks

70 g sukker

1 vanilla pod

mix the cream and milk together and put in a saucepan. split the vanilla pod and scrappe out the seeds or what you call it( the black stuff) , then put it in the milk mixture along with the splitted pod.

set the heat to medium, when it boils remove from stove. the put the egg yolks in to a bowl with the sugar and whisk until it is white-ish and fluffy. remove the vanilla pods from the milk mixture and pour it into the egg mass, whisk lightly and then pour it into a clean saucepan. set the stove to low and whisk while it slowly thickens. when it has become the thickness you desire, put it in a jar or tupperware and let it cool down, this will make it thicken even more(pics below)

 the first two are of the milk mixture with vanilla in it

 egg yolks and sugar not mixed together yet

 egg mixture, whisked into a fluffy and white-ish color

 the egg mixture and milk mixture put together  and heated.

close-up picture, which is being a b*tch 

all in all it turned out good, everyone was happy with the result, eventhough my niece was much more interessed in the presents(who could blame her). we gave her two dvds, some dolls and two sets of play dough, which she really liked. i played with her later that day and she was really funny(quite intelligent for a 3 year old).

we had the play dough on a table outside in the garden and when my mother came up to asked what we were doing,she was like.

My mother: hey what are you making, nariko(my nieces name)

Nariko:shhh grandma, you can't play with us, only mille(me) and me can!

my mother: i can't play with you guys? don't worry i won't interrupt.

Nariko: no grandma can't play, only mille.

which i of course thought was sweet, but anyways her are some pic of our creative work, hehe XD

  BTW: the ameba layout css guide my take a little while longer than expected, ran into some problems, that needs to be fix!

see ya all later
