It's been a long time...

I was doing groceries and as I was walking through the store I sudenly saw my favorite drink from my time in Málaga, Spain: tinto de verano! It's a really nice fresh red wine, which comes from the southern parts of Spain. There are two different versions. I love the one with lemon, but the original one tastes good as well. I am sooo excited, because now I can buy it in a store that's pretty close to me! :) If you're lucky to be living close to me, you should definitly go to the Albert Heijn in Wielwijk Dordrecht (admiraalsplein). If not, you can look here for more locations.

No milk | week 2

So I survived the second week too! It's just a little bit sad that I don't notice any difference so far. But the fact that I can't eat/drink lactose makes me creative with food and that's a good thing. I've turned 21 last friday and it was a challenge not to eat lots of delicious foods. But I looked for little party snacks that were lactose-free, so I could eat nice things as well. 

No milk | week 1

It's been a week now and I must say it's pretty damn hard. Not being able to eat lots of things I love. For example: yesterday I was craving for a Kinder Bueno, because they are sooo delicious, but I shouldn't eat them. I wanted that Kinder Bueno so bad, but I resisted the temptation.

Also, I ate lots of cheese. But I shouldn't eat my beloved "jong belegen" cheese anymore... that makes me a little bit sad, because that's also soo delicious. I'm glad I CAN eat old Amsterdammer (also a cheese, but older so it's okay), so I don't have to live without any cheese at all. 

There are special product available for people with lactose intolerance. All the products from Alpro for instance. This week I was getting used to the flavour of Alpro products,which is a bit different than normal yoghurt/milk/etc. I've tried 1) mild&creamy strawberry 2) mild&creamy vanilla and 3) blauwe bosbes yoghurtvariatie (blueberry yoghurtvariation). 

1) mild&creamy strawberry

I had to get used to the taste, but now I think it's a good substitute for yoghurt with strawberry taste.  

2) mild&creamy vanilla

Good substitute for yoghurt with vanilla taste. I used it with some Cruesli (from Quacker) and it tasted really good.  

3) blauwe bosbes yoghurtvariatie (blueberry yoghurtvariation)

Although the color is really purple, it tasted super! From all these 3 products, this is my favorite!

So, I survived this week. Let's see if I will make it through the next one. 

Louboutin nails

Last week I tried the Louboutin nails. I saw them somewhere and I thought it looked pretty cool.

And so it came that I tried them for myself last week. I have one important tip for you: make sure your nails are long enough so that you can see the redness easily. Also, use a bright red color, so it will pop out. (I used color riche 404 scarlet vamp from L'Oréal and I think this one was to0 dark ).

No milk

4 weeks without milk

I went to the doctor monday to tell him about my stomach aches. He told me that I might have lactose intolerance and that I should try not to eat or drink any lactose for 4 weeks to see if I'm lactose intolerant. So that means no milk, no cheese for this cheeselover, no icecream and lots of "no more's" for me. I'm a little bit sad about that, because there are so many delicious things with lactose or milk as an ingredient. It had just been a couple of days now, but now I see. It must be pretty hard if you're lactose intolerant. I'm looking at this as a challenge and a way to experience how it is to be lactose-intolerant. Wish me luck! And if you have any (food)tips, please let me know!
