Strawberry banana smoothie (vegan, GF)

June 12, 2017 By travellingoven 4 Comments

I am sorry I haven’t been posting as often as I would like to but I moved to another apartment and this time not to another country or another city, just to another part of the city, but still moving leaves you stressed, exhausted, shifted out of your routine and your ‘normal’ and it always takes time to get everything unpacked, organized and get your life back on track. Also, summer temperatures are here and that’s definitely not helping! But you got to do what you got do, right? So there is no help in complaining  but one by one, box by box and sooner or later all will be done. Have you moved often in your life? Me, about 10 times (not counting few moves in my student years) and in 5 different countries and let me tell you, it doesn’t get easier over time! Actually, it gets more difficult as over the years you have more and more stuff and I won’t admit that there were melt-downs happening where I  wanted to get rid of 50% of the things I own! :/

Strawberries

Over the time we accumulate so many things that we don’t really need and many of those are just kept in some cabinets or storage units collecting dust. In fact, I really feel the need to declutter and besides those things that are necessary or valuable, keep only something that really has an emotional value and not every single thing that ‘I might’ need in the future’. How do you feel about this? Do you find it difficult to let go of the things? For me it’s always a challenge as I get emotionally attached to everything! :/ One thing that I definitely declutter with every move is my wardrobe as I always give away to charity all the clothes items that I haven’t worn for quite some time because that probably means that I never will! In fact, sometimes I do it a bit extremely and afterwords feel like I literally don’t have anything to wear. But we often feel that way even if we have wardrobes full of clothes so really if you haven’t worn an item for years, most probably you should get rid of it…

So considering all these (the move, the heat, the new kitchen being a total mess!) , you can understand why I have been eating lots of smoothies, fruit, salads, very simple dishes these days! I am kind of sad that strawberry season is already at the end here in Croatia so I wanted to post one more recipe with sweet strawberries so we can enjoy them till the very last one! 🙂 In European countries that are more in the North strawberry season is still going strong so that’s another reason for posting this now. By the way, have you checked out my recipe for delicious Strawberry banana ice cream, I highly recommend it! Also these Chocolate & strawberries overnight oats that make a perfect summer breakfast!

One thing that I can’t wait to fix and organize is my new little studio corner so I can start shooting and creating new recipes for you! But I hope you’ll understand if it will take me some time to get there! <3 Make sure you subscribe to my blog (just write your email address in the Subscribe box on my homepage) so you don’t miss any new posts…

Hi! I’m Lili and I’m so happy
to welcome you on my blog!

First things first. Why Travelling oven you’re wondering? Well, when this blog was created I had been living as an expat for about 8 years in beautiful countries like Scotland, Kazakhstan, Switzerland, Turkey...READ MORE...

It’s incredibly hot day in Dubrovnik, 36 C at th It’s incredibly hot day in Dubrovnik, 36 C at the moment and that’s quite unusually hot even in August. So I just want to eat light food (fresh figs! cold watermelon! juicy tomatoes!), drink lots of water and hide from the heat imagining all my favourite things I will enjoy this autumn. Tomorrow we should be back to ‘normal’ summer weather… Stay tuned! 😅

I love photographing doors. Also, imagining who li I love photographing doors. Also, imagining who lives behind those doors and what are their stories.. In life, love and between. It has to do less with curiosity and more with entering the world of imagination. Possibly escaping the realities of life too. Anyway, to keep it more light and simple on this summer afternoon, here’s a photo of pretty doors! 😄

These days I don’t have much appetite. It’s mo These days I don’t have much appetite. It’s mostly the heat that doesn’t agree with my body, me and summer heat are certainly not on good terms. Also, there’s a lot on my mind. And heart. 
I would love to feel the lightness of summer, you know the one where you feel that the summer breeze coming from the sea in the evenings melts all your life challenges and blues away and you feel ligtness in your heart and body. A sparkle. Excitement. Flow. But sometimes that doesn’t come easy. So I need to make an effort and try a bit harder. And that’s ok. Some summers are lighter than others just as some winters are darker. All that is our beautiful life…❤️

In both food and nature photography I’m drawn to In both food and nature photography I’m drawn to simple scenes, even minimalistic, capturing beauty of something ‘ordinary’ that could easily be overlooked… 
I admire work of many photographers who create beauty with busy, more complex scenes but when I decided to follow my heart and what feels right to me, that’s when I started enjoying photography the most. ❤️

My editing style has changed a lot in the last few My editing style has changed a lot in the last few years so sometimes I like to re-edit older photos and compare with the original edit. Most of the times I’m like ‘what was I thinking?!’…😅 But I actually like to see the difference and I’m enjoying the process of changing, evolving, seeing things differently.. So here’s a new edit of this lovely scene and cake made by @evakosmasflores, hope you like it. It makes me feel like late summer afternoon…🧡

When you have your own business there are times wh When you have your own business there are times when you don’t have weekends, you don’t have days off, no holidays, when you need to keep going even if you’re going through something difficult and just want to stay in bed… And it’s not always easy. There are also times, specially in the first years, when you don’t know if you are going to make it, if you will earn enough to support yourself, if you will be ‘good enough’… But I wouldn’t change all that for anything because doing what you love is incredibly rewarding and I love photography with all my heart and soul. 
It saved me more than once. It keeps saving me, helps me express myself and what I feel, it gave me back my confidence and a purpose when I nearly lost it. It was the best decision of my life (well, the one of getting a divorce and get out of a really bad marriage is there somewhere too 😅) to take that new path in my late 30s and start all over again… It’s never too late. ❤️
