Congratulations on the upcoming National Day, Norway! 🇳🇴❤️
It's not just about getting ready for May 17th this year, I know 😅 Suddenly that day came 😂 and I barely have any idea where the bunadas and everything are, hahaha.
So then there's only one thing to do, and that's to go for a walk, pick some nettles and birch leaves (which just managed to sprout in time for the National Day), and make some delicious food and drink with it! Then I'll get the peace and quiet in place 😂

Nettle sticks (actually homemade marzipan with crushed nettle, yum!!) are delicious and green and pretty. And birch sap is some of the very best there is, and the kids love it too!
See recipe further down if you are tempted and 🌿 And there are a couple of videos on Vossabia's Instagram and Facebook where I show how I do it 💚

🇳🇴 May 17th is the day when the smart ones bring a little bit of everything from Vossabia in their bunad stack, pocket or bunad bag 😉
Huldrelepper , Konlepper or the new favorite Raspberrylepper on lips and actually cheeks to get blush and a lovely glow! If the sun is really scorching and we are walking in long trains, then our super sunscreen will be in the stack and (or maybe stuff it down behind the breast cloth 😂).

Panther balm is a must when the day is getting cold and your feet are aching after a long day in traditional Norwegian shoes! 👣 It boosts blood circulation and is great for all kinds of aches and pains 💛
Maybe I'll put a mini deo Skog or Thyme and Sage deo in the breast cloth too? It's almost endless what a bunad can hold! 😂

★ ★ ★ ★ ★— KittyThe shampoo is good for my dry scalp, and the psoriasis I had on the back of my head is gone. The shampoo is also very thick.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★—AnnFantastic baby ointment. Fixes the redness in the stump quickly. I've started recommending it to others and now I'm going to buy it for baby showers too! Much better than the creams that are recommended with harmful chemicals in them.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— Kristine K.Raspberry Lips feels like the perfect cross between lipstick and lip balm. Gives soft lips with a beautiful color! I also think it lasts well.
Now the season has just started for harvesting and I am so happy to finally be out on the slopes again and pick each plant and herb that will then contribute to Vossabia products with their great super properties, and I look forward to sharing more of that in the future 💚
The first one we pick is nettle, this superpower of a plant. And it's essential in shampoo, among other things, but we also make sure to eat and drink it. And did you know that you can make a delicious snack for May 17th with it too? Check out our low-carb nettle marzipan below and try these delicious "sticks."

The birch also gives a completely magical aroma and taste from the crazy green mouse ears that have just sprouted this late spring.
We make Birch Juice from birch leaves and everyone loves it, and we get the best party atmosphere. If you want to have even more of a party atmosphere, you can use the birch concentrate you get the recipe for here, for a springtime and extremely tasty Birch Cocktail.

Recipe for Birch Soda
- 200 grams of fresh birch leaves
- 800 g organic raw cane sugar
- 1 bag of citric acid
Put all the ingredients in a steel pan and pour over 1 liter of boiling water.
Stir until sugar and citric acid are dissolved.
Leave to steep for 2-3 days (longer time will give more flavor). Make sure all leaves are covered by the sheet.
Strain and fill into bottles or small plastic jars that you can freeze (if you are doubling the recipe, it is perfect to freeze some).
Now you have a strong concentrate that you can use for many things! Make juice or soda (mix with sparkling water) by mixing in a ratio of 1:4 or thinner. Make sorbet or birch ice cream, jelly or cocktail.
