we have MOTO BOY's new EP in store (12$)


When Oskar Humlebo, a.k.a. Moto Boy, was in Quebec last time he promised us some dirty things he would do when he comes back for his next tour in Canada planned this fall 2010. But besides that he also told us who Martha actually is, and what his second release "For Martha" actually is all about:

"For Martha" is dedicated to Oskar Humlebos late grandmother Märtha. Its a EP of mystical athmospherical songs who sets for the christmas cosy mood you want to reach in these colder and darker days of the winter. Observe also that the very special music box you see above, is actually used on this album starting the track "A Room Without You"!

I was on Design Sponge this morning and ended up on this recipe! i have to try it. She said she never been a big fan of marshmallow and neither did i. But these photos (taken by Studio Dreyer Hensley) convinced me that maybe i found my kind of marshmallow...

Here's the recipe to try with a nice and warm hot chocolate:

Homemade marshmallows

Makes 12 large ones

3 envelopes of unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cups corn syrup
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
confectioners sugar

In the bowl of an electric mixer, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup cold water.

Let it stand and soak for 10 minutes.

Combine sugar, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan.

Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute.

Pour boiling syrup into gelatin and mix at high speed. Add the salt and beat for about 12 minutes.

Add vanilla. Scrape into a 9 x 9-inch pan lined with oiled plastic wrap and spread evenly.

Cover with plastic wrap.

Let the marshmallows sit for 4-5 hours.

Remove from pan, dredge the marshmallow slab with confectioners’ sugar and cut into 12 equal pieces with scissors. Dredge each piece of marshmallow in confectioners’ sugar.
