Flow Mo & Adidas Star Wars - edition.


Flow Mo participated in the launch of the new Adidas Star Wars edition @ Popot Helsinki on March 5th.

We did a walking parade in Helsinki with some of the Imperial army members such as Darth Vader, two Stormtroopers, a snowtroopers, a Tie Pilot and Obi Wan Kenobi.

I've been a huge Star Wars fan since I was a small boy, so it was a dream come true to me to hang around with these characters for the evening.

"Bboy Focus of Flow Mo" Back piece.

"Bboy Focus of Flow Mo" Back piece.

Custom jacket back piece for my crew member Focus.

Focus had a jacket that he wanted me to customize for him. He had a rough vision how he wanted it to look + a photo of the freeze that he wanted in it.

So I took the photo but changed the jeans and collar shirt into a classic red tracksuit with shiny white fat laced superstars. Of course topping the outfit with a pair of square framed bboy "cazal" styled glasses and a "Kangol" on his head.

I decided to do the backpiece with these colors, cause Focus has a pair of Evisu jeans to match the colors perfectly.

I think it came out real nice.

Tosca pie...mmm....


I did some great Tosca pie the other day. That + coffee made me a very happy man. :)

I'm not so accurate with all the measures and if something goes a bit wrong or not in the right order that it "should" go...well... I don't mind so much.. :D

All that matters is that you have fun while doing it and in the end you have something delicious to eat.

This one made my day and hopefully it will make yours too.

-Mikko


Here's the recipe:

Base:

4 Eggs

3 dl sugar

100 g of melted butter

2 dl cream

3 teaspoons of Baking powder

1,5 teaspoons of vanilla sugar

4 dl wheat flour

Frosting:

225 g butter

2,5 dl sugar

3/4 dl wheat flour

400g almond (sliced!)

3 tablespoons of milk

Melt the butter and add in the cream. Mix the flour, backing powder and vanilla sugar together. Whip the eggs and sugar in to a nice fluffy foam. Add the flour/sugar/backing powder mix in to the foam followed with the butter/cream mix as well. Stir all of it into an even paste and pour it on a oven plate. Cook it in your oven in 200 degrees celcius for about 12 minutes. During that time prepare the frosting: Melt the butter in a pot and add all the other ingredients to the mix. Let it just start to boil before you take it off the stove. Take the pie out from the oven and spread the frosting over tha base. Cook the pie still for about 10 more minutes, until the frosting gets a nice golden color.

Enjoy!
