Hope, you all had a good 1.Advent weekend! Mine was filled with decorating the house and – lovely tradition- making Advent wreathes together with my best friends (which certainly means having tea and coffee and a lot of gossiping..). Saturday my talented brother stopped by and helped me to brainstorm on my new kitchen plans. More about this project soon: I’m actually planning to transfer my kitchen from the north to the sunny side of […]
Found these cuties while out there looking for rose hips to decorate my Advent wreath. Can you believe, the southern blue of the sky is true, no Photoshop!
Only one week until 1. Advent! For us it’s the weekend we light the first candle of the Advent wreath and we decorate our homes in the traditional colours: sprigs of fir, box and holly, red candles and ribbons. Red faced little apples and nuts on silver plates, pine sprigs and amaryllis on the window sills. Feel inspired by my pictures; if you are interested you find all these pretty things in Ursula von Hake’s […]
I suppose, the only thing you reliably can buy cheaper in Switzerland than in Germany are dried morels. So whenever I happen to stay in Switzerland I pass by Migros and grab a few 20g envelopes of these wonderful mushrooms. Yummmm! Inspired by Sylvias Pasta from sea and forest I decided to combine the following: a butternut squash + vegetable stock + morels + crabs = delicious surf and turf lunch! To even increase the pleasure […]
For now I’m collecting ideas, browsing cookbooks and blogs. I write to-do-lists and have a look into my chests filled with Christmas decoration in the basement. I call up my dearest relatives and friends to find out how many guests we will have on Christmas. Hopefully last year’s crazy snowfalls won’t keep them off from coming. Ah, and have you already thought about Christmas gifts? Everything planned and fine?? If you are looking for pretty […]
Well, Sauerkraut actually is fermented white cabbage, a VERY traditional German winter vegetable. (Some of you might have heard about it?) The traditional way it is served with mashed potatoes and a piece of roast meat, or Bratwürstl, or goose… The way I recommend to prepare it today is entirely without meat, a bit crossover (lentils, curcuma and apricots) and very warming. The perfect lunch for someone who has been outside the whole morning raking […]
Believe me, this drink has been a real challenge to photograph! Due to the mixture of the violet acai berry powder, the dark orange quince sauce and the green portulaca leaves it quickly adopted an uninviting brownish greyish colour (just like a facial mud pack!) I took two nice glasses we inherited from Grandpa – those with the silver rims, poured in the drink and decorated it with pieces of beautiful apple skin. Now a […]
