Another year has passed. My goodness. As I feel a little indifferent about this past year, because it wasn’t the greatest year, though not the worst either, I’ll refrain to recap, but will talk about what changes I’d like to make in the new year. Although I am not a big fan of New Year’s…
For me, the pre-Christmas time is almost more precious than Christmas itself. Ok, that is not entirely true, because when we celebrate Christmas with my family, Christmas Eve is pretty much my favorite day of the year, but for this year it is definitely true. Knowing that we wouldn’t go back to Germany for Christmas,…

I seriously can say that I have many amazing people in my life, and I feel quite lucky in that regard. The newest addition to this circle of people that I like to surround myself with, is my new (German) friend S. With most of my friends living many, many hundreds of miles away, she…
This is my little tea pot. I am a huge tea drinker (when I am not drinking coffee with lots of milk!). Especially in the winter, I basically get all my hydration from (herbal) tea. I hardly drink any cold beverages during the winter months. When I get home these days, the first thing…

This picture might seem familiar – I posted it a couple of weeks ago to show you some little improvements around our apartment. Last time, I was raving about our new curtains and how much they tie the bedroom together. I am still thrilled about them. However, let the tiny white arrow direct your attention…
If you know me at all, then you know that Pearl Jam is – hands down – my all time favorite band. If you know their music at all, then you might have picked up that my blog title is a line of their song “I am mine”. You see, I am a grunge girl at heart…
Ok, I really don’t know if that is a topic that you want to talk about, but I promise, even your opinion differs from mine, I still love you. Has anybody watched the Rachel Maddow Show last night? Specifically the part where Rachel interviewed Richard Cohen, the author of the book “Coming out straight”? He…
Also, today is the second Sunday of Advent. I am planning to stay at home, light some candles and prepare my Christmas mail which I want to send out ASAP (especially the mail that’s going overseas).
