1. When I visited my family in May, my sister passed on this Naketano Long Hoodie to me. Naketano was a popular German clothing brand (which sadly has been discontinued) and I was trying to get my hands on one of their awesome, cozy sweaters. I bought one online (from leftover stock) and my sister…
The weekend before Christmas, I finally got around to baking some holiday cookies and since it’s just two people eating over here, I stuck with one of our favorite cookies: Vanillekipferl. Saturday night, we walked the ‘Fabulous 40’s’ to look at all the Christmas lights. It’s always fun to see how many people go all…
LOVING | my new mug(s). (I got a total of 4 new mugs over the holidays and I couldn’t be happier!) ENJOYING | the 2nd Christmas holiday. Because it’s a holiday in Germany and everyone should get not one, but two holidays for Christmas. Period. EATING | holiday cookies and scones. DRINKING | my first…
Five Things Friday: just five things I’m thinking about or things that made my week, or things that I otherwise feel like sharing. You guys, I don’t know why I haven’t thought about this earlier, but if you have some cloves in your spice cabinet, put some in a little bowl on your living room…
Around the Interwebs I found this interesting: The 3 core skills that every person needs for a healthy romantic relationship. The American Dream is killing us. The 2010’s have broken our sense of time. No kidding. I am looking into this: The only five email folders you need. Does someone use this system? I think…
I admit, I am kinda late putting my wish list out there, haha, but in all honesty, I am not expecting any of this under the Christmas tree. I am just having a little fun. I love the holiday gift guides that are popping up all over the Internet this time of year, and I…
Five Things Friday: just five things I’m thinking about or things that made my week, or things that I otherwise feel like sharing. I am happy to report that I am officially busy at work again. I won’t complain, don’t worry. After so many weeks of twiddling my thumbs (figuratively speaking), I was ready for…
Let me liken my reading routine to a roller coaster, my friends. It’s been going up and down and right and left and I am just hanging on for dear life. But I lied in my last post. I finished not one, but two books in November. Imagine my delight when I realized that. I…
Before we’re midway through December and have all but forgotten about Thanksgiving, let me recap real quick: four glorious days off and nowhere we had to be. We stayed put over the holiday weekend and it was the best decision. This year, I finally decided to run the “Run to Feed the Hungry” Turkey Trot on…
READ I only read just one book. It’s still slow going around here when it comes to reading, but I am keeping at it. Review to come. COOKED A hen for Thanksgiving with mashed potatoes, stuffing and green beans. We also cooked quite a few soups and stews, and as always, pasta dishes. We do…
