Poof. Another year gone. I know I say that so often that I can’t believe how fast the time goes, but it continues to be true. Let me just say, I feel that 2022 was better in a lot of ways, but also worse in others. Sigh. Will there ever been more good than bad…
photo credit: @maplepharaoh via Unsplash I guess I am doing this now, taking a look back at the things that I wanted to do in the last year, which I put on the blog for posterity. I guess it is fun to go back and revisit the things I thought about at the beginning of the year and…
Wow, where did this year go? Besides 2021 being much more disappointing (in many regards) as expected, it also disappeared in a blink of an eye, right? I know I say that so often that I can’t believe how fast the time goes, but this time it is really, really true. We all had such…
photo credit: @anniespratt via Unsplash I usually don’t post a review of my previous year’s goals, but in light of a very unprecedented year, I was surprised to see that despite the wrench that 2020 threw into the works of everyone’s life, I checked more things off my “want-to-do”-list last year than I thought. ✔ GO SKIING…
How do you sum up this godforsaken year? Well, let me say first: this has by no means been the hardest year of my life. I’ve personally had more challenging years, but it’s hard to ignore the fact of what we’ve all been through collectively in 2020. I’m writing this from a place of immense…
I cannot believe how fast 2019 came and went. If I had to sum the year up in a few words, it would be the year of reuniting with family and friends. I got to go to Germany in the spring to see one of my best friends get married, I reunited with not one, not…
I wish I was more fancy with my skin care routine, but alas, I am not. I am not a beauty blogger. I don’t have “extensive” knowledge about beauty products and, like most of us (I would assume), I have been switching and trying new products ever since puberty. I go through phases where I…
I read two books in July, hooray! It’s a miracle. J/K. Just happy to see that I invested some of my precious time in two good books last month. The Disordered Mind: What Unusual Brains Tell Us about Ourselves by Eric R. Kandel (★★★★☆) Knowing many people with (diagnosed) mental disorders, I found this book…
READ Reading is still slow…. still reading the same book (all month. Sigh). I actually had to re-borrow it from (a different) library because I didn’t get through it in 3 weeks. COOKED I’ve cooked modified versions of this tortellini soup. One time, we used ground beef instead of sausage, another time with had…
