I love „Deko“ und ich dekoriere alles was rumsteht, vor allem unser Haus, hier ist das alles zusammengefasst
Schwarze Johannisbeermarmelade mit Zitrone
Schwarze Johannisbeere ist mein Lieblingsmarmelade. Alle „Leftovers“ vom Sommer werden an Weihnachten als Füllung für die Linzertorte verwendet. Für mich ist das dann immer so ne Art schöne „Preview“ auf Weihnachten. Ende Juni spähe ich immer schon ganz aufmerksam in Nachbars Garten um zu sehen, ob die Beeren reif sind. Vor kurzem war es dann endlich soweit. Mir wurde über den Zaun zugerufen, dass ich Mittags mit meinem Korb vorbei kommen kann. Falls es dich interessiert, ich mache Marmelade immer…
The jam/marmelade season has started. At least for me. So I started with strawberries. Apart form making a yummy jam, I set myself the target to make every single glass different with lot´s of cute hangtags, stamped labels and tiny little crochet things that put a smile on your face for breakfast.

Last weekend my hubby had invited some friends over. Luckily the weather was nice so that I was able to perform an official grand opening of the „outside cake buffet season“. I love this „season“, as I can finally test and use the new furniture that I bought during the cold winter months. First outside buffet of the year usually also puts my hubby’s endless questioning to an end. „Where are you planning to place all these new vintage armchairs ?“. I also tried two drink dispensers with tabs that I filled with ice, fruits, juice and water. They worked amazing and they will definitely be used all summer long.

From a decoration point of view, Easter definitely went by too quickly. I still have some cute ‚unposted‘ pictures. So before the next decoration season comes along, here is everything form a very healthy Easter breakfast with fruit filled Granola shells and Easter buns to a little airwalker bunny enjoying to be in the background of a herb basket.

Just before Easter my friend Dani from Danroeschen got her cute little baby boy. Of course, I "volunteered" to take some pictures of him that should also turn into an Easter card. Great plan, but much easier said than done, as I had never done any baby photos before. Luckily I had some help from friends. Brigitte did the cute outfit and Farina took care of the "positioning". In the end everything turned out very nice. So Hippity Hoppity Happy…
A quick reminder to you and myself, that it is definitely time to set up the table decoration for Easter. I started in the kitchen with these amazing flowers and the set of "Easter" stamped eggs. No, the bunny coffee set is not part of the decoration as it disappeared pretty quickly after the picture was taken. I consider the photographer to be a suspect.
Close to where I live there is a gas station that sells figurines for the garden. One morning passing by, I saw this "teacher" and thought that with Easter coming up, he should open up his school for bunnies on our front porch. A way better place for a school than at a noisy gas station.
