Hier habe ich alle kleinen Geschichten rund um mich, meine Aktivitäten und unser rosa Haus zusammengefasst
My friend Dani and I made a little movie of us baking the carrot cake from my book. It´s real easy, I only recommend to secure the Icing from kids. Otherwise It might not make it onto the cake. Here´s a link to the German post on www.backenmitlove.de
My hubby and I headed to Holland last weekend, mainly for relaxing and because of the ooohhh so fantastic weather forecast! And it turned out exactly as planned. We even met Julia and her sister in Egmond, I guess that I have last seen her in March on my birthday. We had too many "koffie verkeerd" (but who is counting?), we were laying at the beach for hours and I finished 3 books in a row - the perfect weekend…
Yes, I know, I haven´t posted anything in a week or so. Reason for that is: I am working on various 'soon need to be finished' ideas that are circling around my mind: I need to get them done and off my table. Speaking of my table, here's what it looks like today. Maybe with that you can a little relate to, what´s going on in my head.
A very cool post-Christmas surprise. Yesterday, we received a couple of copies from Swedish "Allt i Hemmet" magazine which featured our house in their Christmas 2012 special. Click on the pic to see all pages.
While you wait for santa to bring you gifts make sure to take part in our christmas sweater counting challenge. Animals are counted double and if a sweater is owned since the 80ies you can even do triple counting.
Last weekend the winter was just perfect, with sun and snow. We are very happy with the fragment of the wall, gate and fence that our gardener put there just a couple of weeks ago. It looks like it has been there forever. Although the path is really leading nowhere, and the gate is only decoration, we keep telling ourselves that Santa will use it in two weeks time to bring our gifts.
In it´s November issue Laviva Magazine from Germany features our house as part of their 'My Home' section. Whilst my name, Andrea Stolzenberger, is spelled correctly in the article, they got the name of my husband pretty wrong. He is a little bit grumpy about it, but still loves the photos. Laviva magazine is available in Germany at REWE, Penny, Pro Markt, Toom and larger kiosks. Here´s a sneak peek.
