Hier habe ich alle kleinen Geschichten rund um mich, meine Aktivitäten und unser rosa Haus zusammengefasst
I know, the weekend where we take down the Christmas decoration will come eventually every year, but when it´s actually there this means a couple of thing. Worst of all, no denying, it means "Christmas is over". I wish it could have lasted longer, but that´s how it is. The second thing is, we have to work more or less the entire weekend to take down the decorations and store them in the attic. On the pic you see just…
As we had an entire "no snow"-Christmas, I wanted to take a "Happy New Year" picture out in the sun. However, it was a little colder than I thought, so I quickly added a Pumpkin Spice latte to the scenario for a proper last day of Dec feeling. Happy New Year.
I admit it, I just love this song. So we decided to re-record it in German for this year´s Christmas video from Cute Cottage Overload. Wishing you a very happy Christmas, Frohe Weihnachten and a great new year. I still have some 'un-posted' Christmas pictures so they'll be coming up over the next days.
Today is really a big day for me. Our publisher sent me the first copies of our German book 'Backen mit Love - Rezepte aus dem rosa Haus'. I am speechless. Something that started as 1.000.000 tiny 'crafty' pieces glued onto hundreds of pages and 10.000.000 calories in cakes, has finally become real. If you have not yet had a peek into it, please visit www.backenmitlove.de. I am so happy.
It's crafty Saturday ! While I was working on cute bookmarks (soon more about them), my hubby was adding some animals and other cute things to a photo of us that we will use for the promotion of our book.
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…
