I am so looking forward to next week. The German Edition of Sweet Paul Magazine does 5 full pages on my "Backen with Love" book. I am so happy, the specimen copy of the magazine was in the mail today. Sweet Paul is one of my absolute favorites and I never thought that I could be in it some day. As a "Thank You", I have designed three cute crafty bookmarks that you can actually win in a competition that…
Yes, I know, VD is over (I am not even mentioning the name), but that should not stop you from having a sweet and hearty breakfast together with milk like those peanut butter cookies. Whilst I am at it, I also have some leftover table decorations pictures from the day I am no longer mentioning. Moving on to spring then, not such a bad idea anyway.
I was in Erkrath yesterday for a "Backen mit Love " book signing event. I basically moved in there for the afternoon with all my Valentine`s Day stuff. We turned the event into a scrapbooking workshop and it was a blast. Thanks to the lovely people from Buchhandlung Weber who invited me and have such lovely furniture. It was very easy to decorate everything nice. Thanks also, to everyone who came chatted, scrapbooked or bought the book. I still can´t…

So, if you happen to live around NRW in Germany come and…
This weekend I was planning on making some S'mores over the campfire. Well, lot´s of rain, so no campfire. However, with a little bit of creativity S'mores can also be fun indoors. I melted the marshmallows in a pan and instead of cookies I just added some cereals and put the chocolate on top. It´s quick and easy with only one more thing to add: "calorie counters you better stay away from them".

This Valentine´s Day, I have my focus on two projects. First it´s all about getting the windows of the house ready for the special day. After I had removed all Christmas ornaments from the windows, they looked empty. The second thing I am working on is a Valentine's Day card, which I hope will be finished soon, so that I can give it to you as a downloadable greeting.
