It’s Scrapbooking Time

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 believe that we are already in the 2nd Edition.

Pink hasn´t even started yet

Today, something funny in German. I found this in a Swiss news magazine. A very nice review of my book. Although, absolutely no reason to pity my hubby. He knows what he is doing. Valentine`s Day is coming up next month, so he is aware that the color Pink hasn´t even started in the house yet.

Putting on the Glitz

Tough choice to pick the right hat or antlers for the Christmas themed PopUp Tearoom. The Santa apron and the „HoHoHo“ Bling were mandatory, but I could not decide between the other three. At the end I went with the red & white sugar canes. They are the cutest.

Setting up the Christmas Decoration

This weekend, my hubby is in trouble as I told him that we`ll be setting up the Christmas decoration. Since he is responsible for outside lighting, this means serious work. Only 4 weeks to go, so stay tuned, there’ll be lot’s of pics coming up. Since the hubby was not willing to get photographed standing on the ladder grumpy as nothing seemed to work, here´s me adjusting the front porch.

My Book and Me

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.
