Wermland

Last night I took a long walk to see what I will cook the upcoming week. Instead of the market and LPG I went to my backyard – the Woods. It is right between the seasons now and Värmland is then the perfect place to be. Lingon, Mushrooms, Dears. I like.

My dealer is called Fischladen and located in Schönhausser Allee 128. Now I am looking forward toward 4 month of mussle madness. I … Read More

Du kriegst ein SPIEGEL Abo, Ich bekomme ein Kitchen Aid

Oh yes, it is true. If you buy a subscription of der Spiegel can you buy the adorable Kitchen Aid Classic in white for a very good price. It would look stunning in my kitchen. Of course this gadget would be perfect for my new Image as Housewife material. Unfortunetly (and luckily (priv. remark)) it is only an image, you … Read More
