when i started this blog, it was just for a couple (read: two) readers. namely: my mom and… well, me (so technically speaking only one reader, ahem). now, i have a small but very nice readership. one hundred one hundred and five (!) readers (somehow we skipped the hundred and went directly to 105) onContinue reading
the thing i’m currently thinking about most: chocolate. might have to do with my current job (that also kept me going during the whole weekend). a ‘chocolate job’ - as we call it in switzerland - and quite literally so! to balance it out for you i’ll tease you with a healthy portion of roastedContinue reading
i’m always looking for new tableware; it’s a real obsession (sadly, i don’t have so much more room at home….). as my suppers will start soon (thank you all for the nice feedback, i’m overwhelmed…! i promise to provide you with news, asap), i welcomed this beautiful checkered jug (yes, in my favorite color, emerald)Continue reading
when you’re a keen vegetarian, you’ve probably heard of hiltl. it’s one of the oldest restaurants in europe for vegetarian cuisine. it’s really delicious vegetarian food, most of all. lots of indian and middle eastern creations, exotic spices, bold combinations. what i love most from their menu is the raw jerusalem artichoke salad. i’ve eatenContinue reading
that’s what i’m planning to do, at least on saturday morning: breakfast in bed. a lavish one, with maybe a baked grapefruit, a fruit salad and a ginger-carrot-orange smoothie for energy. then i’ll have to go work again (tough luck). but my spirits are high, nevertheless. it will be a really nice weekend, i canContinue reading

my latest secret weapon: estée lauder’s advanced night repair. it fights the bad things in life in your sleep. i tell you, it’s a miracle tool, good for your inside and your outside. and, you know, when you feel good from the outside you can improve your inside, too. i must say, some super excitingContinue reading
yesterday, i went to milano with two girlfriends for a shopping spree and lunch. it’s only about 3 hours’ drive from zurich, so not really a big distance. but… stepping out of our comfort zones and discovering something new helps us to stay inspired and motivated… and a little italianità goes a looong way… gee,Continue reading
i haven’t spent a proper night in in… forever. it’s officially my first official tv night in in all of 2013. i ate a healthy get well soup (nothing pretty to look at) and started with ‘wuthering heights’ (honestly… what is this movie? cruel… i think i’ll just stick to my book then… children’s book.Continue reading
let’s talk about something that’s usually not being addressed openly, shall we? it’s been a while since my last more thoughtful exposing post, where i revealed ‘things i’m afraid to tell you’. well, the list of my flaws is long… so long. but today i want to address another topic. namely the horrible monster called ‘lowContinue reading
