I’m really proud to be Swiss. To be Swiss holds a lot of beautiful memories and also, I guess, a lot of knowledge (or at least understanding) about Switzerland.

any excuse to sneak chocolate into my meals - or my snacks, mind - is welcome in my book… when it’s not as bad for me i’m doubly euphoric, of course. these superfood (i.e. dried fruit and nuts) dark chocolate nibbles are good for you, minus the often involved guilty pleasure compensation. i created themContinue reading
this spring, inexplicably, i haven’t gotten around to enjoying gathering my own share of spring’s abundance. as a self-declared “herbal witch” and a big fan of gathering - see evidence from former gathering sessions here, here, here or here - i feel so ashamed to admit i’ve never even picked one leaf this season. and i’m afraid many of the wildContinue reading

i haven’t made any major, unrealistic new year’s resolutions, however, i must admit i let my workouts awfully slip these past months due to simply being in over my head with work etc. i’m now more than ready to get back into the saddle (not literrally), as in: i’m taking my beloved yoga sessions backContinue reading
only recently, i’ve discovered a major secret. ground shattering. earth moving. show stopping. bing bang secret. you know, as a food blogger i’m pretty much addicted to good looking food. not limited to the good looks, of course, because the taste is just as important if not more important, sine qua non, so to speak.Continue reading
the odds are: i really like kaiserschmarrn, and i’ve praised its perks - i.e. comforting, sugary, sweet and basically everything you want from something to eat - at least once (though in my mind, it’s been far many times than that, really). and for those of you who have no idea what kaiserschmarrn is, here’sContinue reading
