Sometimes life has a way of quietly being everything you want it to be, those simple moments where you wouldn’t wish to be anywhere else with anyone else even if given the choice.

I find those perfect moments with those perfect conversations are a rare thing.

Like countless people on this earth I have countless precious people in my life and things are pretty well blessed, but those moments where nothing feels imperfect including myself is something that fills my heart infrequently.

Do you ever go somewhere and buy a lovely product, take it home, devour it and think ‘I could make this myself?’

This thought has crossed my mind many times when I’ve bit into something slightly different, but I usually let it go into the vault of good food memories.

You know the one with donuts floating in the air and those 2am burgers that you thought at the time was the best thing you’d ever eaten!

“Sunday is the golden clasp that binds together the volume of the week.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


Oh Sunday, how I may love you more then all the others.

Sunday is my day.

I don’t usually make plans with anyone because quite simply I rush from work to see friends to exercising most days of the week that Sunday is for sleeping in with no guilt.

Quinoa’s Gone Coconuts

I am a person with an anxiety ridden back bone.

There are many of us out there who lose sleep over little things.

Or have panic attacks - large and small over seemingly insignificant things to those without that anxiety gene.

Due to this my food intake of the past week not being the freshest, healthiest laden plates of meals.

Wanting to pull myself out of the unhealthy slump and the inspiration of a little nutty vegan bread hovering in my mind the next week’s snack intake will now be filled with more good then bad.

Saturday Gifts and A Little Southern Sandwich

My best friend (mentioned in an earlier post) simply never stops. She is always working on something for someone and a day off is such a rare thing with her nowadays that our time together is usually for a few short hours once a lucky week.

This was not the case today though, she called me and asked me to make my first tiered cake at her house (that recipe coming later), in order to photograph me for my blog.

Upon arriving she gifted me a set of four unique plates to celebrate the beginning of my blog (so the bestest ever right?).

And above is one of the four uniquely beautiful plates now in my possession.

Attempting the Plait

My mom was born and raised in Berlin and for a short period in my teens we moved over to Germany, becoming ‘regular’ culturally non German ‘Germans’.

During this time, I attended a typical high school in the small town we had moved to (two hours from the wonderful city that is Berlin) and I took cooking class or Hauswirtshaft as it’s called there. Basically a ‘how to’ in how to have a successful household, this included smart sense ‘money’ lessons in how to save and set aside income for regular outgoings.

A Breakfast Bread

I went blueberry picking again and some might say I'm a sucker for punishment, but I think I just know how to grab a good opportunity with both hands.

In my current situation of downsizing my possessions, I thought I would make a recipe I’ve never made before from an old cooking magazine, particularly now as I am getting rid of needless things.

And my luck it involves blueberries.
