It was my birthday this week.
Happy 28 years old. I am so excited about this year.
We went for delicious dinner at Yum Yum and David got me a beautiful Journal to write down all my thoughts and ideas, dreams and goals.
On Saturday I invited with all our friends at The Happy Kitchen and we had amazing pancake brunch and good coffee.
Thanks to everyone who joined, for all the nice birthday wishes and all the beautiful gifts.
It was an amazing day.

P.S: Thanks to the girls at The Happy Kitchen for my birthday muffin and the good service.

Last Sunday we went for a long walk to the Museum of Childhood.
It was wonderful how we got all these memories back as soon as we recognized toys that we owned or the ones that we always wished for.
There were toys from the beginning of times and it was very inspiring.
On our way back we discovered a few new shops with amazing interior.
And now we are back to the future and it's my birthday week.
I just turned 28- time flies. 
I am looking forward to this weekend of celebration.

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you had a great start into the new year.

2012 is going to be great and will for sure bring on some exciting changes in our lives.

My little new year resolutions include being colorful.
In general I am trying to be more graceful and grateful.
I will do my best to inspire and support my friends and family.
I hope to make people laugh even more than the year before.
Also I won't being too hard on myself and accept that my best will always be enough.
And we will no longer throw clothes around in our room, which was Davids brilliant idea.

What are you up to this year?

We are still not able to move after 3 days of delicious food.
On Christmas day we had our friends over for dinner incl. 2 dogs.
It felt so good just being lazy and eating and watching movies.
These days were much needed.
David is now specialist in napkin folding and I made my first nut-roast.
We spent some family time on phone and skype and it was good to catch up with them.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas time and we wish you a Happy New Year.

Christmas is almost here.
And last minute we got round to get the house decorated.
We had only one day off together to get everything done.
What a wonderful day. Brave shopping with the crowds at the markets and supermarkets.
And then bringing all the treasures home, listening to Christmas music, slurping Golden Milk and dancing around the house in pyjamas.
I bought a mini alive christmas tree in a pot that makes me very very happy.
I really can't wait. We are going to host a Christmas dinner for our friends and it looks like everything is prepared. It's so cozy...
Happy Christmas everyone!

A perfect Sunday in Winter goes like this:
Sleeping in, wrapping up in scarfs, gloves, hats,coats and boots, going for a muffin and coffee, exploring and walking around, taking photographs, grabbing a fresh food from a market, doing yoga, going for a pizza!
Last Sunday we went to Camden, David has never been to the crazy Camden Markets before.
It's certainly not my most favorite part of London but sometimes it can be fun to watch the colourful and weird crowds over there. I wish we took some more pictures of our day...
We grabbed some great food and coffees before we went for a great Kundalini Yoga session, which was Daves first ever Yoga class. I am glad he joined and can't wait to go again.
What does your perfect winter Sunday look like?

P.S: Check out my make up tutorial for the brand-new  Dashing Magazine here.

Today a magic little box arrived in the post. This box made my day, my dinner and put me into an instant Christmas mood. A Christmas Goodie Box from home.
Mum sent 2 advent-calendars (one for Liv, one for Dave), chocolates, espresso, yogi teas, a huge jar of homemade jam, homemade beeswax candles, and homemade Christmas cookies.
Now these cookies are very special. It's a recipe from my grand-grand-mother "Oma Frieda" who was the coolest Lady on the planet. So these cookies are the best in the whole world. And the smell and taste will always remind me of her.
It's so cold here in London, and Dave is in Hong Kong for three days.
Cooking for 1 person is boring and I am super busy with make up artist work.
So I had Christmas cookies and chai for dinner. The perfect winter treat.
Thanks Mum for making my day and my dinner even though we are living in different countries.
