Well, I was feeling lazy about posting today again, but I shouldn’t make Samuel do it for me every week, even though he does such an awesome job. This week, I have some nice little chocolate bombs to introduce you to. They’re basically just little brownies stuffed with a fluffy Nutella cheesecake mousse. I don’t … Read more
Yes, I’m still alive. I’ve just been a little busy the last couple of weeks since my family came to visit all the way from the USA. I’m gonna miss those guys, especially the little munchkin pictured below prancing around in a fairytale-esque field of flowers. I’m sort of obsessed with these flowers. I … Read more
Homemade The Ultimate Cookie Dough Milkshake “Hey, honey,” Samuel said the other day, looking up from his homework, “Do you think we have a lot in common?” I scratched my head thoughtfully, “Yeah,” I said. My mind drifted to the chocolate ice cream in the freezer. If only it had peanut butter in it. What … Read more
After a wonderful week in Rome (post coming soon) and a not so wonderful 19 hour day of traveling, we are finally back in the beautiful United States of America for a visit. I have to say, of all the amazing places I’ve been in the past year, nothing beats the spacious skies and amber … Read more
And now what you’ve all been waiting for… yesterday’s mysterious Instagram photo revealed. I know.

Happy Halloween! As usual, I kind of failed on the posting seasonal/holiday themed recipes thing. No spider web cupcakes or caramel apples here! I don’t know if it’s defiance or laziness that makes me do these things, but contrary to what you may think, kringle actually has no relation to Kris Kringle or Christmas whatsoever … Read more
Being a mom means that I don’t have all the time in the world for baking that I used to. I spend most of my waking hours playing with, reading to, feeding, squeezing the thighs of and bouncing the curls of my (six month old!!!!!!!) son. But does this mean I am any less worthy … Read more
I’m back! And in hopes that you will forgive me for my brief absence, I bear gifts of fudgy, flourless brownies topped with a fluffy peppermint cream cheese frosting and studded with the delicate crunch of candy canes. Am I forgiven? So how is it that my kid was perfect for 9 hours straight in … Read more
Hello, and welcome to my first post of 2018! January may be half over, but (as usual) I have some great excuses! First of all, Samuel now has an official deadline to finish his thesis to get his degree (after which he will have to fly all the way back to Berlin to defend it), … Read more
