Pumpkin Spice Latte…..

09/20/2016 Keine Kommentare

Hi guys

on off the sadest things (or maybe the only one) about fall is that I just can´t get out and get one of those delicious Pumpkin Spice Lattes which belong to fall season like booties and knitted cardigans, cause the nearest Starbucks is about 45 minutes away. This is why I tried out a few recipes to make my own yummy fall drink and this one is the closest to the original so here we go….

Ingredients:

1 cup milk

2 tablespoons pumpkin puree

1 tablespoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice and a little extra for the topping

1/4 teaspoon vanilla syrup

1/4 cup hot espresso

Sweetened whipped cream

Directions:

Combine the milk, pumpkin puree, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and
vanilla in a medium pot and heat it up. Whisk vigorously until the milk mixture is foamy – about 30
seconds.

Pour the espresso into a large mug and add the milk. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice.

Hope you are enjoying yours as much as I do.

Have a great day

Take care. See you. Love K.

Coffee Table Decoration Ideas…..

07/18/2016 Keine Kommentare

Hi guys

I always loved – and still do love hosting all kinds of events like a brunch, a dinner or just an afternoon coffee meeting. Last thing we had yesterday. I had my whole family over for coffee and of course for some delicious cake to show them the new house we are living now ( – for gods sake it is already done). I had been thinking a lot upfront about the table decoration and I decided to go with an outisde theme as we were sitting on the patio. As I had this nice coffee table cup and plate set I decided to got with the colors green and purple – an awesome combination I did never recognice -but these colors rock toghether.

So here we go – this is everything I used ( got the flowers and the lavender from the fields behind the house and our garden)

So first of all for the drinks – besides the regular coffee I had some refreshing sparkling water with slices of lemon for this little lemon scent in the water and as an apperitiv for the guests after arriving an Jules Mumm with Acai flavor – a brasilian berry.

I made two cakes ( we were eight people – so I was afraid it wouldn´t be enoug to eat) – the small one was a sand cake and the other one has been a Pina Colada cake with pineapples and some rum. Yummy 🙂

I cut some fresh lavender from our garden to make the little bouquets for the plates.

I hope you all had a nice weekend and sorry for posting so late today. Oops.

Take care. See you. Love K.

Bath Storage and my new bathroom

05/06/2016 Keine Kommentare

Hi guys

today I am showing you some great products to get organized in your bathroon and they also look very chic.

There are many different styles and types but I decided to go with those clear acrylic ones.

First of all I am showing you where I am storing my Make-Up products. I decided to go with this little containers because I already had matching bathroom cabinets so I did´nt want to get new drawers. They have 3 Schubladen and little shiny silver knobs. I like them a lot and it fits a lot of stuff into them. They quality is great – it is a thick and stabiles material.

They are available in 17 colors !! Ordered them from amazon.

Inter Design Organizer

The next thing I have to help me get organized is this lipstick case. It holds eight lipsticks – it doesn´t matter which shape they have – of any brand.

Had to get a few more than one because I have way more than eight lipsticks but that is okay for me.

Bought this type at the local drugstore. Here is a similar one from amazon.

Lip Stick Organizer 24 pieces

Here are a few other organizing ideas I have used in my appartment earlier ….

I also purchased those bright petrol bathroom carptes. They match perfectly with the tiles. And I always like a good match 😉

This all took so long to pick out and decide which one to take and which one to leave. (Cause you can´t get everything or at least not at once)

Decorating and furnishing is a slow process (maybe not only for me) but in my opinion it is better to finish room by room otherwise you are gonna get crazy.

Think of a concept first. Choose the style and the colors you would like upfront and pick up some pieces you like to try out how they look. There is not so much difference in buying decoration stuff or clothing. Trust me.

Maybe I could have been quicker to get everything done but I rather spend time with my boyfriend than working in the house all by myself. (I think that´s totally understandable)

Although it takes a lot of time but when you are constant and patient you are gonna have a great place to live and of course the most important part – a place that feels home to you.

The next room I am going to finsh might be the living room.

Keep looking forward for more house updates and decoration ideas.

Take care. See you. Love K.

Easter Table Decoration

02/28/2016 Keine Kommentare

Hi guy´s

Easter egg hunt is coming closer and you might have planned a short vacation or a visit at your families house. My Easter is going to be definitely very stressful cause in the same week

I have to leave my apartment and move into my new house so there may not be so much Easter festivity for me this year – but that´s fine because after that I am living in the new house.

And I am really looking forward to it and showing you everything.

I ordered all this nice pieces from the Otto online shop.

In my opinion all we need is some color to feel better and much happier after this so long and cold winter. I always liked how pink and orange fit together and I found a tablecloth with little eggs on it which has definitely the same opinion like I am. 🙂

I got this nice neon orange coffee can. You can never get enough of coffee – or at least I can´t. It holds 1.5 litres so it might be enough for the first round of easter brunch.

The other items I got are a salt and pepper mill in pink. The look very futuristic. I first had to get used to this look. Further I got matching napkins with a orchid print on them. And of course – I always need those for decorating tables to dine – napkin holders. Those have sweet little teapots on them. They remind me a lot of the teapot and teacups of the beauty and the beast. Super cute.

The other thing I purchased is a wooden tray. You could also put the salt and pepper mills on it or anything else you like. It is available in two different sizes. This one is small.

And of course a matiching tablecloth with little colored easter eggs on it. Staying true to the color theme.

But now we are coming to my favorites – the black and white mugs with the different pops of colors and patterns. They look so great and so totally fresh for spring but in fact they do not match with the rest of the decoration I was showing you for easter and spring.

So here we go:
