In 2013 I tried my best to send a little more snail mail. Opening your mailbox to find something else than publicity and bills is so nice, isn't it? In a few weeks my family will be sending our New Year's photo and we're currently in the middle of finding a new concept. Sending cards Read article…
DIY
Summer Froyo
Ever since my trip to Berlin in May, I dream of frozen yogurt. Somehow Berlin has this froyo culture which we don't quite have in France. So I decided to make some myself. And it turns out, it's super easy! As I'm not very fond of toppings and like the pure taste of frozen yogurt, Read article…
Better than a Bounty
I know, there is a lot of neon pink going on in this recipe. Simply to make up for the lack of complexity of this pie, because four ingredients is all you need! No baking talent is required either, which is perfect since I'm no bakerella. It started with a pack of shredded coconut. I Read article…
Some X-rays
Earlier this week I showed you the result of my little spring project: our submarine yellow door. A fresh new color on the door requires new "art". So I replaced the pale blue prints of our staircase by something new. I found several vintage x-ray scans that have the same color as the staircase (<- Read article…
Yellow Submarine
The name of the paint that I won on Iris' blog C-more makes me want to sing: ♪ Yellow Submarine! It's such a bold and vibrant color: perfect for a little spring project since the weather is so cold and grey. The door of our apartment had this weird lilac blueish color. I don't even Read article…
Golden Cheese cookies
I loved reading all your comments on my misfortune baking. It's so good to know that I'm not the only one who messes up simple recipes. And finally I made something edible that tasted good! Inspired by my bakerella sister's Pacman cheese cookies, I tried to make them last weekend. And everyone liked them! So Read article…
A sunny Cinemagraph
As you can see, Rose really enjoyed the wonderful weather we had this weekend! A few hours later she (and me) looked more like a tomato… we didn't quite feel the power of the sun because there was a light breeze. The same breeze that is playing with her feather earrings :o) I'm by far Read article…
Happy Easter Weekend!
Through this quirky couple designed by Anna Sjons Nilsson*, I would like to wish you a very happy Easter weekend! What are you up to? Eating chocolate? Going on an Easter egg hunt? Sharing time with family, friends and pets? *Spotted at the Konsthantverkarna boutique in Stockholm.
Sistermail 2
My sister decided to start sending me more snail mail. She told me I should write about it on my blog. So I will! Always listen to your little sister! For Sistermail 2 I received a transparent envelope with puffy red hearts inside. And a freecard by Søstrene Grene, a famous Scandinavian chain store where Read article…
The worst cupcakes ever!
I'm a terrible bakerella: I can completely mess up ready-made cupcakes from a box. And that's exactly what happened with these raspberry cupcakes. The topping should have been pale pink, fluffy and tasty. I added some red food pigment because I thought that would be fun and used fromage blanc in stead of fromage frais… Read article…
