Happy Easter! Time flies so fast and Easter is already here although it seems like Christmas was only yesterday. Like during Christmas, everything is full of decoration, just this time with Easter decoration like yellow chicks, Easter bunnies and chocolate eggs that I just couldn’t resist and had to buy some of it for my home. I bought some decorations for the eggs that look like different animals and you just have to stick animals’ ears, nose and eyes to the eggs. Pretty childish, I know, but the eggs look so sweet, as you can see in the photo below. I have to admit this was the…
I don’t know if anyone remembers an old Raffaello commercial with a ballerina dancing in a theatre and, at the end of the show, her boyfriend comes and gives her a box of Raffaello. I clearly remember Raffaello as one of the first sweets we were able to buy in Serbia after the crisis in the 90s and, even though I didn’t like coconut that much, I loved the cream it was filled with and the whole almonds inside. And to me as a child that video looked completely magical and that’s why I fell in love with the sweets. Raffaello was very popular in…
You will recognise true love immediately, in the first smile and the sparkle in his eyes. The true love will never look for excuses, you will recognise it by the strength it gives you to keep on moving. The true love will help you get through the most difficult times, standing by your side, holding your hand tight and keeping you from quitting. You will understand each other without a spoken word, when your eyes meet their look will tell you how they feel and their silence will speak more than hundred words. Your true love will always be there, ready to…
In Spain, the 6th and the 8th of December are public holidays so this entire week was pretty strange. I worked on Monday, had a day off on Tuesday, worked on Wednesday and again had a day off on Thursday. Today I’m working again and then it’s weekend. If it were for me, I could work like this every week. I think everyone would be more productive if they worked less, and had more time for themselves and their families. Stress would be reduced and everyone would be happier… I love December in Barcelona. The maximum temperature is around 15 degrees, the sky is cloudless and in the Sun…
Granola is something I always like to have in my kitchen. It’s delicious, healthy and great to combine with all sorts of ingredients. You can combine it with overnight oats, chia pudding, yoghurt, milk and fruits. Even when I travel, I bring a jar of homemade granola with me to have for breakfast cause you never know what kind of breakfast you’ll have in your hotel. Sometimes there are some healthy options, but sometimes you can only have bread, croissants or cakes and that’s really not something I’d eat for breakfast. Better safe than sorry, I always say. Even if I…
I can’t understand people who don’t eat breakfast because they are not hungry or they don’t have time in the morning. I simply can’t. Ok, we all sometimes oversleep and then rush out of the house forgetting coffee, breakfast and who knows what else. I hope this doesn’t happen so often to you, because I know from my experience how bad it feels . Another reason for skipping the breakfast – because you are not hungry in the morning-never happened to me. As soon as open my eyes, I am hungry and I need to eat something. Actually, I’m always a…
„Life is short, eat the dessert first.“ Jacques Torres I needed something sweet today, some creamy yet healthy cake to eat without guilt. When you like sweets as much as I do and you are 30 and something, you realize that large amounts of sweets aren’t good for your body, health, and aforementioned guilt. It happened so many times that I didn’t eat anything sweet for a long time, and then, in the moment of weakness, I eat enormous quantities of chocolate and destroy all the efforts to live healthy. It doesn’t make any sense, I know. About a year and a…
Who doesn’t like chocolate? Very few people, I guess. If I could speak for all the women in the world, I would say no one. Is it possible not to like that perfection that has so many times helped us to get over a failed exam, love crisis or a bad day at work? But I know there are girls and women out there who just don’t share my love for chocolate and that’s ok. Some people just don’t like sweet taste and some just avoid it because of so many times mentioned guilt, so common to women and which doesn’t…
Couple of days ago I was walking with a friend and came across some raw bars in a supermarket. They inspired me to make this simple recipe because it happened so many times that I spend the entire day outside and get hungry, so my blood sugar gets so low that even after I eat, I need a couple of hours to feel better. I understood that I would always need to carry a snack with me so I can raise my blood sugar immediately when it gets low. Normally I choose something that is easy to carry, like cookies or,…
