On Friday, we celebrated the birthday of my favorite guy. As birthdays tend to have a way of being lots of fun, they also come with a big portion of too little sleep. So, our Saturday was all the lazier. We ran a few errands, cleaned up the leftovers from the party and then headed…
The challenge is simple and goes like this: “No carbs for dinner, but plenty of water all day!”. New month, new goals. Easy as that! But, obviously it needs some explaining: Ever since returning from our trip to Dubai & the Maldives back in May, I have slowly watched the scale go up a bit…
Sunday nights are always pasta nights at our place! Usually my sister joins in on the fun and we sit down with a big bowl of spaghetti bolognese and a bottle of red wine to end the weekend. However, once in a while it is fun to switch it up and go for something other…
Last Sunday, Mike and I decided to venture away from our regular bagel place for breakfast and try something new. I’ve been wanting to go to Dots21 to try their breakfast for a while, since the sushi there is always good (the asparagus-truffle roll is to die for!!) and the location is perfect for summer (last…
This past weekend I was chatting about my daily smoothie routine with Katja, because I received the amazing Kenwood smoothie2GO last week and have been going a bit smoothie-crazy!! Katja has the same smoothie maker and told me that she had recently been adding watermelon to her breakfast smoothie. I was hooked the second I…
It has been quite some time since my last fitness post. The main reason for that is that I simply don’t work out as frequently anymore and it feels wrong to me to give you guys tipps on how to stay active, while I am kind of struggling with it myself. Life has been super…
Mike and I both have an insanely large appreciation for good food, and while we love cooking together on the weekends, we also love to experience really special and one-of-a-kind meals at restaurants. When I think about all the amazing dates we’ve been on, our dinner at Nobu in Dubai is definitely the #1! It…
After going through hundreds of photos, I finally put together a little collection of our trip to Dubai this past week. We had 5 full days and I still feel like there is SO much we have yet to see. But since Mike and I both loved the city, we’ll be back for sure and…
These past few days here in Vienna have been surprisingly warm and sunny – you could almost call it a little preview of summer. And for summery days I love a yummy gold drink with a splash of citrus, so I’ve been making this super easy homemade lemonade almost daily. Again, not really sure this…
A few weeks ago, Mike and I made lamb meat-balls, pita bread, yogurt with fresh mint and greek salad for dinner. While we learned that we’re both not the biggest fans of minced lamb meat, I really loved the yogurt with mint and greek salad. Since then the salad has been my go-to lunch for…
