So, this is X-Mas… Again. Is it really possible that 12 months are already gone? Unbelievable. I’m driving home for X-Mas today and I expect to have a nice time with my friends and family. It’s the time of the year, one should look back and remind oneself of the good things in life. The

Pic by Franzi. Okay, I have to admit something: I only started to think about X-Mas gifts last weekend. So, there’s not much time left for any DIY presents to create. But I had some nice, easy and fast ideas. One of them I wanna share with you today. Actually, this idea was not my

Pic by Franzi. It’s always the same during the Advent season: Chocolate Santas, X-Mas stollen, cookies – everything we eat these days is sweet. That’s why I needed a (short) pause and decided to eat a healthy classic with a twist: Truffled potatoes and cream cheese with herbs. The truffled potatoes look beautiful in their
