After yet another quite stressful week I’m really looking forward to the upcoming weekend. A good friend of mine will come for a visit. We didn’t see each other for quite a while now and will give our best to make up for the lost time :). I wish you all two wonderful and relaxing […]

You may have already recognized it: I love zucchini! The yellow ones as much as the green ones. The small examples as much as the big summer squashes. I already shared two of my favorite zucchini recipes with you (Baked Courgettes and Pasta with Zucchini Sauce). Today I would like to present you the extreme

My Friendship Book from 1994 Do you still remember Friendship Books from your adolescence?
