Working out is part of my life. Don’t worry, I’m not an obsessive fitness freak. Although, I was for a few years. In those years I worked out 6-7 days a week for 1 - 1½ hours per day. I was quite obsessive about it, because you know, we think we need to look a … Continue reading My morning work-out

Easy Summer Pasta
On our days off, we prefer not to spend too much time on cooking. Last week we had a lovely day out, did some shopping, walked around, and had a few beers. Lovely!

It is time for another baking adventure! I don’t know what it is with baking, but I always feel like I’ve achieved something. It’s not the same as when I've cooked something. Baking is more precise. If you get the measurements wrong, the whole recipe could fail! Which happened to me plenty of times! This … Continue reading More oat cookies! (including recipe)

Where do I go when I need solitude?
This is today’s prompt on day 27 of Bloganuary. That means 4 more days to go, so almost there! I can honestly say that it has been a fun challenge so far to participate, but also a challenging one.

I can’t help it, but my first thought is to write something funny. It is so tempting, but I will take this one a bit more seriously.
