I know, there is a lot of neon pink going on in this recipe. Simply to make up for the lack of complexity of this pie, because four ingredients is all you need! No baking talent is required either, which is perfect since I'm no bakerella. It started with a pack of shredded coconut. I Read article…

mini guide Berlin
A few of my favorite places in Berlin: ► Factory Girl /// Auguststraße 29 /// mon-sun 10-20 /// Super nice cafe (their fresh ginger tea comes with honey and a cute felt sleeve), with very friendly staff and fresh food. Hmmm! From your comfy chair at Factory Girl you have the perfect view on the Read article…
The first radishes
It's almost ridiculous how proud you can be of something that grows without any effort, like a radish. No green fingers or any particular talents are needed to grow them. But knowing that they come from my own tiny vegetable garden makes me happy. And now there's finally some space for the melon seedlings! Did Read article…
Street Food Thursday in Berlin
I wish I were in Berlin tonight so that I could visit Street Food Thursday at Markthalle9 in Kreuzberg again. On my first night in Berlin last week I walked there from my apartment and really really enjoyed it. The relaxed athmosphere, the friendly vendors, the good looking food booths, but above all: the delicious Read article…
Mariapaviljoen
Spending a long weekend in Holland with family and friends was really nice (and sounds like such a cliché, but it’s true!). I also spent some time at the hospital… or better: at the recently opened restaurant Mariapaviljoen in the old sanatorium in Den Bosch. Around the corner of where we used to live, you Read article…
Golden Cheese cookies
I loved reading all your comments on my misfortune baking. It's so good to know that I'm not the only one who messes up simple recipes. And finally I made something edible that tasted good! Inspired by my bakerella sister's Pacman cheese cookies, I tried to make them last weekend. And everyone liked them! So Read article…
Vitamin boost 2
It think I'm feeling it. After one week with a jet lagged feeling of Daylight Saving Time, I think I'm back on track. And I even experienced some spring cleaning urge! As you may know I'm a fruitjunkie and love almost any fruit. So for some additional spring vitamins I turned 4 pink grapefruits from Read article…
Tea from a doctor
While I'm enjoying an early morning coffee* at Creative Mornings Paris ( a monthly breakfast lecture series for creative types ), I'd like to show you this herbal tea I got from Giova. She told me she primarily bought these teas because she loved the packaging so much. I'm a sucker for beautiful packaging too. Read article…
The worst cupcakes ever!
I'm a terrible bakerella: I can completely mess up ready-made cupcakes from a box. And that's exactly what happened with these raspberry cupcakes. The topping should have been pale pink, fluffy and tasty. I added some red food pigment because I thought that would be fun and used fromage blanc in stead of fromage frais… Read article…
Carrot cake in a jar
My bakerella sister gave me this carrot cake in a jar. I'm not very good at baking and easily screw up the simplest recipes. Last week I even failed to boil some eggs… I had the flu, so there was an excuse, but still. I really enjoy baking though! And I also like eating carrot Read article…
