I know I kinda (read: big time) failed with Blogmas. Work and all the Christmas prep had me crazy busy and I just kinda couldn't keep up with it all.. BUT, last weekend I spent a lovely day at Rothenburg with my family, visiting the most gorgeous Christmas market! And not only the market, the whole town looks like a Christmas dream, it's...

Is there anything better than a bowl of steaming soup on a cold winter's day? I don't think so! This one is particularly easy to make and absolutely delicious if I say so myself. Only a few ingredients are needed to make this and surprise, surprise: butternut squash is one of them (I'm just a squash and pumpkin kinda girl haha). Here's how...

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Not least because you can watch all those movies you've seen a hundred times before all over again without feeling guilty for it. I'm an absolute creature of habit when it comes to my favourite Christmas movies. I have a set list of things to watch in the lead up to Christmas /in the holidays...

  I love Christmas! I said it before and I'll say it again, it's my favourite time of the year. The advent season, gift shopping, scarf weather, everything about this time of year is just perfect. I love decorating the house with lots of gold and whacking out all the Christmas candles and just generally creating a cosy atmosphere for this most tranquil...

I love the cosiness that comes with dark winter days. Staying in, treating yourself to fancy homemade porridge (after a long lazy lie in of course) and a hot cuppa. Starting the day with reading in bed with the lights dimmed and candles lit and just generally taking the stress out of everyday life. I'm trying to have a completely free-of-plans, all-to-myself Sunday...

Christmas time and winter in general is baking time for me. I love trying out different new recipes, making traditional Christmas biscuits and just generally have the flat smell of delicious baked goods. And what better smell could there be than that of cinnamon?! Right, there's nothing more Christmas appropriate, well scented and delicious! That paired with my growing obsession with everything Swedish,...

No Blogmas would be complete without a Christmas Playlist right? So for Day 3 I thought I'd share with you my ultimate list of songs that get me in the festive spirit. I listen to these songs over and over again throughout December and don't even get tired of them. It's a good mix of classics and more modern songs, as well as...

Gosh another two months have passed by without me finding the time to even recap them on here! I don't know how life got so crazy busy all of a sudden?! I feel like I'm just rushing from one big milestone/ exciting moment to another without so much as a blink of the eye! Is this adulting? Then boy it's exhausting! ...
