Decorating of The Easter Branch // Paastak versieren

Spring is here and Easter is almost upon us and here in the Netherlands you can find an abundance of chocolate eggs and decorations in the shops. You can also find these particular Easter branches (paastakken) for sale in supermarkets and florists. I'm not sure whether this tradition exists only in the Netherlands or if people also do it elsewhere in Europe, but the idea of it is to have these branches in your home to celebrate the arrival of the spring season.

March Beauty Faves & Chit Chat

It's warming up outside and winter is fast becoming a faded memory, finally! March was a busy month for me and I kept it pretty neutral and basic when it came to the beauty products that I used.

My Night Time Routine

I think that everyone has their own routine at the end of a busy day. That could be jumping straight into your pajamas or having a long soak in the bath. Whatever suits you to unwind and get ready for some well earned beauty sleep.

What I've been up to // Update

Well it's been a busy couple of weeks but I've managed to squeeze in some time to do a few things like baking and cooking healthier meals. I can't stand being bored but at the same time I don't like being rushed off my feet because I'm so busy. I prefer my days to be somewhere in between but unfortunately it cannot always be that way. Anyway, what have I been up to?

hola, amigos! // Learning a new language

Learning a new language is never easy and especially for someone like me who has never been able to truly wrap my head around any other language than my mother tongue. But that doesn't mean a girl can't try though and I've decided to take up learning Spanish.

Bursting blueberry muffins

When you're trying to live a happier, healthier life I think it's extremely important to treat yourself from time to time. That's why we decided that if we're going to have a dessert, then we'd only have one during the weekends. This doesn't mean that we pig out on loads of bad stuff after dinner, but more like we make our own desserts when we fancy it. When you make something yourself you know exactly what you're putting into it and therefore cut out most (if not all) of the preservatives and unexpected additives that food manufacturers add into the desserts you can buy ready done.

3 Great Drugstore Mascaras // Musthaves

I feel like I'm constantly in search of new mascaras that are both affordable and really good to work with my seriously stubborn lashes. Now I feel like I can narrow it down to my favourite three mascaras out of the ones I used. These are the ones that I will certainly consider buying again and would recommend to others.

Salmon & Broccoli Quiche // recipe

Finding the time to cook a meal from scratch can be extremely challenging when you're trying to juggle work and a family at the same time, but I think it is important to feed my family healthy home cooked meals.
