I’m so excited to share some gorgeous party submissions from Germany! I had no idea I was surrounded by such beautiful talent. This Cookie Dessert table by Regina was created for guests attending a Golden Wedding. She chose the brown, dark red and golden color scheme to fit the theme and to comliment the changing of the seasons. All cookies, [...]
Halloween is over. To me that means the holiday season has really started. Especially since we live in Germany and I have to consider shipping times. I have so many things going on and so many things I want to do! I literally have 8 windows up on my screen (good connection via my phone for once!!) [...]
We lived in Heidelberg for a year and half and I never really felt culture shock. Been in Bavaria for about 8 months and have definitely felt culture shock. I don’t think it’s Bavaria so much as our own personal circumstances, but still. There are many pros, but thepros are evenly weighed down by the [...]
These are just the perfect fall time treat! The combination of fluffy pumpkin cake with a just sweet enough frosting is simply delicious. I followed Paula Deen’s recipe which is for pumpkin bars, but I turned them into cupcakes and it made 24. Mmmhmm. Delicious. Would even go great with a cup of coffee in the [...]

It’s still in the process, but coming together a bit more, finally! Above her bed is some artwork that was DIY. I bought [...]
Our trip to Alghero, Italy was incredible. I miss it so much and am already daydreaming about visiting again. What really helped to make it an incredible experience was where we stayed during our visit. Casa Anna is a fully furnished two bedroom apartment in a residential neighborhood of Alghero. The apartment is decorated beautifully [...]
Trier is Germany’s oldest city founded in 16 BC as part of the Holy Roman Empire. As a favored destination of Roman emperors, the city thrived as a center of commerce after the collapse of Rome. Each summer the city pays tribute to it’s rich history by hosting a Roman Festival. What’s makes the event really come alive is [...]
