Whyyy does it always rain on me...???

Calando

U.S. Polo Assn.

Hunter

Barbour

It´s raining all day long the past few days and I´m thinking about this Travis song and humming it to myself.

Girls, we are having officially summer since last thursday, but no hot and sunny days lately. With some rainy days in a row I´m always starting to feel a bit depressed and gloomy and my chocolate consumption is incresing in no time. Bad for bikini shaping and my mood, too.

So I browsed the internet and picked some rainboots that I liked. Actually I haven´t worn rainboots since I was five, but this fall I´m interested in investing in some Hunter Boots. Not necessary in bright colours as trendy expensive pieces should be classics that you wear a long time. Will keep you updated on that.

But for now, IT´S MEANT TO BE SUMMER! So no boots to be ordered yet! Should be picking dressy flipflops instead. I got to go...

Oh, how PINTRESTing Wednesday!

Hi there! I decided to join the PINTRESTing Wednesday hosted by Michelle over at The Vintage Apple.


I have a crush about this amazing website since the last weeks and a pinned a good number of inspiring stuff on my diffrent boards.


You can probably guess that I have a crush on mint as you have a look at my pins.

As time is short in the morning and I have hardly time to get ready and started, such a Pancake-Mix might be a livesafer! Will absolutely try that.

Essential things for my future garden

There are some flowers, plants and accessoirs I consider essentail for my future garden as this will be the place where I will spend a lot of my time in spring, summer and autumn. Winter perhaps too, at least to bild a snowman, in case there is enough snow.


Let´s start with the flowers I would really love to have.


Peonies are the most beautiful flowers. They are so elegant but not as sophisticated as a classic rose. I am sure there will be lots of peonies in my future garden to keep me supplied in may and june with this amazing flower and their gorgeous scent.
I am really lucky to have a fabulouse godmother with a green thumb as she did some offshots of the beautiful peonies that we had at my partens house before I sold it last year. Now she takes care of these offshots until we find a house of our own. I really appreciate this as there is a part of my old garden moving in our new with us.

Another plant I really love are magnolias in their every shape as star magnolias or tulip magnolias in all shades of white, off-white, light pink and hot pink. Over the years and with a lot of care they can grow to a real tree. It´s really romatic to do a picknick beneath such a tree.

But the classic among beautiful flowers are roses especially english roses. They are the right flower for so many occaisons. I have to admit that I like the wild ones much better than the straight long ones you get at the flower shop. Just having a look at an english walled garden at a cottage makes me happy.  In combination with lavander it´s always romatic and practical all at once because vermins won´t eat the beauty. Not to mention the enchanting smell of roses and lavander.

So let´s move to another category I don´t want to miss in my garden and that are fruits and vegetables.  It would be great if there are old trees that are really old and gnarly and space to do some gardening to have fresh vegetables once in a while.

And the best thing, which is absolutely necessary for my garden, is a beach chair...or more like a love seat beach chair! In Germany you call it "Strandkorb" but I´m not that sure about the right translation. 
Literarily I can see myself sitting there with a delicious glas of light and tasty white wine and a romatic novel watching the sundown.

So hopefully the weather will improve the next days that I can have a little sip of wine on my balkony, even without the suitable garden or seating.

Woooh excited...

Just found a house on the internet and placed an inquiry for more information about it. It´s near to our current flat. Not in northern Bremen but in a smaller village called Ritterhude really near by. 

As I saw this image of the entrance I fell in love with it. The door and the stairs are adorable! Exactly what I was wishing for!

There are some things we might have to work on and have to redecorate but for the first view from the pictures these are probarbly things we can handle. 

The facade might be another thing we have to redo not just because of the look but for energetical reasons, too. But we will get to that later, when we did a house tour. Hope the agent will contact us quichly.

STOP, let´s face it, I´m getting overexcited and I have to control myself! But as there was only crappy offers ( sorry, but it´s so true) on until recently this is a ray of light for me! 

Happy sunday to all of you!

   

Switching

Hope I won´t need this too often! ;o)

Today I decided to switch my blog to english. At first I was hesitating as I thought I can´t do it properly. But actually you know what? You can´t fail if you don´t try, right?

I may not be a native speaker but a challenge is always a thing I go with and without practise you can´t get better. 

Right, let´s get started!
