Autumn Must-Haves

Image
It's all about being cosy and warm in autumn. As the weather is getting worse, there is less sunshine and more rainy clouds, it is good to keep yourself cosy and warm at home. Or on the go if needed. I personally, love the summer and I could live during summer all year long. It is just much comfier I think, you don't need to think too long about how to combine your outfit so that you won't be freezing but also not too hot. And in summer it is warm, at least most of the time, you can do so many things outside and enjoy the nice weather. In autumn you have to think more about amusement at home, I think.                                               Well, so here are my Autumn essentials. :)                             1) Some good Hot Chocolate I am not that much a hot chocolate person, I could d...

Recipe | Noodles with Salmon and Tomato Sauce

Image
Well, after work I got hungry and decided to cook myself something that I cooked with my best friends back in Vienna some time ago. And this is what I cooked: Ingredients (for one person) -a bit of spaghetti noodles -2 small tomatoes - half of a big onion -some garlic -50 g of smoked salmon -a cup of creme freche -salt, pepper, oil 1) First it is best to chop up the tomatoes, salmon and onion into small pieces. Also, use a garlic press for the garlic. 2) Put some oil into a pan and add the onions. 3) After some time, also add the garlic and let cook for a while. 4) After that add the salmon and wait until it changes its colour. You can also add a spritz of lemon juice. 5) Add the tomatoes and let cook for a while again. 6) In the meanwhile you can start cooking the noodles as usual. 7) When you feel like the onion, garlic, salmon and tomato mix has been enough cooked, add the creme freche and mix everything together, and let it cook again. 8) ...

Eryk's Beauty Haul And Pictures Of The Day

Image
T\Last night Maya kept us awake for so long that we were totally exhausted. She was just like a newborn baby that needs to get fed every three hours. We didn't know what was wrong with her but she just kept scratching and hitting the cage walls and it was just so loud that we were scared that our house mates would wake up because of the noise. I got out of bed about eight times and Eryk about five or so. It was just horrible. She had enough food, so she was not hungry but when we took her to our bed she wanted to play but she was also very aggressive and kept biting us. And so we put her back into the cage and the scratching began again and so on and so on throughout half of the night. In the morning we somehow managed to put her to sleep by massaging her belly and head. Well, so then we could finally go to bed at about five in the morning. This also means that we were sleeping until twelve and stayed in bed awake until about one which is just totally horrible! And as Eryk had to g...

Foggy Days And College Snacks

Image
Today Eryk and I woke up earlier (finally) as I wanted to wash my hair and we wanted to go to the bakery to have our breakfast somewhere in the park or so. So once I've finished getting ready we went to the bakery and had some tasty cream and fudge doughnuts, pies and a soup. Then we went back home and I thought that I'd take the bus to College from the bakery already, but I still had 45 minutes left so I had a nice tea at home and then I took the bus to College. I thought I was going to be late but I arrived just on time. I had French today so I was happy to be there as I enjoy these lessons more than Spanish. After the course I headed back home and when I arrived there I made myself a cup of tea again and I started doing my French Homework as it is a lot of work that needs to be done. But as the weather is not nice any more, and it's just foggy and rainy, I decided to have a nap for only twenty minutes. However, I was too sleepy to get up and woke up after an hour. Then ...

Empty Products | September

Image
Today I decided that it is about time again to show you the empties I've collected throughout the past weeks. There are not many of them, but still, there are a few worth showing I think. Let's start with two different washing products. First we have a beautiful 400ml bottle of the Garnier Ultimate Blends "The sleep restorer" shampoo. I've bought it some time ago and probably the best thing about this shampoo is the smell. Honestly, if you don't have this shampoo and you are not planning on getting it- don't smell it in shops!  Also, it looks very tempting and it says that it is good for dry and frizzy hair. Well, I don't necessary have dry hair because I just recently cut my dry and split ends. And my hair gets greasy too quickly in my opinion, so I'd probably need a shampoo that won't give me more moisture. But my hair is totally frizzy after it dries. No matter if I let it dry on its own or if I blow dry it. It always is frizz...

Recipe | Rice with Mushroom and Chicken Breast Fillet Sauce

Image
Today I had College and we were supposed to get enrolled, but from the whole class only two got, so it was quite a mess and really annoying, but well. Looks like we need to deal with this. So on my way home I decided to treat myself and bought some ingredients for today's dinner. Today you'll learn how to cook this:  The ingredients for 2 people (at least me and Eryk) -1 chicken breast fillet ( YOU CAN COOK IT WITHOUT MEAT AS WELL!) -1 cup of rice -1 double cream -half of a big onion -half of a punnet mushrooms -some Vegeta (vegetable seasoning) -pepper, salt, vegetable spread 1) So what I did first was chopping up the meat, mushrooms and onions in small bits and putting them into separate bowls. 2) Then I took a little bit of vegetable spread (you can use oil as well) and put it into a pan. 3) After the spread melted I added the chopped up onion and let it cook for a short time. 4) In the meanwhile I put the rice into a small pot...

Rainy Days and Homeware Shopping

Image
Today Eryk and I stayed in bed for too long again, but I could finally get some proper sleep after last night and three days of work. We woke up to see raindrops on the windows. It was raining. Really raining, and it still is. It is foggy and raining too much, definitely. But still, I thought it would be a good day to go to Matalan and buy some things for our home. Or let's say room. Pay day was just three days ago, so hopefully we will find what we need. We also need to buy food for Maya as we realised last night that there is no cat food left. So she had to eat her ferret crisps and cucumber. But at least I took a cute picture of her and myself. I mean, I don't look too good, but you can see Maya's teeth and she looks so angry, so funny! And in the evening we also took her to our bed and she was sleeping so cute! We were just watching her and laughing because of how funny she was sleeping. I don't know if that is even comfortable?? When we finally g...
