Each year I am trying to bake something really cool for Mr. B who loves football. After baking a great stadium last year, I went for something "simpler" this year.

I decided to take a recipe that until now everybody loved and always turns out great: the monster brownies by Cynthia Barcomi.


I had ordered the eatable field from MyToys and the candles, players and gates from Nostalgie im Kinderzimmer ages ago. It was such a great fun to see everything finally getting together.

This weekend it was girls' night so after we had had our wok (sesame beef, veggies and glass noodles) I surprised the girls with a rice krispies treat, an American dessert not known much over her. I had the idea when reading Cupcakes and Cashmere and then checked out this recipe.

Initially I was a bit troubled with the measures since they were all American but checking similar recipes on Chefkoch.de I decided to do this:


Melt and Brown 120 gramm of butter. When it smells nutty add the marshmallows (one bag - 300 gramm). When they got all soft I added a pit of sea salt and three cups (small coffee cups) of rice krispies.

I had buttered a small oven dish and spread everything with one of my silicon backing "helpers". I put the whole thing in a fridge immediately since I had no time to wait for  it to cool.

The girls loved it and it was so easy to prepare. I was done in 20 minutes max.

By the way if you have troubles finding Rice Krispies in Germany use the Kellog's
Store Finder.

One of the things I recently discovered are bathroom sink plugs. I read about them in several journals and one of my friends got one for Christmas. When I got so excited about this little piece she gave me one for my birthday.

Find them online via amazon or plot.

I got the princess one <3 <3 <3!

Having for quite some time now followed a couple of blogs on the daily basis, I found myself wondering if I should not myself engage in blog writing. Not only do I love to write but I also love to bake, create, indulge in interior design and obviously to shop. Plus, I thought for quite some time that I should publish my travelling advises so that people do not themselves have to spend hours browsing through the internet but can actually rely on my tours, notes and first hand advices.


So, when I finally was convinced enough to start this blog, I spent hours thinking about its title. Then it finally hit me: it was some years ago when a friend of mine sent me the song by Martin Kesici entitled "Angel of Berlin" and told me that it so reminded her of me.


For those of you who never came across it: 


Meet her on a stormy Monday
