Keks ... cookie ... Plätzchen


Christmas is over but it doesn't mean that I do not love to eat and enjoy all the delicious cookies or as it says in German Plätzchen or Keks (you speak it similar to cakes). The word Plätzchen is mostly used during Christmas time because of the very special recipes and ingredients. Keks is used all year round for cookies and biscuits. I am so lucky because I still have some Plätzchen left!!

My day started like this:




This Plätzchen made a friend of mine and I think these are the biggest Plätzchen I ever had. But the best thing is they are so yummy!!

Have a great (after Christmas and still loving the Christmas food) Sunday!!

crumbly, nibbling greetings

Happy New Year



Christmas is over and we already started with a new year! I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays and started with new energy and lots of plans and new projects.

Mine will start pretty soon. It will be awesome and a lot to do, but I will tell you later.

For now I started my year on Etsy with translating my descriptions and informations in to German and also with a very NEW treasury:



Someday I will ride the great bird 
Into the sky, into the grey 
And will take a bright secret of mine 
Into the grey, grey sky.

And the light will come, piercing my eyes 
Out of the sky, out of the grey 
Come blinding and searing these eyes 
Out of the grey, grey sky.  

And I will find comfort in this 
In the wide sky, in the wide grey 
In the painful dark brightness of light 
Light of the grey, grey sky.

My secret will fly away home 
Into the sky, into the grey 
And the great bird will follow it there 
Into the grey, grey sky. 

 And I will be riding that bird 
Bird of the sky, bird of the grey 
And I will come home once again 
Home to the grey, grey sky.  

But for now I am weighted, earthbound 
One of the mud, one of the ground 
And I write this sad song to sad sound 
Girl of the pavement sighs.
