Visiting my Family!

DAY 1

Over Christmas I went to visit my family who live near Münster.
My family and I stayed in an awesome farmhouse for three days.
The family lived in the actual house which was over 300! years old, and we stayed in the little lodge next to it.
I don't think words can actual describe how awesome it was and the old vibe you got with it.
I took over 200 pictures and it was the worst to only pick a couple to post.
There were only two houses around and they had a horse stable next to their house.
It's actually called a horse station for when you are horseback riding and wanna stay somewhere. You and your horse can both stay there!!

On the 25th we went to visit my mom's side of the family. It was great to see my cousins, aunts,grandparents... again.
We all met at my grandparents' and had a huuge meal. Everyone brought a course so we created a menu and we all were full!

Landhaus am Dahlberg

This was the room upstairs, where my sister and I stayed in. It was really simple but had amazing Christmas decoration!

Hello!

Get ready for day 2 tomorrow!

Day 12

CHRISTMAS

The weekend before Christmas I finished up wrapping all my presents!
I turned up my Christmas music, sat at my desk, and laid out all my decorations, presents and wrapping paper and put on some candles.
I pretty much built up a Christmas workshop.

I bought some candy canes to put them under the bows and shopped of some fir branches from my garden. This year I chose pretty plain wrapping paper because I wanted to go all out on the decorations.
At NANU NANA I picked up different sizes and variations of bows and ribbons, which makes all the difference and is probably the easiest way to decorate.
I also bought some chalk board stickers, which are amazing. They came with some chalk and you can reuse them or you can erase and write again and don't ruin the wrapping paper.
I figured that a hot glue gun comes very very handy when decoration, cause then you can literally stick everything that comes to your mind on there!

xx Merry Christmas
See ya'll next year <3

Day 11 Special

EASY COOKIES

So I already have all my blog posts done for blogmas and it's Tuesday evening at the moment. But I made some amazing cookies this afternoon and wanted to share the recipe with you, and it also matches the other Day 11 post so here you go!!

What you need:

200g butter (at room temperature)
300g caster sugar
1 large egg
325g self raising flour
a dash of milk
200g of any chocolate you like (you can choose however much and what you like)

Let's go:

-Preheat you oven to 200C (390F)
-whisk butter and sugar together until it's creamy
-crack in the egg and mix it through
-add the flour a bit at a time
-break up the chocolate (I chose Milka luflee) and add it to the mixture
-grab the dough from underneath and spread the chunks
-shape the mixture into 10 balls (amount depends on how big you want your cookies)
-put on baking tray covered in baking paper
-bake for 10-12 minutes (mine took about 9!)
-let them cool

(I took half the ingredients and made 4!)

Day 8

MY YEAR IN MUSIC

In October 2014 I decided to go premium on Spotify and it was the best idea ever. I know not everyone wants to pay 10 bucks every month for music but otherwise every song would be like one euro or something.

Anyways, I absolutely love it comes in very handy cause you have almost every song on there and can create playlists blah blah. I'm sure you know how to listen to music.

Spotify does this thing, at the end of every year, where you can find out who your top artist is or how much you were listing to music that year.

It's called "YEAR IN MUSIC"

So today I'm going to share with you what I've been listening to this year!

And let me know if there are any artists I'm totally missing out on!!
