weekly FAVORITES

Hey guys!
Today: Tell me your favorite "fall candle scent" in the comments :)
So like every Sunday I'm going to show you my favorites today. It's not the regular favorites post where I show you random stuff I enjoyed this month. I will show you my favorites in five specific categories.

- favorite thing to watch
- favorite person
- favorite thing I did
- favorite piece of clothing
- favorite tumblr post
Then I'm going to rate each thing with hearts from one to five! ♥


1. Favorite thing to watch:
My favorite thing to watch is still Pretty Little Liars. In my last post I was in season 3...now it's season 5.
I have to say that it's not my favorite show, I've ever watched but I kinda like the tension that comes with it even though it stretches into infinity ans you still don't really know anything. No spoilers!!

♥♥

2. Favorite person: (On social media)
Is (again) a tumblr blog. I spoke about Geordie Gray in one of my previous posts before and only found out that she also has a tumblr blog. It's @mtvgeneration and it to me is really inspiring. I love that she answers so many asks and is really really honest.

♥♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did: 
This week I climbed up a mountain here in Germany, called Brocken. It's 1141 m high and we started at Torfhaus and walked up the route called "Goetheweg". It weirdly took us 2 hours to get up there but over three to walk back. But it was loads of fun and it's just kinda this "f*ck we did it feeling when you reach the top".

♥♥♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:
I haven't bought any new clothes in quite a long time, but I'm about to head to Cologne this week to go shopping!
Until then I'm going to be wearing my good old fave. It's my Hard Rock Cafe shirt that I got in New York. It's just really classy, and goes with literally everything. (I'm pretty sure everyone knows how it looks like.)

♥♥

5. Favorite tumblr post:

So I'm on a break at the moment which means I have a lot of time for things like tumblr. That makes it really hard to decide on a favorite post in an entire week. I guess that's what you'd call first world problems..or probably just mine.

♥♥♥♥♥

I chose this because I was gone for a year and all my friends I
saw again this year told me how much I've changed.
(not necessarily in a bad way, I hope.) 

♥♥

I'm sorry this Sunday was so short, I was in a hurry but promise next week will be longer!!

Nut Wedges

TUESDAY

So I'm kinda swerving into the baking lane(?) and I found a new recipe book on the book shelf. I looked through it and found "Nussecken", and because it's almost Christmas, I guess, I made them. It got me into a really festive mood and I feel like it was a mistake to make them because it's mid October. But you can never be too early for Christmas baking!

What you need:

-*250g flour

-*100g sugar

-*100g margarine

-*1 packet vanilla sugar

-*2 eggs

-*1 teaspoon backing powder

_ _ _ _ _ 

-1 jar apricot jam

-100g chopped almonds

-100g chopped hazelnuts

-3 tablespoons water

_ _ _ _ _ 

-200g bittersweet chocolate

First step:

Mix all ingredients (*) in a bowl until you get a stiff dough. You can knead it if it gets too hard.

Second step:

Grease the baking tray with margarine. (Don't forget the corners!)

Third step:

Place the dough onto the tray and smooth it out.

Fourth step:

Spread out the apricot jam onto the dough.

Fifth step:

Take the leftover ingredients and bring them to boil in a pot.

(Don't forget to stir them, they will get burnt quickly!)

Sixth step:

Spread the hot mixture on top of the apricot jam.

Seventh step: 

Put the tray into the oven at 175C (~350F) for about 25-30 minutes.

Eighth step:

Take it out of the oven and let it cool down.

Ninth step:

Cut the dough into many little triangle shapes. But keep it on the tray.

Tenth step:

Melt the chocolate in a bowl on top of hot water.

Eleventh step:

Dip two corners of each nut wedge into the chocolate.

TADAA!

Tell me in the comments what your favorite fall/winter recipe is :)

If you bake the nut wedges, tag them with #k80cake on instagram so I can see them :)

Apple pie

MONDAY

Hi!
Throughout October I'm getting more and more into the autumnal vibe and because it's my favorite season it's not that hard.
Little update side note: I even started doing yoga. Firstly to kinda built up my lost flexibility again and secondly so I could contort my body into ridiculous shapes in order to make up for the lack of full length mirrors I have.

But anyways, today I have a recipe we already made twice this month, because it's so good.

What you need:

-1kg apples
_ _ _ _ _

-*150g Margarine   
-*100g Sugar
-*1 Egg
-*1 tablespoon Milk
-*300g Flour
-*2 teaspoons backing powder
_ _ _ _ _ 

-100g Sugar
-2 teaspoons cinnamon

First step:
take about 16 apples and peel them. Then cut them into thin slices.

Second step:
knead all ingredients with a star * to a shortcut in the same  order they are listed.
If it doesn't form into a smooth dough use your hands!

Third step:
take 2/3 of the dough roll it out and smooth it into a greased springform pan. pull up the edges.
put the other third into the fridge.

fourth step:
take the sliced apples and place them onto the dough in the pan.

fifth step:
mix 100g of sugar with the cinnamon and spread them on top of the apples in the pan.

sixth step:
get the leftover dough from your fridge and roll it out. layer it on top of the apples to cover them.

seventh step: 
put it in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes at 170C (~340F)

eighth step:
enjoy!

tell me in the comments if you liked it and tag the cake on instagram with #k80cake .

What I Like

weekly FAVORITES

Hey guys!

So like every Sunday I'm going to show you my favorites today. It's not the regular favorites post where I show you random stuff I enjoyed this month. I will show you my favorites in five specific categories.
- favorite thing to watch
- favorite person
- favorite thing I did
- favorite piece of clothing
- favorite tumblr post
Then I'm going to rate each thing with hearts from one to five! ♥

1. Favorite thing to watch:

Staring with favorite thing to watch this week was Pretty little liars. We bought the third season this week (I know we're very far behind) and are watching it since then. Friday night we watched the first of six DVDs. We ordered some pizza, made the room pitch black, sat on the sofa and watched it. I love how it kinda started like the first season and how you still know kinda nothing. And I gotta say, that Hannah is rocking the new hairstyle! 

♥♥♥

2. Favorite person: (I follow on social media)

I watched a YouTube video and I loooved the clothes she was wearing, so I looked up where she got them from and it's this British (I believe) store. Lazy Oaf

I instantly fell in love with the first shirt I saw and I wish I had enough money to buy the entire store. I think now it's time for me to go to London again. Just for the single reason to spent my money in Lazy oaf.

Oh! and I also follow them on instagram now so that's why they're my favorite "person" I follow on social media this week.

Anyone wanna buy me this shirt??

 
♥♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did:
My favorite thing I did was getting 14 points (an A) in my first math exam of the year. It's probably a weird fave because I'm not a school fan at all I try to talk about as little as possible especially during break, but I was really happy and wanted to document it^^.

♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:

My favorite piece of clothing is a kinda red/autumn-color sweater. I already have it in brown and it's my favorite sweater so I bought it again. Yes, I'm one of those people. It's from H&M and was 19,99 euro.

Sweater

♥♥♥♥

5. Favorite tumblr post:

I rebloggt this pic yesterday and it's my favorite because of the single reason that I am so exited for my concert, which is in 167 days 5 hours and 14 minutes. (I have a countdown on my phone!!!)

FALL

LIFESTYLE🍃

Hallo(ween)!!
I think now it is okay to officially say that is fall. All the leaves in the forest behind my house are either lying on the ground or are in all the pretty colors. I put up the candles in my room, made a Halloween Playlist and bought some mini pumpkins. 

I am the biggest fan of fall. I love the colors, the clothing and just the coziness that comes with it. I think the temperature might be just perfect (at least, sometimes). When it's not pouring rain, and you sit in your room with tea, you can make the most autumnal walks and take amazing pictures.
 Oh and who isn't exited for Halloween?! 🎃

I have this huge window in my room where you can see miles and far away there are some fields and sometimes especially in fall you can see hundreds of birds flying at the same time which might just be my new favorite thing.

So first things first: food. I put together my favorite lunch for fall last Saturday and I was so excited of how autumnal it looked, that I had to take pictures and show you.

Autumnal lunch 

-natural yogurt

-muesli

-nectarine

-raspberries

-honey

-broccoli soup (link)

-some orange juice (it's not orange juice,

 it's orange juice)

And the sky must be the prettiest I've ever seen. 

                        

             

                                                                                         
My Halloween/Fall Spotify Playlist
(I'm probably gonna add many more songs, so I'll keep you updated)

Back to school

LIFESTYLE

Hello!!

Its the time of the year again where we go shopping for school. And because I've been in school for the last weeks again, I figured now would be a good time to show you what I bought for it.
So if you love everything crafty, stationary and pen and papery, read on!

So these are the main things I have in my back everyday

My bag is from Vans and it has a big pocket and has a smaller one in the front which is separated in pen holders, a zip and another section. (Sold out)

Then I also have my black notebook. I bought it for like 3$ in some street shop. It has graphic paper but I find it easier to write on it. It's really simple and I use it as planner and I just wrote a day on each page. I try to make it look nice and decorate it with what I have. I am really proud of the first page because I like how it turned out. I bought some t-shirts at primark and stickers with each design came with it so I popped them onto the first page. I bought a really flat mirror, and so I don't lose it I glued it on there as well. And then I of course have my little blog calendar, where I write each video I have have to upload and cross off each day.

Then I have a pencil case with just some stuff you need like pencil, marker, scissor and glue.

I bring my glasses but I almost never wear them. I only need them when we have to read entire pages and that is almost never the case. 

I also have my wallet which you've already seen in my what's in my bag post. (*≧ω≦)
