FRUIT POPS

this past weekend sure was hot! because this week is promised to be a warm week again, i decided to make some refreshing ice popsicles to fill the fridge. this is one simple and easy way to make your very own (sugar free) icecream with your favorite fruit.

SEMI DIY TASSEL

don't you just love a bright, fringy tassel? well i certainly do! i finally found a cute dutch webshop that sells them and ordered two streamers with 4 different colors. at first i was planning to make them myself [there are tons of diy videos online on how to make them] but i was never in the mood to spend that much time on making them and these tassels aren't even that expensive!

DECORATING FUN

easter is coming up. and like every year the internet is full of cool ideas on how to decorate easter eggs. here are a few of my favorites and the links on how to diy (do it yourself). some of them will take a little time and/or make a mess. but hey, you've got 16 days to try them out.

QUICK AND EASY

sundays often call for take-out or in this case a very simple and quick recipe to get something tasty on the dinner table. you can put anything you like into the quiche, leave out the meat for a nice vegetarian version or put in the leftovers from yesterday. nice to serve with some breadsticks and tomato soup. enjoy your sunday!

i base my quiche according to this recipe. 

and for my foreign readers a similar recipe over here.

CREAM PUFF FEST

this weekend i hosted a dinner party at our house for seven people. we have a group of friends that come together every now and then and we cook for each other. it's kinda like an 'american party' where everyone brings their own dish. this is an excellent way to try and experiment with new recipes and ideas. it's also very fun to try new dishes that the guests bring. this time i was in charge of dessert.
