That's why

So about valentine's day: I am not really sure how to feel about it. I think it is great if you show the people you love your affection. I do not feel so great about overpriced chocolate, flowers and restaurants...

I think real love does not need a special day so last week without any special occasion, I got this

and That's why I ♥ him

 

Oh by the way: I also got some very sweet flowers for valentine's day and I loved them. so really do not know how to feel about it... 

peaceful München

I was on my way to work yesterday morning. It snowed and it was just so quiet and peaceful. It felt like all the noise this city usually makes was absorbed by the fresh snowfall...

cupcake ♥

I am in ♥  with cupcakes. Here in Germany they are still something special. only certain pastry shops have them. so browsed the internet and found some recipes. Most of them were measured in cups/spoons... bummer... I converted them to the metric system but the cupcakes never turned out they way I wanted to. Especially the icing/frosting part... I was about to give up on cupcakes when on of my friends invited me to do a cupcake-workshop with her here in Munich! It was so much fun and the recipes are amazing. I am thrilled. I am officially a cupcake-holic. They are not the typical colourful american cupcakes but never mind...

life lately

There is a lot to catch up since I did not very well on blogging more often...

In December I had a ton of exams so studying was pretty much all I was doing...

Christmas has been busy. I guess for everyone... Back and forth between various Christmas dinners and family members. Good thing Markus family and mine live close together.

I usually have two weeks off during Christmas but this time it was all about giving skiing lessons. Normally I only do one course during winter... so far it's been three... But I met the cutest kids and had a lot of fun. 

But I think I have not slept in one single weekend since Christmas. Always getting up early is a little bit crazy. My inner clock is set on 6.30 am no matter what. 

I also went skiing just for fun with friends....

Next weekend there is no skiing for me and I honestly think I forgot what I usually did on weekends... but I am happy to have some time to catch up with friends and maybe relax a little bit... 

One more thing: I found this very cool app, where you can age yourself... so this is how I am going to look when I am 70 :-)
