I spent most of Monday night packing and haven't had the time to catch up since! I wanted to make it up with this quick & easy tip that is very loved at my home.

Healthy Nutella

I am one of those kids who grew up with Nutella. My dad is the biggest Nutella fan I know and he passed his love onto me. As a child, it was the only thing I would ever eat on my bread. Every single day, I had bread with Nutella for lunch. And man, is it good! There is only one thing. One of the main ingredients in Nutella is sugar. Sugar that does nothing good for your body. So I started moderating my use of Nutella.

Apple & Speculoos Pie

In my opinion, there is nothing better than apple pie. Nope. Don't even try it. You won't convince me. I do make some exceptions though. When you add something to that amazing apple pie for example. Behold: Apple & Speculoos Pie.

Memory Pancakes

As you can tell from the title, these pancakes always bring up different memories for me. It are all happy memories, but one of them is just a little more special to me... The pancakes itself are cinnamon pancakes, which are of course perfect for me. If you thought regular pancakes couldn't get better, just make these!

Homemade Hand & Foot Scrub

Now it is getting colder, my skin gets affected by the weather. I have awful feet all-year round and I really need to take good care of them to make sure they are somewhat okay. I have a lot of callouses that were built up over the years, due to a lot of different things: running, dancing, ... That doesn't mean that I don't mind them being there and that I don't want them to disappear.

Kruidnoten / Spice Nuts

In Belgium and The Netherlands, today is a very special day, or at least for children. It is the day that Sinterklaas comes! I think it is safe to compare Sinterklaas to what Santa Claus is in the United States. The night of 5 december, children put their shoe in front of the fire place before going to bed with a letter and carrots and sugar for the horse of Sinterklaas, hoping that he will bring them something in the night...

HEALTHY | Pumpkin Pie

Now Thanksgiving is coming up in the US, I see pumpkin pie recipes everywhere. In Belgium, pies like these are not very known. Carrot cake is slowly being introduced, but pumpkin pie is nowhere to be seen. So I thought; why not make one of my own!

Grandma's Pear Tart

About two weeks ago, I went to visit my grandparents. Once a year, the entire family comes together because of the annual fair and I love seeing them all back! My grandmother always makes dinner for everyone and that was no exception this year.

HEALTHY | Banana Bread

When we went to London this summer, I did something I should have never done. I saw some banana bread on the breakfast buffet and since I was curious, I decided to try some. Bad decision. I ended up eating about 3 slices each morning we were there. And the only reason I stopped, is because I was so full I really couldn't eat a fourth slice.

Almond Biscotti

From time to time, I just need to bake. It usually happens once in 1 - 2 weeks and no matter what I have to do then, I just feel like baking! Yesterday was such a day. Sadly enough, it was a very busy and hectic day and I didn't have time to bake something. But luckily today there was another (quiet) day! Since it hadn't stopped raining this last week, I really wanted to make something perfect for fall. I had looked up the recipe and was completely ready for it!

Caprese Bread

Ever since I can remember, I have loved anything Caprese-like. I have always been a pizza lover and the only 2 pizzas I ever ate when I was a kid were Caprese or Margharita. Same goes for the Caprese Salad. There is nothing else that I can eat as often in the summer time. Or a caprese baguette! Hmm, it can really make my day.

Starbucks Lemon Cake

Each time I go to Starbucks, I go crazy while standing in line. The pastries in there all look so delicious! I never really end up ordering something, except for their granola bar once. Some time ago, I was browsing through one of my favourite cooking blogs, Uit Pauline's Keuken, when I bumped into her Starbucks lemon cake recipe. It looked so delicious I just had to make it! And with my knowledge of the amazingness of Starbucks pastries (or at least, the amazingness of how they look), I knew it had to be amazing.

Frozen Yogurt

About two years ago, I first got to know frozen yogurt. A healthier version of ice cream, topped with all kind of delicious toppings? Gimme! Sadly enough, I had to wait to try one until last autumn. I was on vacation in Holland - in Maastricht - and of course, I had been searching already whether they had a place that sold frozen yogurt. And they did! I was looking forward to trying it out the entire week and Oh my.. When I tried it I was sold immediately!

Rhubarb Jam

If you have read my rhubarb crumble recipe, you know I bought a huge amount of fresh rhubarb. I froze a whole lot of it, since making a ton of rhubarb recipes in one week wouldn't have been yummy. The only problem with freezing 2 kilograms: we have a small freezer. So when my dad made spaghetti sauce some weeks ago, we had a problem. He always makes enough for about a month (we eat spaghetti each friday) and freezes it. Now, the freezer was already filled with rhubarb. That's why my mom asked me to please make something with the leftover rhubarb.
