Speaking Spiekeroog…

My Travels

A fortnight ago, Harry and I went on yet another holiday trip to East Frisia which would lead us to the island of Spiekeroog and Dornumersiel on the mainland.

We started out with our fourth trip together to Spiekeroog which, unfortunately, might also turn our last. There are two reasons making it unlikely that I will see the world’s most beautiful island again anytime soon:

The first reason is my hubby not getting any younger and his back isn’t getting any better. It is becoming increasingly difficult for him to push me around in my wheelchair on this rather hilly island.

My Lifestyle

It’s official: I am a demanded top model! 😎

Well, you be the judge as to whether “top” might actually be over the top (even though my husband says no) and “demanded” won’t hold true because I wasn’t really asked. 😉

Anyway, it is a fact that I am featured prominently in “Le Rubriche delle Dolls”! 🙂

As a kitchen maid presenting Mamis Gulasch rather than a fashion model but it still counts! 😄

You’re probably wondering what’s the deal. Well, a few months back, my good friend Ludovica from Italy texted me about a book-making class working on a project for their final exam.

Cherry picking

My Fashion

One might argue that, since undergoing breast reduction, I can no longer refer to my twins as melons. Fair enough! But cherries? 🤨

Then again, who wouldn’t enjoy sweet cherries on their cup cakes? 🍒

Plus, my lovely husband is quite a cherry picker when it comes to new clothing that he feels I might look sexy in.

And so, when he saw this “Elegant Fashion Bodycon Dress with Cherry Print” on the internet, he just couldn’t resist. Trusting he wouldn’t be able to resist me, either, I put it on right upon delivery.

Sexy in pink

My Sexy Side

If you follow me on social media, you knew that I was going to show you my favourite nightwear here at my “place”. And here it is:

It’s a “Heart & Letter Graphic Contrast Binding Ruffle Hem Cami Pajama Nightdress Holidayseason” (sic!) from SHEIN.

I have combined it with a kimono that didn’t originally come with the nightdress. But from the colour and the subtle sleeve embroidery, they are perfect match. 😍

It’s a highly comfy attire. It’s easy to put on, easy to take off – no head removal required.

Bitchy Pasta Salad

My Kitchen

You’ve been invited to a barbecue and wish to contribute with a savoury salad? Then a “Bitchy Pasta Salad” is what you want!

I know what you’re thinking and you’re right. How can a pasta salad be bitchy?

Well, a dish needs a name. And if a specific person is responsible for the recipe, they should be credited for it. Honour to whom honour is due.

Harry used to refer to his cheating, gaslighting ex-wife as “bitchy ex” and he says that, in the long run, the only things she proved good for was f**king and pasta salad.
