Pretty much everyone who shares their life with a doll and consider her or him their significant other fears one thing in particular: having to replace the doll’s head. Changing the body is one thing. In the end, that’s merely a physical thing. But when it comes to the head, things get tricky. After all, … Continue reading Science with Sissy: Personality Transference 🎓 →

Cola isn’t healthy – it is one giant sugar bomb. My lovely husband and I are fully aware of that. Still, we do like a little drop of cola every now and then. Only as a treat, of course, we mainly drink sparkling mineral water. Why am I telling you this? Well, Harry likes to … Continue reading Cola Roast →

I don’t need to introduce Bud Spencer to my German friends because he was (and has continued to be) huge in Germany. For everyone else: Bud Spencer (born Carlo Pedersoli) was an Italian Olympic swimmer turned actor. In the latter role, he was one of my husband’s greatest childhood heroes as one half of the … Continue reading Bud Spencer’s Bacon & Beans →

Way back in the last millennium, “home economics” was a compulsory subject at the secondary school my husband and my sister-in-law attended. Naturally, this was for girls only; the boys had to take “handicraft”. Ah, the good old days when gender roles were still clearly defined… *sigh* 🙄 “Home economics” included cooking lessons. And one … Continue reading Ham & Rice →

After making Ped Pad Prik Gaeng the other day, we had some Asian vegetables and curry paste left over. And as we fancied a pasta bake, we improvised a bit. As we had run out of coconut milk, we used ordinary cow’s milk instead. We found out that, this way, it needed a little more … Continue reading Casserole “Pad Prik Gaeng” 🥦🔥 →

My lovely husband once told me about his first visit to a Thai restaurant and how he was initially a little overwhelmed by the menu. Harry ended up ordering “Ped Pad Prik Gaeng” – mostly because he thought it sounded funny. 😄 But he also knew that he liked baked duck and coconut flavour. And … Continue reading Ped Pad Prik Gaeng 🔥 →

If you’ve been following me closely, you know that – probably thanks to my husband – I have a soft spot for maritime things. ⛵ Harry has taken me on holiday to the North Sea quite a few times. Sadly, though, we haven’t travelled this year due to a variety of reasons. 😔 But I … Continue reading My Sailor Dress →

Remember my recipe for “Tuscany Chicken Wraps” which, under “what we need”, mentioned a sachet of a “fix product” for Meatballs Toscana? It said that, if you did’t want to use a “fix product”, you’d surely find a recipe for a Tuscan sauce on the internet. Well, this is the internet – so, here we … Continue reading Tuscany Meatballs →

In part 3 of my journey to find my new hairstyle, I’m trying a “Brown Bob Wig with Bangs for Women Short Shoulder Length”. But before reviewing it, let’s get back to the first two wigs that I tried. I thought that the “Auburn Red Mix Mid Length Feathered Wig” I tried first looked very … Continue reading Finding My New Hairstyle – part 3 →

When I showcased my “Slaydiva Sexy Floral Print Lace Trim Neckline Mermaid Bodycon Cami Long Dress” the other day, I mentioned that it reminded me a lot of “Carmen”. Just like the leading lady of that opera, I too am – if I may say so about myself – a passionate, seductive, breathtakingly beautiful woman … Continue reading In Bed with Carmen →

Today I’m sharing with you my favourite dessert: spaghetti ice cream. 😋 Italy is famous for their delicious pasta and ice cream. So what would be more fitting than an ice cream dish that looks just like spaghetti with tomato sauce and Parmesan? Interestingly, although its inventor is apparently of Italian origin, “Spaghettieis” was invented … Continue reading Spaghettieis 🍨 →

Yes, I know, sometimes I pick weird titles for my posts. But when I saw this dress in red and black, I couldn’t help but think of Georges Bizet’s famous opera “Carmen”. Maybe because these were the dominating colours of Katarina Witt’s costume when “Carmen” was the subject of her figure-skating free program that won … Continue reading Carmen on Wheels →
