next to kickboxing and cardio it is very important [ for me ] to flex and relax my muscles and find a strong balance between body and mind. you feel tall, strong, free and many more positive feelings will get the upper hand.

life is flexibility and stiffness is death.

passion for passion

PH by XAVIERA

nothing complicated, passion fruits mixed with some ice cream. tasted like solereos.

not a drink for an autumn day in spring like we have right now. so it will be lots of tea today and a hot shower. and no obligations. making sure i am completely relaxed to celebrate queens day on monday.

savory sweet salad

PH by XAVIERA


i don't like salads for dinner i want my dinner served warm. but for lunch a salad is working for me. i prefer a savory salad instead of sweet. or even better a combination of savory and sweet. like the one i made.

the brie combined with the honey, balsamic vinegar and olive oil [ extra virgin ] is so good. and the bite of the pecans can't be missed in this salad.

no awful waffle





 

PH & EDIT by XAVIERA

sometimes i prefer vintage clothes and the same goes for my kitchen supplies. not always, but sometimes. this has so much more character than a modern waffle iron.
i was looking for a retro waffle iron for a while now and found this oldie at this dutch website vandittumendattum. she was shipped to me in her original packaging [ 1950 ] and still hot as hell [ when plugged in ].

I DID
chop the potatoes in slices and covered them with the oil, rosemary and sea salt.

remove them from oven and add prosciutto and mozzarella.
put them back in the oven for another 15 minutes.

fruit nut bread

PH by XAVIERA

these little breads actually need no spread. the sweetness of the fruit combined with the nuts is a real good combo.
but i had to make one with cheese spread and of course fresh chive.

easter 12

PH & EDIT by XAVIERA

i am not religious. and it is not a must for me to 'celebrate' easter. i just like the joyful colors and joyful food and joyful get together[s]. oh, and because spring is always on its way.
so, no plans, no obligations. but a long weekend full of joyful snacks and friends.
