Lust, die Nachbarn zu betören? Oder daran gedacht, das Haus oder die Wohnung zu verkaufen? Gar nicht so schwer: Backe einfach ein Blech Müsliriegel. Du denkst dir nun bestimmt, wie das gehen soll bzw. was der Verkauf einer Immobilie mit Müsliriegeln zu tun hat?! OK, so direkt haben diese Dinge nun wirklich nichts miteinander zu tun. Aber indirekt. Neulich habe ich nämlich gelesen, dass Kuchen-Backduft in einer angebotenen Immobilie zu einer schnelleren Kaufentscheidung der Interessenten beiträgt.

The best thing about being your own boss? You can watch the Oscars and don’t have to apply for a holiday the next day. How did I manage to get through one of the most exciting nights of the year?

The one thing I’ll miss for sure is the customary Austrian midnight waltz. Customs and rites are a big part of Christmas and New Year’s. I got curious and researched traditions from around the globe and also created six New Year’s Eve recipes for the current issue of WOMAN magazine. And you can get them all here!

At the moment I’m really into super- and powerfoods. I’m fascinated with food that gives my body energy and strength. Everything we eat influences our health and mood, so the powerfood list includes quite a few special ingredients.

Spring has sprung: it’s finally here and humans, animals and plants can feel it. Not long now and everything around us will be green and in bloom! These days, we’re all preferring to spend more time outside to enjoy the sun, warmth and fresh air. My popular cereal bars are a perfect fit for this time of year. This recipe was one of the first ones on my blog and is particularly relevant now: cereal bars are the ideal snack to eat during sport, work, school or kindergarten, and they’re quick and easy to make!
