Talking about my 5 songs from this morning!!!! A true mix of music! But Billy Currington….BILLY CURRINGTON! Really! A HELL YEAH… came out flying out of my mouth! I was jumping, singing, (more like screaming…for 3 minutes and 55 seconds, I was a happy country girl!). I could see thru my car rearview mirror that […]
I really don’t have much to say today except that…
I started sketching again this week…that is, fashion sketching… Here is 1 page of the many pages I did this morning… I ate McDonald’s today….yep! I ate McDonalds…in Switzerland. Actually, I have one 2 minutes from where I live and I thank my lucky stars I do! I’m also working on another article, but I’m […]
Voilà…
Chocolate Cake I’m not ashamed to say it. Actually, I’m very proud to say that I’m a “Betty Crocker” and “Duncan Hines” fan! A total addict! I love their butter cakes, their chocolate cakes, their cookie mixes, their many recipes you can find on their packages…ooh ooh, I love their frostings!!!! I love them! All […]
A weekend full of “Gaukler”
At The Lenzburger Gauklerfestival FUN! Since 1993, The Lenzburger Gauklerfestival takes place around mid-August, right in the Alt Stadt in Lenzburg, Switzerland. Traveling artists from all over the World come and show their artistic talents and tricks to the Public. Some would perform a skit, some would create a comedy act, others would present a […]
Safe and Sound
It happened yesterday… I had some relatives that came to visit me in Switzerland. They live in the Netherlands so, truly it was a special visit. And so I decided to take them to Lenzburg which is the next town next to where I live, plus it has a cool “Schloss” (Castle) that I thought […]
ASCONA…I miss you already!
I must confess… When I booked my trip to Locarno I wasn’t really into visiting ASCONA. I was more like…”if I can’t find a hotel in Locarno, I’ll stay in Ascona and drive daily to Locarno”…way of thinking. Well guess what? I stayed in Locarno and drove everyday to ASCONA for the beach, sightseeing and […]
Locarno…I heart u!
IN LAGGO MAGGIORE…. Just came back from visiting the southern region of Switzerland, TICINO! Everyone was right! It is beautiful. Even our drive had awesome views. Check it out! We first stopped here on our way to Locarno! Gorgeous views! It was such a sweet ride all the way to Locarno…until you have to return […]
Just a short note….
I’m on my way to Locarno to have a basking and summery time, right?…if only this major Thunderstorm would pass by quicker so that I can get on the road. But as soon as it gets better, I’ll head out. So be on the look out for the next couples of days for I will […]
Zürich
The largest city in Switzerland…Zürich! I LOVE ZÜRICH 🙂 I’ve been to Zürich more than a few times. In fact, I’ve been to Zürich many many times, even if it was just for the train ride to get to the Central Station where I can shop their Underground Mall. It has everything you need! […]
Mascarpone Cheesecake with Berries
Mascarpone Cheesecake I’m not a big fan of cheesecake (really?). My sister makes a really thick, creamy Strawberry Cheesecake. I like that one she makes, but overall, cheesecake is just not my favorite dessert, (yeah, aha). However, since I hate wasting food, (and I bought the wrong cream cheese….mascarpone to be exact….what a shame!!!), […]
Call me sentimental…but I can’t help it
ESPRIT was one of those brands that my mother used to shop for us back in Puerto Rico. Few people know…it’s was truly an American Brand, born in 1968 in California, USA. Here in Switzerland, people believe is European, to no surprise…it fits the market perfectly. I used to think it was French for the […]
