If you happen to travel to Prague in the summer, you are in for a lot of fun. Although this city turns into fairytale in the winter, in a dreamy painting in the autumn and in a romantic poem in the spring, summertime in the Golden City is not something you want to miss out on. Festivals and outdoor events everywhere – music, cold … Continue reading Summer in Prague- What to Pack
Bulgarian summer soup- tarator A bowl of freshness and health. I am quite convinced that there is no Bulgarian family that will go through the summer without putting on their table tarator- soup at least once! I like it for couple of reasons: It tastes good, it’s creamy, moderately spicy, and ever so fresh! It is easy and fast to prepare. Packed with nutrients. You … Continue reading Day 6
Our little girl, Julie, is recently going through transformation- she’s no more a little baby! As every parent of a kid at the age of two knows, there are days when you wish you could hide somewhere for 2-3 hours, or months… We’ve been through some really tough moments, especially in the past few months. Sometimes I need time for myself and can’t bring myself … Continue reading A colourful day
I will never forget the day I visited Prague for the first time. Sometimes one pair of eyes and one heart are just not enough, to deal with all the emotions and information that go through you. Prague is considerably bigger than the city I come from, but that wasn’t the most fascinating thing about it, there was something else, there was this feeling of … Continue reading To Live Prague
In our family Saturday is a shopping day. And on a hot Shopping Saturday we go crazy on the fruit buying. So, once we’ve put our little girl for a nap, I rolled up my sleeves, took a magazine and sat on the rocking chair with a glass of home-made lemonade. Fresh and simple, and you can never go wrong with it! I’ve used tap … Continue reading Day 5
Day 4 is all about sun, ice-cream, and tabbouleh. Tabbouleh is probably the most common meal on our table, I just love it. Love, love, love! I won’t be writing the recipe, as it is a very popular dish and there are more than enough tabbouleh recipes on the net. Still, if you need a recipe, I recommend this one , it’s very similar to … Continue reading Day 4
Today I went for a swim, a first for this year. Oh, Summer, I’ve been missing you badly! But since you’re already here, let me tell you the rules. First of all, no cooking! Not a week without a party! Every day there shall be dancing, sometimes there could be music as well! Wine- always cold, tea- always warm. Lemonade every day! Fruit every day! … Continue reading Day 3
Is that story about some guacamole? Well, yes, indeed! What can I say, I love my guacamole, I love it fresh, cold, and on a rye cracker. There is not much to say about it really, and there are surely tons of guacamole recipes (I really like this blog) on the net, but that is my jolly meal for today. Fresh, simple, delicious, packed with … Continue reading Day 2
What is it about the river that always makes you feel at ease? Is it the smell of wet bark? Or the splash of jumping fish? The ducks chasing each other, flapping their wings, furrowing the water like the most skilled surfers cleave through the waves in the ocean… Or is it the laughter of the children feeding the swans, running barefoot on the soft … Continue reading By the river
Some lunches are just not meant to be… complicated! If there was a keyword in my Day Zero post, that was “to prepare”. Who says that cooking is a must? Especially in the summer, when the last place I want to be is the kitchen. So, in honor of that, I present you- the fast lunch. Sandwiches with prosciutto, which can go easily without it, … Continue reading Day 1
Dear Life,
