LIFE.

BLS (Basic Life Support) Class!

You have to be certified to work at the clinic but I actually found it to be extremely informative and would take it again in a heartbeat even if it wasn't mandatory. We learned how to perform CPR, Heimlich Maneuver & how to use an AED (Automated Extended Defibrillator) on adults, children and infants in 1 person rescuer or 2 person rescuer groups. Definitely a useful life skill!

If you're interested in becoming certified you can do it with your local Red Cross!

A veggie platter w/ my skinny egg salad & a scoop of crunchy peanut butter

Since I'm at the clinic with the Hubs now dinners have been a lot simpler as of late.

And for the Hubs - Dumpling Pizza!

It's so simply and filling.  I mean what's not to love pork + cheese. 

I had a similar version years and years ago at a fusion Japanese restaurant in Hawaii.  It's just pan fried dumplings + cheddar (fried until it's crunchy) + furikake on top!

Steak night!

With my drug dealer (lol!)

And my (eye) prescriber (uber important as I am blind as a bat)!!

Steak w/ Chive Butter, BBQ sauce & Spicy Chipotle Butter & Side Salad

Your steak comes out entirely raw on an extremely hot plate.  And you basically cut it yourself and "cook" it to your preferred wellness.  It was pretty fun & interactive!

The irony is that this steak is apparently from Omaha Nebraska lol!  Americans in Germany eating US steak. Oh the irony.  The Hubs went with the Argentinian steak and tried some of mine and said the Omaha steak was better. Who knew?!

Night cap.

Cooking for The Hub's potluck.

Peanut Butter Cup Fudge Brownies

Sushi Bake

Breakfast sausage, Scrambled eggs w/ Cheddar & Salsa, Toast w/ Peanut Butter & Honey and an Orange

Sunday brunch... because everything in Germany is closed on Sundays. And.I.Mean.EVERYTHING... you wake up Sunday morning and want to grab brunch, or a morning coffee or running to the store to grab some fresh bread. Not.Going.To.Happen.

So we do Sunday brunch at home now lol!

Coffee date :)

Made the Hubs crab cake sandwich while I ate salad

I was reading a post on Whowhatwear.com recently and it talked about "cultivating" an "everyday uniform".  Pieces that you can just throw together and be out the door decently put together in 5 mins flat!

And I realized the above is mine! 

Loose fitting blouse or tee, jean leggings, booties w/ a leather or in this case faux leather jacket!

Kalbi shortribs marinated for a full 24 hours!!!

The Hubs kept opening the fridge and asking if I could cook them straight away but waiting the full 24 hours made all the difference in the world!  So flavorful and juicy.

                                                               OM NOM NOM!!  

  Obviously the picture above was The Hubs dinner mine was eaten sans rice more broccoli and less meat :p

#WillNeverComplainAboutDriving15MinForFoodAgain

I really reallllly loved the Sk-II cream the more I used it.  Would absolutely most definitely repurchase this in the future!

Definitely more cost friendly then the La Mer I was using prior.  And truthfully because of how expensive the La Mer was I was trying to use AS little as possible when I used it.. which probably COMPLETELY negated any moisturizing effects of the actual product itself

-___-

Before my SK-II ran out I purchased these products from Nordstrom.com (they're super affordable too!) upon the recommendation of my blogger friend Phoebe from Eat. Live. Love. Repeat. She's GORGEOUS.. I'm literally obsessed w/ her eye makeup and her glowy skin!  So I'm trying these out now!

Totes excited over my new pink kitchen wear!! 

I don't really drink alcohol.. but I L-O-V-E alcohol desserts.  

Tiramisu, Bananas Foster, Champagne Truffles.. you name it I love it LOL!

And I especially love a good rum soaked bundt cake ie. Baba au Rum/Rum Baba especially during the holiday season (ok I'm SERIOUSLY months in advance but do you really need a reason for rum soaked cake? lololol.)
