keep it simple. be flexible. always.
I’m Christine living in the Rhineland (Germany). I’m a food lover & a cat lover – addicted to crime & mystery fiction as well as grand movies & binge watching TV series – above all I cannot survive w/o espresso … and I’m now Beyond my Kitchen.
Over the past decades I spent (too) many hours in my office workspace & had only limited time for food shopping & re-creation of delicious recipes. So I learnt to improvise, to simplify & to use everything currently available in my pantry for cooking & baking w/o sticking to recipes literally. In other words: I never got any job training in cookery.
This food blog will help you how to manage home cooking of delicious meals using a limited variety of ingredients & processing them quick & dirty. I fancy a basic cooking & baking approach with fresh ingredients (depending on season & availability!) as well as working w/ convenient products – simple & straightforward & foolproof.

My better half & I – we love travelling. So since having started my food blog every now & then you’ll stumble across a post about our travel adventures.
… and always true:

Photography
Usually I grab my iPhone which is reliable & easy to handle or my Olympus E-410 SLR with a 14-42 mm lens (Olympus EZ-1442) resp. a 50 mm lens (Olympus Zuiko Auto-S).
All pictures are taken in my kitchen at daylight: there is no home made foto studio with any artificial backgrounds, no floodlights, no spotlights, no reflectors.
… & for the sake of completeness: I cannot just open some kitchen cabinets filled w/ lots of selected chipped china or stacked wooden boards battered by time … or frayed linens … because there isn’t anything like that. I always capture reality.
In a nutshell:
All photos are taken by myself & therefore copyrighted. Please don’t use any of my photos w/o written permission!
