For example, against the stress in the kitchen, or to make an evening (or say evening) dining with family somewhat bearable. But look before you
It sounds so innocent:you have the flu. In my opinion, the flu is also the only disease that is regularly referred to by the diminutive. As a kind of nickname.

From the moment you discover you are pregnant, you are on it. The health of your child. And for that you have to make a lot of sacrifices. No carpaccio, that just works, but nine months no wine † That is quite a task for some of us, but hey, you have to give something for it, dont you ladies. Maybe
We live in a country where learning, studying and hard work are central. If we dont know each other yet, we quickly ask the question:What do you do for work? When we talk about our children, we talk about what they can already do. If we have bought a new expensive car, we brag about it and you also

No, my dog did not die this morning. There are no relationship problems. And I wasnt fired either. Yet many a fellow villager will think that I am not completely stable mentally, so to speak. I regularly sit on the bike with watery eyes crying. And even when you see me walking, a tear often trickl
There is a lot to be said about the HPV vaccination. You hear the creepiest stories about girls I dont know what contracted after they got this vaccine against cervical cancer. Two weeks ago Anne also wrote about the HPV virus. What that virus is, and how it is diagnosed and treated. She also carrie
Husband shakes my shoulder wildly. Im terrified. shit. I didnt set the alarm. I quickly open the duvet. Little Man is already standing next to me. “Mommy, you really are a sleepyhead.” I mumble that he shouldnt talk to his father so much and walk over to the dark walk-in shower and check my phone. I
AH Vegetable Garden, in our opinion one of the few savings campaigns of supermarkets that you can call successful! Unfortunately, they are shrinking in 2018 with the vegetable gardens to be saved… Do you still take your children to the supermarket? As if there werent enough temptations on the shel

Now that our little girl has been here for a while, I can see her developing quickly. Its unbelievable how fast such a little thing can do that. Every day I see her struggling with everything she would love to, but cant yet. Sometimes she is even frustrated with what is not yet successful, she becom
There are (apparently) quite a few people who wonder What to do on Sunday?. Weve never had a problem with that! I think I think its the most wonderful day of the week, even if its the day before the week starts again 😉 . I think this is because Sunday is the time for us to really relax a bit. Im up
The word morning rush gives me the necessary jitters. And I dont mean fluttering jitters that feel as good as a crush! No, they are heavy mood-defining jitters in the sense of:“brrr… here we go again!” It is of course a subject that is discussed more often, Cherisz wrote once before that arriving at
Its Monday morning, 8.30am. I should have been out the door by now. But Im on the toilet. For the fifth time this morning. Aside from a lot of time, my irritable bowels also cost me miles of toilet paper. And my nights sleep. Since I discovered that Im lactose intolerant and let alone dairy products
My son has been looking forward to Christmas for weeks, if not months. “Especially because then you get presents under the tree,” I suggest. But it turns out Im wrong. “I always like it so much,” Sam says. “With the Christmas tree and all those lights. And having fun with the family.” While he says
Making sure your kids get enough vitamins:that often remains a struggle if it has to come from ordinary green vegetables.

I have been doing yoga for about five years now. Since then I have been feeling better in my own skin. I feel very good about it and now I cant live without it. I started it because I had a full-time job at the time where I had a lot of stress from time to time. I was looking for a way to really lea
