January
2010 started pretty slow with a cold and watching the fireworks from our living room...
Also picturewise the year started slow...I didn't feel very inspired and picked up my camera only a few rare times...so there is not much to share...

February
In Febraury the hibernation was over and I kind of got my inspiration back. We installed some Ribba picture shelves in the kitchen to display my thrift store finds and kitschy knick-knacks...
We've been to one of my favorite cafés in Nürnberg, the Hans Sachs 10 (formerly known as Sachs & Söhne) at Hans-Sachs-Platz.

I discovered another lovely place to have coffee and a piece of cake - the Café Fernweh - at Willstraße 14 in Nürnberg Gostenhof. Such a cozy place that indeed makes you want to feel itchy for new destinations (Fernweh means wanderlust or travel bug in German) ...

At the end of Febraury we have been to Munich with our friends M and T for a little daytrip. We strolled thorught he city, had dinner at ocui (I have written about ocui on frauhaselmayer.com before...check it out here).

We've been to one of my favorite kitsch stores in Munich ever - the apartment shop at Barer Str. 49 in Munich's Maxvorstadt. More information on qype: APARTMENT shop around the world, Maxvorstadt, München. They carry the cutest stuff and all well-known brands, such as RICE, House Doctor, Riess,...just to name a few. Do you see the colorful pots from Riess below? Little did I know at this point that I get crazy about buying inexpensive second-rate quality Riess products later this year...

While the boys went to a Soccer game we continued our stoll through the city and ended up at the Stadt Café München for a hot chocolate to warm up from our stroll through wintery and snowy Munich.

March
..was kind of slow, too and, spend cuddling up on the couch with the cat and occasional trips to the airport to watch the planes and dream of far away places and to pay a visit to the international news stand...
...oh, and I did some trift store shopping where I found these AWESOME Mason jars and I made some delicious cakes, like this Eierlikörkuchen (eggnog chocolate chip cake)...
To be continued...
We will now have Raclette and a cozy New Year's Eve at home. Hope you have a great NYE wherever you are and happy new year! Here's to a fabulous 2011!
