What I did, while I stayed at home with the flu....

Meine Reise nach London letzte Woche musste ich absagen, da ich mit einer Erkältung im Bett lag. Da ich mich recht schnell langweile, habe ich etwas gestrickt. Ein Schal und ein paar Handwärmer sind fertig geworden. Es war mein erstes Mal mit Nadelspiel und Zopfmuster, deswegen bin ich schon ein wenig stolz, dass mir die Handwärmer halbwegs gelungen sind. :-)



My Trip to London last week was canceled because of the flu. So I stayed in bed at home. I am bored really quick so I have knitted a bit. A scarf and a pair of mittens are ready. It was my first time I used double pointed needles and a cablepattern, so I am a bit proud I got the mittens right. :-)





Hier ist der Schal, gestrickt mit Lana Grosaa Morbido in 204/ Here is the Scarf, I used the yarn Lana Grossa Morbido in 204
















Und hier kommen die Fetching Handwärmer, gestrickt Mit Schachenmayer Merino Big in dunkelblau/ Here are the Fetching Mittens, I used the yarn Schachenmayer Merino Big in dark blue

I made a Cream.....

Ich habe mal wieder eine Creme gerührt.


Das dauert bei mir immer einige Zeit bis ich mich dazu aufraffen kann. Ich weiss nicht woran das liegt. Bisher habe ich auch noch nicht die optimale Creme für mich gefunden. Naja, was nicht ist kann ja noch werden...:-)




I did it again. I just made a cream.


I do not know why, but it always takes some time for me to get started in making cream. I have not found the best recipe for my skin yet. So I have to try some more recipes...and perhaps I at last will found what I am searching for....;-)


Heute habe ich dieses Rezept gerührt/ Today I tried this recipe:


Mandel Feuchtigkeitscreme (der Creme von Weleda nachempfunden)/ Almond moisturizing cream




50g Creme (cream)

20 Fett (oil) : 80 Wasser (water)


Wasserphase (phase of water):

37,5g Wasser (Ich habe Cassis Hydrolat genommen)/ water (I used cassis hydrolate)

2,5g Glycerin



Fettphase (phase of oils):


2g Glycerinstearat SE
0,5g Bienenwachs (Beeswax)
6g Mandelöl (almond oil)
2g Pflaumenkernöl (prune core oil)
Msp. Xanthan (habe ich weggelassen/ I did not use it)



1-2 Tropfen Milchsäure (1-2 drops lactic acid)

Konservierer A- Kons (preservation)
