A Saturday Meal | The Pasta



So for today, I decided to make a pasta for lunch. When I was younger I always ate my spaghettis with the typical 0815 meat and tomatoe sauce (stupid kid). But after years of eating more healthy I love to try out different pasta styles because there are soo many undiscovered ways to make your pasta a little bit more special.
For today, I planned to make some spelt noodles with a tomato sauce (just a normal sauce from Pomito, easily said some sauce made from sieved tomatoes) added with some extra halved tomatoes for the extra taste. I also added some Zucchini pieces and finished everything with some spices, like salt, pepper and oregano. And last but not least some pine nuts. And well that's it for the sauce (pretty simple and perfect for a day where you don't have time). For me, I liked to finish the result with some mozzarella and basil just to add some extra taste and make it look more impressive (#typicalbloggerhere).
You can everything vary like you want it to, since this is just the way I prefer to cook it. And don't forget: Always try out some new recipes and you will discover the variety of meals and ways to nourish yourself.





Let me know in the comments if you'd like me to do another Recipe post and I wish you all a great weekend,

Tuesday Favourites | Mix-up of the best from the last two months











Victorias Secret Body Lotion "Pure Seduction" | very hydrating and smells wonderful (like the most VS  sprays and lotions)

Catrice Beautifying Lip Smoother in " 030 Cake Pop" | got it from my best friend as a birthday gift, it's like a lipgloss-lipbalm mix in a wonderful nudy-pinky shade and a great and also cheap dupe for the Clarins Eclat Minute Lip Perfector (which I'm a huge fan of)

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in 005 Silky Beige | have shown this in my London Haul back in August 2014 (here) and have used it since then, absolutely love the finish which gives you a tiny glow and makes your skin looks healthy instead of cakey

WWAT Dvd from One Direction | must-have for a fan and what else to say?! it's One Direction and so it has to be good, have seen it with some friends when it was at the cinemas and it's like a memory to our concert in 2014 (emotional Karina here)

#Girlboss from Sophia Amoruso | this is such a good biography/inspirational book, it's basically about Sophia Amoruso who established the vintage shop Nasty Gal, which is very popular, in her book she talks about how her life changed with that and what she was like back in her twenties and gives young ladies (or ladies in general) advice how to be a #Girlboss and how to follow the dreams they have




Well, this was more like a let-the-photos-speak post, but I hope you liked it. As I haven't posted a lot in February (read everything in my Life Update post here) I decided to skip the "10 things I loved in the past two months post" and show you a mix of my latest faves. But I will continue with it after the month May.

What have been your recent favourites?
Let me know in the comments!


Have a nice day,
