Wearing a sunday dress – Breakfast carrot cake with coconut

March 13, 2016 by nadel&gabel

It was one of my New Years resolutions: Eat better at work! I was so sick of the every day returning bun sandwich with sausage or cheese I had for breakfast at work, the bun sandwich with sausage or cheese for lunch as well… And I was even more annoyed about myself not getting moved my ass to change this situation. So, to help me kick-start my project and keep with it I had to make it cool and stylish – […]

My work space IV: Storage and decoration

March 28, 2014 by nadel&gabel

May I invite you to another closer look around my redesigned working place? This time you will mainly see where I store all my stuff – perhaps we shouldn’t exaggerate and speak of “organization”… When I decided to swop my old massive wooden desk – from teenage times – for a new one I had the vision  of a lighter look around the place I am sitting about half of the day. I decided for a simple wooden desktop with […]
