Burnt Speculaas Cheesecake

Before getting into the Christmas spirit, here in the Netherlands, we will have Sinterklaas first. Although we cannot really celebrate it this year, again, because of the new measurements, I still want to do something nice, so I baked a burnt speculaas (variation: speculoos) cheesecake 😋.

Curiosity of the Day: Pillar of Light

When you see the Pillar of Light, it's a sure sign that your vibration is rising. But what exactly is a "vibration" and how do we keep our "vibes" high?

One Day Juice Cleanse

I’ve been feeling a bit bloated after ordering takeouts for 5 days straight 😖…I blame it on my busy schedules…So, I decided to do a juice cleanse and kick start my clean diet plan again.

Curiosity of the Day: Nine of Wands (Rev.)

Today's curiosity is dedicated to my dear friend Simon, who's asked for direction because he is feeling stuck. Let's see what the Tarot card says. According to Dali, this card is a symbol of searching, of awareness and of intuitive perception.
