Saturday is farmers’ market day – I love
going shopping there!
Uncomplicated, thrown on in a jiffy, and
very summery:
This maxi dress made of pure silk has
taken my heart by storm.
The fabric caresses your skin super
softly and moves beautifully with every breeze.
I don’t need to accessorize it with
anything but the bracelets with rose-gold details.
I only look
so empty-handed on the way to the market – on the way back I carry what feels
like 243 bags filled with tons of fruit and vegetables, and every time I am
convinced I will:
a) never
make it back to the car, because everything is so unbelievably heavy, and
b) not go
food shopping for a few days, because it will surely last for the whole week.
(The whole
week translates to: until Monday.)
If you don’t
want to just dump your fruit into the kitchen, but place it decoratively on the
table, the white dish with its irregular rim is a truly beautiful option!
On hot and
humid summer days like today I buy, among other things, a lot of organic limes
and use them to make a quick limeade – perfectly refreshing and only a little
bit sweet!
I prepare a
syrup and water it down a lot, adding slices of fresh lime to enhance the aroma.
Poured into
a simple white ceramic water jug the limeade looks great on the table.
If we don’t
use it as a drink container, I simply convert it:
It looks
perfect with even just one small flower or some blades of grass picked at the
wayside!
5 minute limeade
6 organic limes
a generous cup of
cane sugar
Juice the limes
and bring it to a quick boil together
with the sugar – just until the sugar has dissolved completely.
Add mineral water
to taste, serve over ice and with slices of lime.
