I’ve been in spring break mode lately. You might have noticed since I didn’t bake last weekend. I think it’s because I recently went on a vacation which I haven’t done in a couple of years and it felt awesome to just relax and do nothing. And now being back home I can’t stop enjoying the warmth that’s finally taking over. Spring is probably my favorite time of the year. Unfortunately, in the south, you only have about seven minutes to enjoy the season before the hot and humid heat of summer takes over. Okay, okay – I’m exaggerating a little. It probably lasts eleven minutes. ; ) So you’ve got to enjoy all of them while they last. And I’m trying.
Got Spring Fever, too? Take a break with me and enter this sweet Spring Bake Giveaway for a chance to win a KitchenAid Stand Mixer… in one of the following pastel colors. Plus a white and silver choice in case springy isn’t your speed. Me? I have the pink one, but man, that aqua sky is calling my name. And the ice and crystal blue. too. I’m glad I don’t have to choose.

My favorite vacation spot is Hawaii. But after this New York winter anywhere with sunshine and warm weather and the ability to sit by the ocean would do right now. I really like the pink.
The world is full of beautiful places….

I love PINK!
I really love Italy – especially Florence!
And: the Crystal Blue one. :)

Difficult question. I love traveling in foreign countries but I am also happy to see the beautiful places in my homecountry and also my hometown (Berlin/Germany). Nature is what thrills me most.
With the kitchen aid it’s also a difficult decision, they all look gorgeous. But since I have to make a decision, I would pick the ICE.
Sincerely
Leni
