Life Of DJENDA
She’s not your average master chef. There’s no restaurant empire, no range of fancy cookware, no kitchen crew to run errands. Where she works there are rules in place. In comparison with celebrity cooks like Donna Hay, Jamie Oliver and Martha Stuard, Djenda clearly has other measures for success: since 15 years she caters for the culinary palate of three priests, missionary volunteers and...
The LOVER's Dictionary by David Levithan
Ever wished for some such thing as the ABC of love? - Well, it’s right here. Every letter of the alphabet tells the age-old story about boy meets girl. Each dictionary entry gives an insight into the ups and downs of every (wo)man’s romantic relationship, revealing a couple’s struggles with the daily grind - life, love, loss and all else.
Meet She and Him. She’s charming and a little...

Where BLUE begins
Some say that scenery can have an immense affect on your state of mind. In order to put that theory to the test and explore the dark spots of your soul, you should gather your courage and set course on Stanthorpe, QLD. Pick late autumn as the date and pay this tiny patch in the east of Australia a visit, even though it might not be the most sunny season of this region.
On the contrary, in the...

Every TIME by Jude Goodwin
Do you have stars in your mouth? she asks and I laugh, she’s never tasted winter like I have, midnights that linger for days. Yes, I tell her. Come see.[[MORE]]
Will there be breath? For a while, I whisper and blow on her hands, but you will sing and the aurora lights will walk across the ice.
She lets me put my hands on her. Will I die? her hair like snow. Yes. I tell her. Every time.

STILLNESS of the years
It’s this time of the year where you can feel the stillness of the years, the past is running out and the new is lingering just around the corner, impatiently waiting to begin.
Everything is quiet and things go about slower than usual. All corners of those days are filled with Inne halten. Contemplating life. Making plans. And there are these questions such as Do we lead the life we always wanted...
SNOWFLAKES or how things change
It’s cold outside and the first snowflakes are falling down, covering all and everything with a thick, white layer. Everywhere I see is white – windowsills and cars, and even the smallest branches of those big trees, all covered in glistering white, making reality turn into a winterwonderland.
When I was little watching the first snowflakes falling down was one of the most anticipated little...

Of SNAILS & BUTTERFLIES
The very first time I met death was in 1993. My grandfather had just died and in the aftermath of his death I also made the acquaintance of grief. That day my dad had received a call from the housekeeper, saying she had knocked at my grandpa’s door several times - but all in vain. There were no steps from within. The door remained shut. Only the dog kept throwing tantrums.

MUM's the word
What to say about my mum? - In all these years since my birth my mother has somehow become a mythical figure in my life. Mum’s a woman to be revered, but also one so complicated and complex, different and yet similar to me. And I’m afraid that I’ll never stop struggling to make sense of her and to accept myself within the context of her shadow.
At the age of 30 my mother was pregnant with her...
