Villeroy & Boch Perlemor – Like a vacation by the sea

Villeroy & Boch Perlemor

A WEEKEND LIKE A HOLIDAY AT THE SEA – It’s Friday evening. A sun-drenched weekend awaits me. When I close my eyes, I remember back to the fantastic days by the sea. I feel the soft sand under my feet. The fresh sea water ripples around my legs. The light summer dress blows in the salty breeze. Pure happiness flows through my body. I was especially impressed by the evening walks on the beach. People were bubbling with lightness. There was laughter and dancing. The love of pleasure, the love of being, was celebrated. The candlelight from the restaurants wrapped the whole ambience in an incredibly soothing atmosphere. It was pure inspiration.

This weekend, I’m whisking my girlfriends away from their everyday lives. Not only culinary, especially the ambience should spoil them. With the trendy Pottery collection Perlemor I take my loved ones on a journey to the magical beach. I stroll through the market and buy fresh fruits, vegetables and fragrant herbs. The wine is chilled. The scent of fresh bread wafts from my kitchen into the garden. The lanterns are wildly scattered on the table. Cool, fresh watermelon pieces lie in the sand-colored bowls. The crisp lettuce looks especially beautiful in the coral-colored bowls. Music plays from my boombox, the candles glow. My girls fall into my arms, beaming with joy. We are at home, enjoying the moment. We feel as if we are sitting on a wide sandy beach, surrounded by the lightness of the many people celebrating their vacations, doing nothing and the magical moment of the moment. Inspired by my vacations by the sea, I created the ambience, the feel-good atmosphere that makes my girlfriends forget about everyday life. Thank you enchanting Perlemor!

Perlemor – Tableware by Villeroy & Boch – THE DESIGN & FUNCTION

The lightness and light-heartedness of the trendy design of the new season reflects the love of the beach. The tableware is available in two colors. The delicate Coral is in unique harmony with the sand-colored collection. Wonderfully fitting is the symbolism behind the color Coral. It stands for new energy, joy and vitality and strengthens the need for friendship. The color combination in Perlemor Sand with the bluish stripe suggests the horizon from the blue sea along the endless beach. The flowing effect glaze makes each piece a unique work of art. The shades of color make each plate, cup and bowl a must have. The noble finish guarantees a relaxed wash in the dishwasher. Also the quick heating in the microwave is possible with the Perlemor – tableware.

Brunch ganz ohne Arbeit? Geht echt leicht!

Earlytaste, Frühstück, Köln

Ich habe vor einer Woche meine Freunde zum Brunch eingeladen und war einfach zu faul, um das Essen selbst zuzubereiten. Gott sei Dank habe ich den Frühstückslieferdienst EarlyTaste entdeckt. EarlyTaste bietet viele verschiedene Produkte an, aus denen mal eine oder mehrere Portionen auswählen kann. Ich habe mich für “Der Klassiker”, “Das Katerfrühstück”,”Fit in den Tag” und “Das Wikingerfrühstück” entschieden. Außerdem habe ich noch den “Smoothie Bowl” und einen “kleinen Früchtebecher” bestellt. Für alles zusammen habe ich ungefähr 60 Euro bezahlt.

A week ago, I had a brunch at my house because I was just too lazy to prepare it by myself. Thank goodness I discovered the breakfast delivery service EarlyTasteEarlyTaste offers many different products with a selection between one or several servings. I chose “The classic”, “The hangover breakfast”, “Fit in the day” and “The Viking breakfast”. Also, I ordered the “Smoothie Bowl” and a “small fruit cup”. I paid about 60€ in total. Sounds a lot but honestly, totally worth it!

Das Frühstück ist da! – The breakfast arrived

Als dann alles angekommen war, ist mir zuerst aufgefallen, dass die Lebensmittel von EarlyTaste in 100% biologisch abbaubar Verpackungen transportiert worden sind. Auf seiner Internetseite wirbt das Unternehmen dafür, komplett recycelte Rohstoffe zur Verpackung zu verwenden, was ich durchaus bestätigen kann.
Das Frühstück bestand aus verschiedenen Backwaren wie Croissants und Körnerbrötchen, Aufstrichen wie Nuss Nougat Creme und Marmelade, Obst, Aufschnitt wie Wurst, Käse und Lachs, gekochten Eiern, Rührei, Bacon, Gemüse, einem Superfoods-Schichtjoghurt, dem Smoothie Bowl mit Superfood-Toppings, Honig, und vielem mehr. Bei solchen Massen lohnt sich der auf den ersten Blick recht hoch erscheinende Preis auf jeden Fall. Aber werden alle satt und am wichtigsten: schmeckt es auch?

When everything arrived, I noticed first that the food from EarlyTaste has been transported in 100% biodegradable packaging. On its website, the company promotes the use of completely recycled raw materials for packaging, which I definitely confirm.

The breakfast consisted of various pastries like croissants, grains, spreads like nut nougat cream and jam, fruits, cold cuts like sausage, cheese and salmon, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, bacon, vegetables, a superfood layer yoghurt, the smoothie bowl with superfood toppings, honey, and much more. For such masses, the price, which at first glance seems quite high, is definitely worth it. But will all be satisfied and most importantly: does it taste good?

Der Geschmackstest – Taste test

Gefrühstückt haben wir dann mit zwei hungrigen Frauen und zwei hungrigen Männern. Jeder hat einmal von allem probiert und alle sind mehr als satt geworden. Es sind sogar die Zusatzbestellungen, also der zusätzliche Smoothie Bowl und der kleine Fruchtbecher, übrig geblieben. Und zusätzlich hat auch alles wirklich sehr gut geschmeckt!

Earlytaste, Frühstück, Köln

There were four people (2 women and 2 men) and we were all very hungry. Everyone tasted everything and we were all more than satisfied. The Smoothie Bowl and the small fruit beaker were leftover. In addition, everything really tasted very good!

Mein Fazit – My conclusion

Das EarlyTaste Frühstück lohnt sich nicht nur für Faule, sondern auch für Reisende, die zum Beispiel in einer AirBnb-Behausung wohnen und kein Frühstück vor Ort haben. EarlyTaste liefert schnell und zusätzlich gibt es noch Pluspunkte für die umweltfreundliche Verpackung. Wenn ihr jetzt auch Lust bekommen habt, euch von EarlyTaste verwöhnen zu lassen, kann ich euch noch mit dem Rabattcode “earlytaste-2016” drei Euro Rabatt auf eure Bestellung anbieten!
