It doesn’t matter how much I’m in a hurry in the morning: I won’t forget my stinging wonder plant! I drink a cup of nettle tea at breakfast every day. And that is not only because I like the taste of it. Apart from giving a nasty sting, nettle is one of the wonder plants nature has blessed us with.
I am a huge fan of buckwheat flour. It is very healthy because it has high nutritional value and is high in fibers. It is also gluten-free, so it’s suitable for people with gluten intolerance. Buckwheat has a distinct nut-like taste, different from other kinds of flour. The taste is probably due to the fact that it is an herb (the plant ‘Fagopyrum exculentum’), instead of a grass species.
The first thing I do when I come home from work, or well, after I have thrown my bag on the floor and kicked out my high heels, is pressing the play-button of the CD-player. For me, rocking some mellow tunes is the way to chill out after a long day.

“All that ‘it girl’ sh*t makes me kind of uncomfortable. I’m only at the beginning of my career, but I feel successful in that I haven’t sold out in any way, shape or form. I feel good about the choices I’ve made, and I don’t feel like I’ve let go of any of my values. Fame has become this obsession for people, which kind of creeps me out.”
