In my humble opinion, anything which ...

3 Last-Minute Homemade Christmas Presents
It's this time of year again - Christmas is at our doorstep. Throughout the last weeks most of us have been running around from one Christmas party to the other.

It's finally Winter! One of the great things about winter, apart from snow, drinking tea and eating cookies, is those awesome Winter fruits like pomegranate. Pomegranate is such a lovely addition to salads, grains or desserts. It's not too sweet and not too sour. Just perfectly balanced, which makes it extremely versatile. Not to forget it's beautiful lush color! Those red jewels make everything so festive and special. For this recipe I've tried to enhance pomegranate's natural beauty. I've ...
