I love these kind of easy, simple and healthier desserts but I guess you already know that if you’ve been visiting my blog in recent years. All the recipes here on the blog are simple and easy to make.

And just like that, Summer is slowly coming to an end… I thought to end this month of August with incredibly easy to make and super tasty sweet treat, Roasted plums and yogurt dessert! But first I would love to hear from you! How was your Summer, have you had an opportunity to rest and relax, get away from all the stress we all have been through in the last 6 months?
I spent about a month in my hometown Dubrovnik with my family, trying to switch off as much as possible and de-stress focusing on present moment and little everyday things. I did some shoots for a client but mostly I spent my days reading, enjoying long evening walks, going to the beach with my sister, niece and nephew… Sometimes my mum would join us too so that was really nice! Specially because she had a hip replacement surgery just before this pandemic hit us so it was so lovely to see her walking again and being pain-free.
Spending time with my loved ones and not thinking about what tomorrow will look like, that was just what I needed after the stressful period of lock down, earthquake in Zagreb, having jobs cancelled due to pandemic etc… But I don’t want to ‘talk’ about that now, let’s focus on the positive and all that we can do to help us go through these challenging times the best we can.

Today I’m taking you to Croatian region of Zagorje, beautiful green part of Croatia with its picturesque scenery, pretty little villages, magnificent castles and rich cultural heritage. I hope I get to make a blog post one day about this beautiful region situated nearby Zagreb. However, today’s post will be about Golubovec castle. It sadly hasn’t been renovated to its previous glory and there is only one part of it which is functional. The rest of the castle is in very bad condition and requires full renovation as you will see in the photos.

Anybody in the mood for Sour cherries strudel with yogurt and semolina filling? I know I am, always! 🙂 But I can’t just start writing the recipe without mentioning these last few months. So much has changed in these three months since the last time I posted anything new on the blog.
Basically, the world has changed and now everybody’s talking about the new normal. My last post was in February when we still didn’t fully realise what is waiting for all of us in the weeks to come. I spent that month in Dubrovnik for some family reasons and for few photoshoots I had booked and had all nicely planned out for how my life is going to look like from March on as I had jobs booked, trips planned, exciting travels confirmed. It just goes to show that sometimes life simply cannot be planned out…
