Keep Calm and Travel On

Hi Cupcakes !!!
I packed my bag, brought my camera and already left the town:)
A busy travel mode has been started for me.
I will be on the road (let`s say on the plane) until the end of August.
Now, I am on a business trip out of the country.
But Thank God that rest of the travels are for pleasure:)
This is gonna be a longgggg and well deserved summer vacation !!!
In the meantime, I might not be able to post often on my blog.
But you all know where to find me, right???
I am always up on Twitter (CupcakeHayatlar) and Instagram (cupcakehayatlar) .

Stay as sweet as Cupcakes till I come back :)

The Inspiration T(H)REE

Each Wednesday -on the 3rd day of week- I share 3 inspirational photos. 

Those might be the photos of food, fashion, people, art or any view from my window... 

My aim is to create an inspiration tree for the week.

Let those photos inspire us to make
- our lives more colorful,
- our week more stress-free,
- our selves more productive, happy and full of love. 

This week, the inspiration comes from our summer vacation in Montenegro last June. 
What happens to your photos taken in the summer when the vacation ends?
Do you look them later and recall your travel memories?  I do:) 
I use them as an inspiration for the future vacations. And here they are !!!

Let`s see the world as a big CUPCAKE;) 

1) Sveti Stefan Island

The island once was a fortified village dating back to the 15th century, now only houses a luxury resort: Aman Sveti Stefan  

2) Cupcake houses on the coast of Budva

Love the Mediterranean architecture

Old stone houses with red roofs and green shutters 

3) An outdoor cafe in Kotor

Nice place for an evening drink and people-watch :)

Have a Cupcake inspired Wednesday !!!
 

Celebrating Blue Monday * Pazartesi Sendromu Tedavisi

Whenever I forget to drink water on Mondays, I feel Monday Syndrome more than ever.
Does that happen to you as well?
In the midst of summer, I suggest you to drink more water and get hydrated to overcome Monday Blues.
If you cannot drink water a lot, try to add some flavors such as lemon, lime or mint leaves into your glass !
Now, I am off to peel a lemon ;)
Have a Cupcake sweet Monday !!!

                            *            *            *

Ne zaman su icmeyi unutsam, Pazartesi Sendromunu daha fazla hissediyorum.
Size de aynisi oluyor mu?
Yazin ortasinda, Pazartesi Sendromuna karsi koyabilmek icin size de bol bol su icmenizi oneriyorum.
Eger cok su icemiyorsaniz, su bardaginizin icine limon dilimleri veya nane yapraklari gibi degisik tatlar eklemeyi deneyebilirsiniz !!!
Simdi, ben izninizle limon dilimlemeye gidiyorum ;)
Cupcake tadinda bir Pazartesi diliyorum !!!

Food for Friday #ff * Fabrika 7

Thank God it`s Friday !
Another week is almost over.
While you are pregnant you want days pass faster to meet your Cupcake baby soon :)
Also you think twice before eating in order to find the right and healthy food both for your body and baby !
My ob/gyn recommended me to eat hazelnuts, walnuts and molasse daily.
While I was trying to find the reliable brand, one of my friends mentioned me : Fabrika 7
Then, I received those nice packages !

Neyse ki Cuma günü geldi !
Bir hafta daha sona ermek üzere.
Hamileyken insan günler daha hızlı geçsin ki bir an önce Cupcake bebeği ile tanışsın istiyor :)
Ve tabiki birşey yemeden önce bu bedenim ve bebeğim için doğru yiyecek mi acaba diye iki kez düşünüyor !
Doktorum her gün fındık ceviz ve pekmez tüketmem gerektiğini söylediğinden beri doğru markayı arıyordum.
Bir arkadaşım hemen Fabrika 7 ismini söyledi.
Ve sonrasında da bu harika paketler eve geldi !

Fabrika 7 is a gourmet boutique corporation founded by ex-Brooklyners who moved to a small town by the Black Sea coast of Turkey.
Fabrika 7 is the end result of love and passion for food as well as the dreams that have come true.
Now, they produce healthy products blended with the hazelnut of the Black Sea and local flavors in a boutique atelier in Ünye.
And each product comes with a note acknowledging that it has been exclusively produced for you...

       *                   *                     *

Fabrika 7 uzun yıllar Brooklyn New Yorkda yaşadıktan sonra Karadeniz Ünyeye yerleşen bir çiftin kurdukları butik gurme bir gıda kuruluşu.
Yemeğe karşı duyulan tutku ve aşk hayallerini gerçekleştirme isteği ile birleşince ortaya çıkan bir marka.
Ünyede küçük bir atölyede Karadeniz fındığını yerel tatlarla birleştirip katkısız doğal ürünler üretiyorlar. 
En önemlisi de aldığınız her ürünün sizin için özel üretildiğini bilmek...

Fabrika 7 produces Hazelnut mixes, Exclusive Molasses and Exclusive Jams.
You can check detailed info and order the products at their website.

         *          *          *

Fabrika 7 fındık karışımları özel yapım pekmezler ve özel yapım reçeller üretiyor.
Websitelerinden ürünler hakkında daha detaylı bilgi alabilir ve sipariş verebilirsiniz.

This morning, I tasted their persimmon molasses and pepper & hazelnut mix.
So happy that Cupcake baby and I had healthy and natural food for the breakfast :)
Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are !!!

      *            *            *

Bu sabah Fabrika 7nin Karadeniz hurma pekmezini ve biberli fındık ezmesini denedim.
Cupcake bebek ve ben kahvaltıda sağlıklı ve doğal ürünler yediğimiz için çok mutluyuz :)
Bana ne yediğinizi söyleyinz size kim olduğunuzu söyliyeyim !!!

Have a Cupcake sweet Friday !!!

Cupcake tadında bir Cuma olsun !!!
