Tmi tag

It's been such a long time since Lauren, from daisy-drops, tagged me to do this "Too much information" tag so I thought it was time I answered. Thanks a lot for tagging me, Lauren. If you haven't checked her blog, you totally should! I love it almost just as much as I love her ;) She's seriously one of the most adorable and amazing people I know. And back to the tag... I hope you enjoy getting to know me more than you should and... well... let's get personal now! ;)

1. What are you wearing?

Coral-colored pants, a write shirt and Oxford shows. Nothing out of the ordinary...

2. Ever been in love?

Yep. 

3. Ever had a terrible breakup?

Yep. I mean, I was devastated so I guess. 

4. How tall are you?

Around 5 "3'

5. How much do you weigh?

To be honest, I don't know. And I don't want to know. 

6. Any tattoos?

Nope. 

7. Any piercings?

Nope. 

8. OTP (One True Pairing: what's your favourite fictional couple)?

Hhmm... My favorite is from a Spanish TV show (el internado) but since nobody knows it, I'm going for Chuck & Blair. 

9. Favourite show?

A lot! How I met your mother, gossip girl, Aida (that's a Spanish one), Casi Angeles (Argentinian), Friends, Greek, OUAT, Supernatural...

10. Favourite bands?

McFly, Action Item, Jack's Mannequin, Lifehouse, Dashboard Confessional, Goo Goo Dolls, Secondhand serenade, The Fray...

11. Something you miss?

Seeing someone in particular in Madrid...

12. Favourite song?

I can't choose just one, but it's probably one of these:

• Belle of the Boulevard - Dashboard Confessional
• Swim - Jack's Mannequin
• Iris - Goo Goo Dolls
• Bubblewrap - McFly
• The airplane song - Scouting for girls

13. How old are you?

20

14. Zodiac sign?

Sagittarius.

15. Quality you look for in a partner?

Loyalty, kindness... I don't know. I just want someone that can give me the feels and that I'm happy with. Like you sometimes meet someone and you're like "ok. He's perfect", but he doesn't make you feel anything. And you don't mind if you're with him or not. And then you meet someone, and you don't even know why but you can't get him out of your head and all you want is to be with him and talk to him. And it doesn't matter if he's in a relationship with someone else or you haven't talked in months, you still can't forget about him no matter how much you want and try to. And you just know there's something about that person. Or maybe I'm just weird. 

16: Favourite Quote?

I'm not sure it's really a quote, but... it's still my favorite:

It's a bit long, but it's perfect!

I don't have one.

18: Favourite color?

Pink. 

19: Loud music or soft?

Soft.

I tend to sit on my bed and listen to music, I like to be on my own when I'm sad.

(I kept Lauren's answer cause I'm the same)

21: How long does it take you to shower?

It depends on a lot of things. I can take from a song, to half an hour. (Yes. I measure shower time in songs)

22: How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

Like nearly an hour, including breakfast, and wasting time because I miss my bed. 

23: Ever been in a physical fight?

Nope.

24: Turn on?

Gentlemanliness, kindness, a good smell, nice fashion taste, good music taste, sense of humor.

Rudeness, swearing, bad writing. 

26: The reason I joined Youtube?

I haven't.

Stress. I don't know, I cry a lot.

My Thomas Sabo bracelet. It's perfect.

Kit-kat cake

You've probably seen this cake a million times on the internet. At least, I had, and it's something I'd always wanted to try. So when my sister told me she wanted to make a cake for her friend's birthday and she didn't know how to decorate it... this came to my mind!
Probabemente hayáis visto esta tarta un millón de veces en internet. Yo, por lo menos, sí, y era algo y que siempre quise probar a hacer. Así que cuando mi hermana me dijo que quería hacer una tarta para el cumpleaños de una amiga suya y que no sabía como decorarla... pensé en esto.

I must admit, it was her who baked the cakes, although I gave her the recipes. I've had a couple of birthdays this month and this has been my go-to cake! So when she asked me what cake to bake, I knew she couldn't go wrong with this one.

Tengo que admitir que las tartas las cocinó ella, aunque la receta se la di yo. Este cumpleaños he tenido un par de cumpleaños y esta tarta era una apuesta segura. Así que cuando me preguntó qué tarta podía hacer, sabía que no podía equivocarse con ésta.

Once she baked the cakes, she didn't know how to decorate it, so I suggested doing this and she liked the idea so I helped her decorate it and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

Una vez que hizo las tartas, no sabía como decorarlas, así que sugerí que hiciésemos esto y le gustó la idea, así que le ayudé a decorarla y estoy bastante contenta con cómo salió.

Ingredients

• 1 1/3 cups flour
  1 1/3 tazas de harina
• 2 tablespoons pure cocoa powder
  2 cucharadas de cacao puro
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
  1 cucharada de levadura
• 3/4 cup room-temperature butter
  3/4 taza de mantequilla a temperatura ambiente
• 1 cup white sugar
  1 taza azúcar blanca
• 3 eggs
  3 huevos
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  1 cucharadita estracto de vainilla
• 2 tablespoons milk
  2 cucharadas leche

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF / 180ºC
   Precalienta el horno a 180ºC (350ºF)
2. In a big bowl (or in the bowl of an electric mixer), mix butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla extract.
   En un bol grande, o en el de una batidora eléctrica, mezca la mantequilla, azúcar, huevos y estracto de vainilla.
3. In a small bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder and baking powder.
   En un bol pequeño, mezcla la harina, cacao y levadura.
4. Add the second mix into the first mix and mix everything again. Add milk and mix once more.
   Añade la segunda mezcla a la primera y vuelve a mezclar. Añade la leche y mezcla una vez más.
5. Split the cake batter into 2 tins and bake them for 25 minutes aprox.
   Reparte la masa en 2 moldes de tarta y mételos en el horno 25 minutos aprox.

Once you've baked your cakes, we joined ours with nutella. Then, buy a lot of candy and kitkats and stick the kit kats around the cake using more nutella.

Una vez hayas cocinado las tartas, nosotras juntamos las nuestras con nutella. Luego, compra un montón de caramelos y kitkats y pega los kitkats alrededor de la tarta usando más nutella.

DIY Custom phone cases

Hey!

It has been a while since my last post, but I'm back! University is taking like 110% of my time, which is why I can never write blog posts, but I decided to find a little time to write one.
Hacía mucho que no escribía aquí, pero ¡he vuelto! La universidad se lleva como el 110% de mi tiempo, por eso nunca tengo tiempo para escribir en el blog, pero he decidido que tenía que sacar un huequito de donde sea para escribir uno.

Some time ago, this Spanish pizza place launched a promotion were they gave you a custom phone case. So I started thinking on what to print on mine, and there were so many things I wanted to print that I couldn't make my mind up. So I thought of this DIY and I finally had time to do it so I wanted to share it with you!
Hace tiempo, una pizzería sacó una oferta con la que te daban una funda personalizada. Así que estuve pensando en que imprimir en la mía, y había demasiadas cosas que quería así que no me he conseguido decidir aun. Así que pensé en este tutrial y por fin he tenido tiempo para hacerlo hoy y quería compartirlo con vosotros.

All you need is:
Sólo se necesita:

• A clear case
  Una funda transparente
• Scissors
  Tijeras
• An x-acto knife
  Un cuter
• A mechanical pencil
  Un portaminas
• Scrapbook paper / a photo / a printed pattern ... whatever you want in your case.
  Papel para scrapbook / una foto / un diseño impreso... yo que queráis en vuestra funda.

We're gonna start off by placing our paper  with the pattern on onto a table and our phone on top and using the mechanical pencil, we'll trace the border. Then, cut your design out.
Empezaremos por colocar el papel encima de la mesa y nuestro móvil encima. Con el portaminas, dibujaremos el contorno del movil. Luego, recórtalo.

Now, insert the piece you've just cut into your clear case and insert your phone. We now need to cut the camera hole. Using the mechanical pencil, trace the shape of the gap. Take out the phone and the piece of paper and cut the shape you just traced with the x-acto knife.
Ahora, necesitaremos recortar el agujerito de la cámara. Mete el papel que has cortado en la funda y pónsela al móvil. Con el cortaminas, marca el contorno del hueco de la cámara. Saca el móvil y el papel y recorta el hueco con el cuter.

You can now insert the paper again and.... voila! You have your own custom case! You can also create your own designs on photoshop and print them like I did.
Ahora vuelve a meter el papel y... ¡Ya tienes tu funda personalizada! También puedes crear tus propios diseños en photoshop e imprimirlos como hice yo.

Oh! And here's a completely random photo of me to finish the post...

Festive hairclips

It is almost Christmas! And I wanted to make a lot of Christmas posts and didn't make any at all, so I am very sorry. But I'm finally writing one today! Yay! I thought this was a great idea because it's a very easy and quick DIY, and it would be a very good last-minute gift idea or stocking stuffer. And it also looks pretty cute!
¡Ya es casi Navidad! Quería hacer un montón de entradas de Navidad y al final no he hecho ninguna. Lo siento. Pero por fin hoy estoy escribiendo una! Wee! Esta idea me pareció genial porque es muy fácil y rápida de hacer y es perfecta para un regalo de última hora. Además, queda muy mono.

First, I painted some bobby pins using nail-polish as shown is an tutorial I posted in the summer and you can find it here.
Primero, pinté unas horquillas con pintauñas como en un tutorial que hice en verano y que podéis encontrar aquí. 

I also bought some hair clips and little gift bows and pasted the bows to the clips to make the other kind of clips.

Para el otro tipo, compré pinzas y lacitos para regalos y los pegué a las pinzas.

And that's it! It's as simple as that! So I hope you like it, and have a very happy holidays! 

¡Y eso es todo! Es así de fácil. Así que espero que os guste, y que tengáis unas muy felices fiestas!

Chocolate caramel shortbread

It is finally December aka the best month in the year! I'm so excited. This is something I'd been wanting to bake for quite some time now, and since it was my birthday today and my house is probably going to get a little bit crowded, I decided it was time I did.
¡Por fin es diciembre, aka el mejor mes del año! ¡Qué ilusión! Esto es algo que llevaba tiempo queriendo intentar hacer, y como hoy era mi cumpleaños y mi casa probablemente va a estas llena de gente, decidí que era el momento de hacerlo.

It took a bit longer than I excepted, but I love how it turned out and they taste great so it was totally worth it! To be honest, taking a good picture of them was almost harder than making them. But I'm so happy I finally baked them.

Me llevó un poco más de tiempo de lo que esperaba, pero me encanta cómo salieron y estaban super buenas así que definitivamente, mereció la pena. Para ser sincera, hacerles una buena foto fue casi más dificíl que hacerlas.

I found the recipe on Pinterest and it's from Le creme de la crumb.
La receta la encontré en Pinterest y es de Le creme de la crumb (en inglés).

This one was of the best birthdays I can remember and I'm just so grateful for everybody I have in my life. Having a good birthday is brand new to me and I just wanted to add this little "paragraph" to share my happiness with you.

El de hoy ha sido uno de los mejores cumpleaños que recuerdo y estoy muy agradecida por la gente que tengo en mi vida. Tener un buen cumpleaños es algo nuevo para mí, así que quería añadir este parrafillo para compartilo con vosotros.

xx With Love, Be.
