Coachella Festival

I like the idea of music festivals. One of my favourite is Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, called commonly Coachella Festival. It is a music event that takes place every year in Indio, California. It was founded in 1999 and became one of the most remarkable music festivals (“the best music festival”, according to Rolling Stone) that presents almost 200 artists on eight stages during three days.


Since the festival promotes diversity, music fans have occasion to see performances of such different artists as Azaelia Banks, Drake (hip hop), Hozier (indie rock, soul, blues), Charles Bradley (funk, soul), Belle and Sebastian (indie rock) or John Talabot (house music, electronic), Kiesza, Kimbra, Jack White, Florence + the Machine... In fact, the festival have presented yet the impressive number of widely-known artists, so it would be much easier to enumerate rather those who did not have ever performed there.

Easter baking

I am a big fan of baking, especially of Christmas and Easter baking. I enjoy the time of preparing dough with all the additives a lot,  then waiting impatiently for results and finally, seeing everyone helping themselves.

As some members of my family have food allergy, this year I decided to try to bake some vegan cakes. I chose a traditional poppy-seed cake with icing and lemon muffins. Muffins are definitely not one of the Polish dishes, I know! But we all like them and that is why I wanted to bake them, too. Fortunately, it was very easy to prepare them, because I had many other things to do.


I strongly recommend you this lemon version of muffins: the time of baking is short, the preparation – very easy, and they taste so delicious J  All you need is flour, sugar, baking soda, water, oil, and a lemon. I do not remember the address of the site where I found the recipe but I am sure you may easily find it if you try to write “vegan lemon muffins” (the original version contains also poppy seeds but I omitted it) in your browser.
