Meet Zuzana Paar
Hi, I’m Zuzana, co-founder of Food Drink Life and the mastermind behind Lowcarb-Nocarb. As a passionate recipe
developer, content creator, food writer, filmmaker and photographer, I've dedicated myself to crafting blogs for clean-eating recipes, sustainable living inspiration and awe-inspiring travel tales.
My Favorite Things
As we settle into the heart of winter, I have found a few key items that boost my mood and keep me comfortable. Here's what really makes the difference in my home and while traveling.
Winter home
During the winter months, I focus on creating a warm haven in my home, and I hope my go-to products will make your place as cozy as mine.
Feather Down Comforter is one blanket we all fight for during winter. Experience the soft and fluffy texture of goose feathers for yourself and see first-hand why so many people are making the switch.
2. Bedsure Sherpa Fleece King Size Blanket: Adding an extra layer to avoid the cold, the Bedsure Sherpa Fleece King Size Blanket is a winter must-have. It's soft, snug and perfect for those lazy afternoons and movie nights. Forget about the winter cold and wrap yourself in a fleece blanket.
3. Ceramic Owl Mugs: Sipping hot cocoa or tea from Ceramic Owl Mugs has become a cherished winter tradition. Their charm and creative designs help enliven our winter evenings, making
every sip a delightful experience. Stop drinking from boring coffee cups and try an owl coffee mug instead!
4. Ontel Handy Heater: The Ontel Handy Heater is a compact powerhouse that keeps our space warm and comfortable. It's the perfect addition to our winter home, providing instant heat
whenever and wherever needed. It’s also portable, so no matter where you are traveling, the handy heater will make any room the perfect temperature.
Winter travel
Even though I wish summer could last all year long, living in Vienna does not allow me that joy. I may be freezing wherever I go, but I can still enjoy winter with these must-have essentials.
1. Windshield Cover Kit for Ice and Snow: The Windshield Cover for Ice and Snow is my go-to winter travel companion. It's a time-saver, protecting our car from frost and snow. Say goodbye to early morning scraping — get yourself a windshield cover, and be ready for your next snowy adventure.
For those chilly outings, the Coffee Carafe with Pump is my winter essential. It keeps our favorite brew hot for hours, providing the perfect warmth. Stored in the car and filled with hot tea or coffee, we are always
ready for a hot drink after a long day
outside. I’m saving so much, too, without having to buy coffee and hot drinks! Get a Coffee Carafe for yourself and see how much you can save.
3. Everlasting Comfort Boot Dryer: The Everlasting Comfort Boot Dryer is a game-changer for our winter getaways. It ensures our boots are dry and ready for the next day's snowy adventures. That cozy, warm feeling you get when putting these boots on is out of this world. And, if you have kids,
they’ll love putting their feet into warm boots, too.
“Welcome, winter. Your late dawns and chilled breath make me lazy, but I love you nonetheless.”

Winter kitchen
Let's talk about kitchen vibes, where simplicity is key. I've handpicked kitchen essentials that make winter cooking a joy.
The Fullstar Vegetable Chopper is my kitchen hero not only during winter. It simplifies meal prep, making it quick and efficient. I will never forget the day I bought this vegetable chopper and tried it for the first time. It's a life changer!
2. Electrolyte Water Enhancers: Staying hydrated is key, even in winter. A water enhancer adds a burst of flavor to water, making it easier to meet our daily hydration goals. It's a tasty and healthy choice for the entire family, especially since we are living a low-carb lifestyle. Read more about water enhancers here!
3. Cafe Du Chateau Brew Perfect Iced Coffee: For coffee enthusiasts like me, the Cafe Du Chateau Brew Perfect Iced Coffee maker is a winter delight. It brings a touch of refreshment to those cozy indoor days, creating the perfect iced coffee with ease. If you are an iced coffee fanatic like me, you are going to love this.
4. Le Chateau Red Wine Decanter:Enjoy winter evenings with the Le Chateau Red Wine Decanter. It adds a touch of elegance to our dining experience, enhancing the flavors of our favorite red wines by letting the wine aerate before serving. A decanter is a simple yet stylish and impactful addition to your kitchen that no
wine lover should be without. It makes a great gift, too!
