Little things

The warm sun.
A fresh summer breeze.
A soft, colorful blanket.
The grass beneath my bare feet.

Just a few little things I enjoyed today.

Strawberries & whipped cream

It's Sunday.
It's raining.
I'm restless.

That's it, people: all I need to justify comfort food ;)

And hell! This is not even real comfort food! It contains FRUIT, which makes it a healthy snack! Don't you see all those super HEALTHY, beautiful strawberries?

They're right underneath that ginormous amount of whipped cream. Being all healthy and stuff ;)

YUM!!!!! :)

There... and back again

After weeks of looking forward to my holiday, I can't believe how quickly it flew by!!! :( Sure, it's good to be home again... but I wouldn't mind adding another couple of weeks (or months... or YEARS ;) to happy, careless, sunny days in a foreign country!!

I left J at home and together with a friend took the train (or actually: three trains and a bus) to Sauerland, Germany...

... where we woke up to wonderful views...

... hiked through beautiful mountains and fields...

... past beautiful streams...

... and rested beneath green branches.

In other words: we had a lovely, lovely time!! And I can't believe it's over already. I'm glad I took about a gazillion photographs...

... so I can still relive my holiday as much as I'd like ;)

Three days to go... YAY! :)

I wasn't really planning to go on holiday this summer as I always go in Spring and Autumn. But since it was a bit quiet at work and I was suddenly in serious need of a break, I just decided to GO. I always over-analyse, so booking a vacation on a whim is quiet spontaneous for me... and I cannot begin to tell you how much I'm looking forward to it! ;) We leave on Friday, and I'm counting down the days...

Meanwhile, I'm practicing my 'embroidery' 'skills'... ;)

It could not be more crooked but hey: at least the motto is a good one, right? :)
