Sundown

A Little Monday Afternoon Cheer Up

Amazing slow motion + I LOVE the music!!



Oh, and the dogs are pretty cute too ;)

A Little Monday Morning Rant

Okay, people. I've completely had it with this stupid neck/shoulder-problem of mine!!!!!!

As if having constant pain for almost a year now isn't bad enough, my neck is now officially standing between me and crafting.... Yes! You heard that right!!! I can't craft anymore without days and days of pain afterwards!!! :(

Seriously, neck.

HOW DARE YOU?!?!?!



Because of you and all the stupid pain you bring me, I'll probably be working on this little baby blanket for years and years, because I can only crochet 15 minutes a week, and the baby it's made for won't even be a baby anymore by the time I'm finished!!!

Darn you, neck!!

DARN YOU!!!!!!!!

(...)

Ah. Well. Okay... Guess I had to get that out of my system... ;)

Now let's continue the week without complaining, and focussing on the good stuff shall we? :) Have a good Monday everyone!!

Saving cats and stuff :)

Hey there Blogland!! Forgive me for my lack of blogging this past week....



.... but I've been too busy saving cats and stuff ;)

Apparently J has collected so many records, cats now get lost in his room... ;) She was only able to climb out after she woke us up with her loud screams and we built her a ladder made of shoes...

Ah, cats! You gotta love them!! ;)

Blue Monday

Apparently today is Blue Monday, and we're all supposed to feel more crappy than we would on any other Monday ;) Fortunately today was a beautiful day in my part of the world, so instead of hanging around feeling shitty, I decided to take a long, therapeutic walk into The Wild!!









There's nothing better than coming home after a long walk and making yourself a nice cup of tea (especially when it's a delicious kind of tea that tastes like spiced gingerbread!!!)...



... and treating yourself to some homemade meringue!!!



No, this Monday wasn't so bad. Not bad at all :)

I ♥ Cake

I'm not saying emotional eating is a good plan. I'm just saying food can make you feel soooo happy ;) Last Christmas I got the most amazing book ever: I ♥ Cake by Trish Deseine.



Just looking at the pictures is pure bliss in itself!



Peanutbutter & chocolate cookies anyone???



YES PLEASE!!! :)



Best part is that there are soooo many amazing recipes in this book that I would actually feel comfortable making! Some are pretty complex, but most of them seem very very doable, and so very very delicious :) I started marking the ones I wanted to try, and just kept on going and going :)



I can't wait to get started!! :)

2011 Recap: October

I've had quite a lot on my mind these past few weeks, and it has left me rather exhausted to be honest... I just can't find myself to spend energy on crafts, or blogging, or any of the other stuff I love. And then of course I feel guilty for not spending time on blogging or crafts, and I feel even worse!! ;)

So instead of feeling guilty I will just use my unfinished 2011 recap as the perfect excuse to blog about a month where I clearly did have energy for crafts: October!!







October was filled with creative workshops, crafting, colors and even sunshine!!







Ah, that lovely bright sunshine!! :) Makes me feel better already! ;) And to completely forget my worries for today, I'll just look at a baby weasel...



... and all is well ;)
