Spring shopping!

Went to Ikea last saturday and found these great things to cheer up the garden... just to begin with! So let the sun shine, Iam ready! :-)

Couch potato!

After a tiring day at work I'm watching 'Grey's Anatomy', and that has nothing to do with McDreamy... ;-)

Smells like summer....

Adorable perfumes! The super-kawaii girls: Love, Lil'Angel, Baby, Music and G. are totally dressed for summer!
To be honest I have no idea what the perfume smells like, but the 'package' is fab!

My own Bed & Breakfast! :-)

Went with N. to a garden-centre today. Had fun, bought some nice plants and looked at all the different birdhouses. Almost took this one home, would be so cool to have my own Bed & Breakfast! Iam sure the birds will love it, and I would just look at it and dream away!

Girls with a social life definetely need these! :-)

No Business Cards! Isn't that a fabulous idea? I can see myself handing them out while meeting new people! So sweet, instead of some old little piece of paper found on the bottom of my purse ....

Keeping the dream alive...

"Dickens's dream".
An unfinished painting by R.W. Buss 1872.
Showing Dickens in his study at Gads Hill Place, surrounded by creatures of his imagination.
I'm not sure if I'd rather be in one of his dreams or that I wanna dream his dreams, it both must be surreal! Always loved this painting!

Diamonds are a girls best friend!

Put ice-cold diamonds in your champagne...Very classy gadget... ;-)

Have a break,have a lunch! ;-)

Around 12 o'clock today I went for lunch with M. It was so nice to see him again! We had lunch at Christoffel, www.restaurant-christoffel.nl Great place and had some delicious 'kroketten'! I'm so crazy about 'kroketten'!
For the ones who don't know these 'kroketten'... check: www.coquinaria.nl/english/recipes/Stock/Kroket.htm

Flowers make your day!

Last week I sent this postcard to somebody, it's such a cheerful card! Today W. surprised me with a bunch of tulips in different colours! Can't wait... Let spring begin!!!

German Tigerente

I have a sort of crush on Tigerente although I sort of forgot about him. I "met" tigerente in 1996 in Germany while visiting a friend there. I immediately fell in love with this tigerduck. ;-)
I didn't think about him but recently somebody asked me what kinda postcard I would like to receive. I told E. (as he's from Germany) that I wanted to see Tigerente again and now he's back in my life...
Isn't he adorable...???
Hahaha :-)

Wanna haves! :-)

Just read that there's gonna be a presale next week, gonna try to get some of these beautiful wineglasses @ Riviera Maison!

Black out

Yesterday around 16:00 o'clock suddenly all the lights went out, the whole street was dark as the snow was still falling outside! We had a black out for about one and a half hour.... But no worries, we drank wine by candle light!

Snowy Holland!

Although my cellphone is broken (again...) and it's freezing cold outside... I'm enjoying this day, especially inside the house nearby the fireplace. I always feel like a little child when the snowflakes are falling down, it's so magical!

First one!

This weekend I received my first christmas-card, sent by Christian from the USA. I love the christmas-feeling... It's such a special period of the year!
(by the way, it's a 1930's gift wrap design)

Just for fun!

Just a picture of me.... Don't I just look like a very important careerwoman? Which I'm actually not, I don't work at an office anyway...!

Dushi!!!!

As a result of my stay in Aruba I like al dushi's! ;-)
I discovered these : www.dushilikeyou.com
You can make a personal dushi, don't you just wanna have one!!!

www.postcrossing.com

This morning I sent this card to Daniel in the UK, I read in in his profile that he would like to receive cards with girls.... :-)
For a few months I'm into www.postcrossing.com
I love it, the sending and the receiving of the cards from all around the world. To find them in my mail... it feels like little presents!

A day at the beach....

Spent my weekend at the Dutch coast, enjoyed the sun and the wind. Hoped that the wind would blow all my thoughts away...even for just a minute...
