elderflowers


elianne always has the best recipes for lemonade. Last year
i made her ginger-lemongrass lemonade which was stunning,
and now she's showed me how to make lemonade of
elderflowers. My grandpa helped me pick elderflowers in the
back of their garden. I was a little scared seeing him climb
on the ladder, but he wanted to do the climbing, i just had
to make sure he wouldn't fall. I just tasted my first glass
and it is delicious! Maybe because there's not only elderflowers,
but also a little love added.

make sure i had one, and now i have 10.

dip



feeling a little funny browsing through martha stewart's blog
and actually liking some of the ideas. She tried out dipping
a woven basket in a load of paint. It does look nice!

cherries




we managed to pick some cherries at my boyfriends house
before the birds ate them all. Wouldn't it normally be a few
more weeks before cherries are at their best? these were
perfect and i ate them all the way home. And i loved how
they matched my new scarf.

weakness / happyness


you remember the book sale? I went there the first day and
walked out with a pile of books for hardly any money! i just
couldn't manage to let such a bargain pass... i will find a
spot somewhere. Oh and i bought the nicest buttons from
martha verschaffel.

have a great weekend!

theatre overwhelmed and full of emotions. I wish
i could see one of her pieces live.

letterfountain



great news! 'de letterfontein' which must be one of the best
books on typography available is now published in english too.
The dutch edition was rather small and exclusive, but this
english one is available at taschen in the same layout. It will
show you things you hadn't noticed before, a musthave if
letters fascinate you.

Oh and tonight i'm finally going to see the movie Pina.
I'm excited! (my first 3D experience too!)

antwerpen feest


a ballet flashmob, a concert on the rooftop, hearing one of
my favorite songs
live and fireworks in the end. 3 great days
celebrating the opening of a new museum, think i'm going
to enjoy one more day tomorrow. I haven't even had the time
to go inside!
