baking apprentice: banoffee to get you out of (almost) everything




after centuries of sugar input, i decided make a contribution to the world by actually making a desert, instead of consuming it. 
here is the famous banoffee recipe i've been obsessing over.

what lies ahead


this picture was shot a long time ago.
but i find myself feeling like that girl over and over again.
with a vast landscape ahead of me and just taking a deep breath before it all begins.
i really do enjoy turning my back on what is left in the past. 
because you need to let go. 
and i am glad i did. 
*
the most amazing song from the place beyond the pines soundtrack keeps me company.
just before i take my leap of faith.

f / m

i like these pictures.
they are like the female and male chaotic versions of paros.
and i like this song. 
this is my attempt to persuade you to like the pictures too.
using the talent of daft punk. 
*
and this is my goodbye to pure logic.
logic that calls things by their name and that believes that one plus one equals two.
everything seems to be illogical lately. and balance seems to have deserted us.

the damage is done



 paros is full of nice spots to rest under the shadow 
and there you can see the light making the flowers fluorescent 

and the ground has flower confetti
you can find ladybugs at the beach

at the end of the day you let your bikini dry next to some old towels

and your balcony is close to heaven

hey, but what do you know: the damage is done

maps



maps that hopefully will get me to the other side.
and songs that will get me through the day.
and the usual crap. you know.

thursday bliss



happiness is seriously overflowing my body.
a beautiful pot of white orchids that makes me feel special and brings may on my desk.
a colorful clutch that insists i listen to this over and over and read this until i know it by heart.

retirement session 02






a visit to the painting school my dad goes to, since retiring.
life is good. life is good indeed.

this morning




three things that make my morning special.
my window curtain dancing around the soft wind and morning light.
a bracelet bought on a special day.
spring flowers from my garden and lavender that takes this arrangement on a whole new level.
and a tune for my morning coffee.
