The one with the things I liked this week (128)

 Love the colour of amethyst!

More purple

Something fun on the streets of Arnhem

Windowshopping, and a rare selfie

 Celebrating my uncles 80th birthday, I had one of the pink marzipan cakes :-)

 Our view during coffee

Love this lamp. If I had a bigger apartment (and I guess a slightly bigger budget), I would definitely consider taking it home with me!

How is your weekend going so far? Anything good going on in your corner of the world? I got some work done yesterday and travelled to Arnhem, where friend E. will be opening a new shop soon. There was some work to get done, so I tried lending a hand. Not quite sure if I was very usefull, because I am not very handy. But it's the thought that counts, right? Today I will be doing some chores around the house. And I may watch a couple of episodes of Fringe (I recently treated myself to Netflix.... very dangerous). Wishing you a happy sunday, and see you next week!

  1. I love the shot of the amethyst. Where did you find such a bundle?! So far my weekend has been going pretty good. I got a pedicure yesterday and went to go see Trainwreck with my friends. It was a hilarious movie and now I'm just relaxing on a Sunday. I may make something today. I've been in the mood for making stuff.

  2. Love all the purples here!
    Our weekend was a bit stay at home, relaxed kind....with some homemade pizza of course:)
    Singapore is all full of festivities as it is her 50th birthday next Sunday! Lots going on here, as we stay in downtown we don't miss the fun even if we stay at home, get all updates from our balcony and windows!
    I also listed some pumpkins in my shop, they have been really 'best sellers' for me so far, so I decided to expand them a bit:)
    Have a lovely Sunday!!

  3. Amethyst is so beautiful. I love it when it is rough cut like that. Cute selfie. :)
    The sweets from your uncle's birthday look perfectly delicious.
    I must agree that Netflix is mighty dangerous! I haven't seen Fringe (yet). Jim and I are obsessed with Prison Break (American) and I am watching Velvet (Spanish) on my own. Way too much television!

    1. I loved the first two seasons of Prison Break! Although I think the final season was horrible, and I didn't watch it all the way through... I've never heard of Velvet, we don't have it over here. Is it good?

    1. I do love that style of lamps, although I think they need a big space. And amethyst is one of my favourite stones, but shape and colour.

  6. My weekends have been busy just like my weekdays! I have a lot of clients right now because it's a popular time of year to move or remodel, so everybody wants a hand. Love all of the purple!
