The one with signs of spring

Although we are having a rainy day, and more rain is being predicted for the rest of the week, the first signs of spring are here! I am happy as a bird with a french fry whenever I see the sun peeping through the clouds, or pretty pink blossoms. How are things weather-wise in your neck of the woods? Looking forward to spring?

Took a walk with mom last friday to an old factory, on our way we came across this

And this. More about our 'adventure' next week

Makes me want to bake something

Lots and lots of eggs

 Don't these look lovely?

My hometown's soccer club won their match last friday, and by that, made it back to our countries top division again. Even the church was in on the celebration.

Hope you're having a wonderful Easter, enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Those sniffles turned into the flu, and most of my time was spent on my mothers couch. Together with blankets, hot water bottles, tea, fresh juices, and bowls of soup. Not much worth photographing was seen the beginning of this week, and the last half of the week before that. That´s why I combined those two weeks into one post. I hope the flu hasn´t found you, and you´re having a great weekend!

 

Parties in the streets

One of my favourites shops happens to be just around the corner

Not the friendliest of garden gnomes. When I shot this one, I thought they were just waving hello

I do love leopard print everything!

Going to a nearby fabric shop

Spring is on its way!

Bits of spring, seen at the market

A door, and a surpise owl that I didn't spot when I made this photo

Translation: how can you cook something with love, that wasn't produced with love

If only this truck had a different delivery address...

I should ask where my neighbours got their green thumbs :-)

Happy weekend!

The one with the things I liked this week (56)

Last weekend my friend Roos came over for a visit. She lives in Leeuwarden, which is 2,5 hours away by train so we don't get to see eachother very often. I picked her up at the trainstation and we had a walk. On our walk we bumped into a piece of art I've never noticed before. It consists of two poles with one ear each. It's just two minutes away from home, so I wonder what else is right there under my nose. After doing some research, I discovered that there are 8 of these poles throughout the city. Between 1974 and 1987 the city asked several artists to make a pole. This one was one of the last to be added to the collection and it was made by Dutch sculptor Jerome Symons. I also found a wall this week that had an encounter with someone who has a singing heart. Other than that I walked home through the park after work one day, where signs of spring are showing and new friends were made.

The one with a little bit of spring

Last weekend was full of wind, rain and low temperatures. 
I did see a little bit of spring. Hoping to see lots more very soon!

an attempt at eating healthy things

Ok, I failed in the healthy department, but I thought this would be
my last cup of hot chocolate before spring really starts. Unfortunately, more
snow is being predicted for this weekend (so there might be more of these)

on the streets

easter is near

I am having a ma-jor crush on this coat. Even though it's for boys, I can
see it totally be worn with skinny jeans and bright ballet flats
