Koekjes en cupcakes

Vanaf mijn 12e jaar ben ik gegrepen door het bakvirus. Tot ik in een huis ging wonen waar de oven niet je van het was. Alle baksels storten in... Sinds 2008 heb ik een heerlijk Borettifornuis. Het was of een AGA of een Boretti. De AGA paste net niet, jammer. Je ziet hier chocoladekoekjes. Mini cupcakes, en grote cupcakes met marsepein.

Dus ik bak er weer op los!

Free Hugs

Look at this You Tube Video..Free Hugs in Sondrio Italy.

Long time no see.

There are some weeks, even months when you plan all kinds if things you have to do but at the end of the day, or the week, you have only done half of them. Sometimes life takes just over.

I made some celebrationflags, about 20 bibs in all kind of colors, made also 25 little rice pillows and 10 pair of fleece hot socks and worked at my Josephs Coat Quilt Along too.

Sorry that I don't have pictures. Normally I upload my pictures direct to my Facebook account, i can do that while I'm making the picture at the moment. But FB changed something so I can't download my pics anymore. So no more pics from me at facebook better keep them somewhere else. I think Facebook really sucks but what else to do if you want keep in contact with friends and family oversea.

In stead of quilting and sewing pictures I put some pictures from our balloon hunting last summer. :))

Osdorp Posse - Orgineel Amsterdams

In the eighties I was a big fan of Osdorp Posse. The song is totally in Dutch, and If you understand Duch you find the tekst maybe a little bit rude so if it is I'm very sorry for that. But I want to share some music from my youth with ya all. Funny that my kids and lots of other teenagers love Osdorps Posse to.

In de jaren 80 was ik een grote fan van Osdorps Posse. Liedje is op zijn "Amsterdams" en wellicht vind je de tekst te grof. Sorry daarvoor maar ik wilde graag dit liedje uit mijn jeugd met jullie delen. Vind je het niks gewoon niet op de link klikken. Misschien herken je het en vond je het zelf vroeger ook leuk!

Happy New Year!!!

I wish you all a happy, healthy and awesome 2011. I hope that all your wishes may come true.

Απόψε θέλω να πιω/ Χάρις Αλεξίου

Apopse Thelo Na Pio

"Apopse thelo na pio" (Tonight I want to drink)
Music: Antonis Vardis
Lyrics: Sofia Argiropoulou
Voice: Haris Alexiou

Κοίτα τι έκανες

ΑΠΟΨΕ ΘΕΛΩ ΝΑ ΠΙΩ
Μουσική: Αντώνης Βαρδής
Στίχοι: Σοφία Αργυροπούλου
Ερμηνεία: Χάρις Αλεξίου

Απόψε θέλω να πιω
τίποτα μετά να μη θυμάμαι
μέσα στον καπνό να παγιδευτώ
συνέπειες να μη φοβάμαι

Απόψε θέλω να πιω
θέλω να ξεφύγω από τα όριά μου.
Μέσα στον καπνό να εξομολογηθώ.
Για τα χαμένα όνειρά μου.

Θα ανάβω με τσιγάρα
θα σβήνω με ποτά...
τώρα που πήρα τη λαχτάρα
στάχτη να γίνουν όλα πια.

Απόψε θέλω να πιω...
Όλους κι όλα να τα διαγράψω.
Μέσα στον καπνό να εξαφανιστώ
πίσω να μην ξανακοιτάξω

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I want to get drunk tonight
so I can remember nothing
trap myself in the smoke
and be afraid of nothing

I want to get drunk tonight
I want to exceed my limits
lost in the smoke, I want to confess
about my broken dreams

I'll set myself on fire with cigarettes
I'll set it out with drinks
now that everything is gone
I don't care even if doomsday comes

I want to get drunk tonight
so I can forget everyone and everything
disappear in the smoke
and never look back again
