The one advertisement that keeps annoying me....

Considering how unreliable and unpredictable they have proven to be the last two years, I always wanna shout:

WHY DON'T YOU, THEN????

It's drawing nearer and nearer..........

The sign that is sadly hidden by the lamppost say's:

En wat doe jij voor Oranje?

And what do you do for our "orange" - Soccerteam?

So, what DO you do for the World Championships?

{This moment}

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.

Wishing you a lovely weekend!

Winter preparation

It's may, but the weather inspires winter preparations ;-) 9 degrees celsius and clouds.

I've got the cans unloaded -> that's the whole bounty for 12 euro's.

No. I didn't count them.

A day on the road

On our Dutch online marketplace I've bought glas storage containers to put up the bounty from our allotment for winter.
This year I want to learn all about canning.

Since the person I've bought them from lived in an area I normally never get to, I had a lovely day sightseeing to boot.
Lovely weather for traveling:

An eco - farmshop relativly close to us:

they have the setup for chickens I dream of for our future.....grazing in the fruitgarden:

flowering "weeds" at the trail:

I always take the opportunity to visit second - hand - shops when I'm in a different area. Even though I eventually found the clips to hold the glasses shut for sterilizing right here in our own village second hand shop. ;-)

A very successful day!
Now if the cold would go away to let me start the garden........please?

Just the way I like it. From greenhouse to mouth in about 2,5 minutes.
Folia is a big help in continuing to sow on a regular basis. About every ten day's a new short row - even though I now sow outside, will give us a uninterrupted flow of fresh greens all summer long.
