At the cafe


Happiness is when I finally found this photograph that I bought in a bookstore several years ago. Isn´t it lovely?

Life is short eat cookies



It's apple time now in my garden and I enjoy these delicious fruits. You can do so much with them. For example, applesauce, apple juice and why not apple pie. Yummie!



Here is a recipe of the world's most delicious apple cake. Bake and enjoy!

2 eggs
2 cup sugar
2 cups flour
200 gr melted butter
4-5 apples, preferably a little sour
cinnamon
whipped cream with vanilla


Preheat the oven to 175 degrees.
Begin by melting the butter and allow to cool.
Peel the apples and cut it into bite-thick pieces. Add about 3 / 4 parts of the apples in a greased and bedded form.
Beat the eggs with the sugar a little light, so that it becomes porous.
Mix in the flour and then the melted butter.
Stir into a smooth batter.
Pour over apples. Next, add the rest of the apple pieces on top.
Sprinkle with cinnamon and a little sugar.
Into the oven (bottom) 175 degrees for about 45-50 min
Beat whipped cream with vanilla fluffy and add to the cake, it is super fresh and delicious.

Fragments of a life





I bought this wonderful coffetablebook about Marilyn Monroe. Imagine being able to read Marilyn's diaries, collected poems, inner thoughts and unfortunately difiicult anxiety. Crawl low under the skin of this legendary beautiful and inspiring woman. All with fascinating pictures and ideas. After I read Joyce Carol Oates novel about her Blonde, I'm totally stuck in Marilyns destiny.

Sniff sniff!



My loved ones have been traveling in Europe. I received a small gift. A small dose of Paris in a small bottle. Smells so wonderful that the hairs on my neck stands up.

Happiness



Happiness is when you have a new book from your favourite author Joyce Carol Oates and a cup of coffee when it´s raining cats and dogs outside. Happy sunday folks!

J'adore Paris




















My next destination will be Paris. So it is. There are over 20 years since I was there last so I have a lot to catch up. Found these wonderful photographs of Yanidel . Click in there and follow the seasons and see how the environment changes and people’s clothes change as.
Here is a song. French of course!
