Ode to the promise of spring '12



Last weekend the most wonderful thing happened! And you know, it happens each year, but after the first time it easily becomes 'normal'. So this makes the first time simply magical. I'm referring to the first time in a year you hear... the sound of the birds singing outside when you wake up early in the morning! This means the promise of spring '12. And this makes me utterly happy! Can't wait for the first sunbeams on my face whilst sitting on my balcony, the flowers to grow, national skirts day (thank you Martin Bril;) enjoying a sauvignon blanc on a terrace and a picnic in the park! Love it!

Ode to all the lemons in the world

Really! I absolutely love lemons. Slices in my water (with some fresh mint of course), lemonice, pieces of lemon in a grilled fish or just squeeze it over the fish afterwards. And: lemonjuice lightens your hair! I often use this in the summer. I'm actually in a state of panic when I'm out of lemons. So one could say: I'm addicted to lemons. Therefore on this friday morning: an ode to all the lemons in the world!
