So in my quest for more health for myself, I started juicing a lot. So here are some pics of my juices. Ingredients can be pumpkin, red beet, watermelon, apples, pears, oranges, citrus fruit, spinach, romana salad and cucumber, parsley and mint.

So I've decided to check out the Black List and I quite enjoy it. I'm still in the pilot episode. James Spader as always is amazing and the rest of the cast is great as well. Especially nice to see Harry Lennix again.

I've been shoveling this fennel salad in my face. It is just so damn good.

You can find the recipe here. It's in German.

I don't really have a most proud moment. But I'm actually quite happy with all the things I managed to do for my health, mental and physical, this year. I hope I can keep it up :D

Last weekend, my friend Yasmin was with me the entire weekend and I cooked and baked for her. We also crafted and talked and it was wonderfully relaxing. It kind of inspired me to make this post of dished I made recently and took pics off.


lots of pics of food )

Gosh, I'm the clumsiest person on this earth. Sometimes it feels like that. I woke up reall early this morning from a strange dream and half asleep tried to check the time and then hit my chin on the edge of the bed. It hurts. My chin is all red and swollen. It will probably turn blue. also it hurts when I laugh and smile.

So warm today and I'm wearing a dress. A dress, really. I haven't worn a dress in ages. The heat in the office is aweful. I really need air.

The last weekend was rather strange. All my plans kind of fell through, but I had already done all the hosuework on friday, which means I had plenty of time on my hands. So I started with some pilates and yummy mango and cereal and then went to the massage. I have to say that it was really really good. It was a tibetan massage. One hour. He did the whole body and had a heat light. I will definately do that again a few times to get my back tension to a good level. Even though it is expensive.

I went to the city for socks and track pants and ended up getting glasses instead. I hope those will help with the headaches. I will get them in about 2 weeks time. It was the opening of the store and so I got special prices. I also managed to finish my 20inspirations icon set way ahead of schedule. I already posted them at onlion and people seem to like them. So that is very cool.

I also caugh up on Defiance and Continuum. I forgotten how good Continuum ist. I'm sucked all the way back in.

I would like very much to be headache free for just one day. *groans*
It's starting to really piss me off. Usually the reason is my neck cramps to to sitting in front of the computer all day. I've done accupuncture at the beginning of the year and tons of sports and yoga. But I've had this headache for over a week and I feel like it is getting worse.

I've made an appointment for a massage on saturday morning which I hope wil bring some relief and after that I might have to go back to the orthopedist. I want to get a different one though. This one always tells me that there is nothing wrong...and the stuff that is can be fixed with sports.

I do sports 3 times a week though and the mucles need time to calm down so I should not do more. I just want to feel a bit better.

This day can just be over now, please. Aside from the fact, that I have the most god aweful headache behind my eyes and a queasy stomach because of the damn antibiotics, all my trains were late this morning, I had two wait 40 minutes for a subway and it was so full, that a woman kept pressing her breasts in my face. And I cannot concentrate at all today.

On top of it all I went on tumblr for a short bit to get my mind off it and got completely and horribly spoiled for Miranda.

thank god tomorrowis the last day I have to take my antibiotics though.

So I've been sick for the last few days and staying at home feeling fate, with a massive headache and a throat that hurt like hell and since yesterday night I've been coughing my lungs out and my chest is starting to hurt like hell.

The walls at my apartmentbuilding are very thin and my neighbour Dirk appearently heard me cough and made me a glass pf freshly pressed oranges. How nice is that.

I'm back from my one week mini vacation. It was fabulicious. I will write more once my Lomos return.

Last week a lady called me that a space as been freed up and I am now part of the dutch course again. I had my first lesson yesterday and it was fabulous and a lot of fun and I knew a lot more than I thought I did. I also went to pilates right after because my fitness studio is right there and it was exhausting and a bit painful but I don't have that much of a muscle ache. I've gained a bit of weight in Denmark and also haven't really done that much sports in over a month. So i'm hoping to get back into it.

The Lomographys have been taken in Amsterdam, my parents garden, dog walking in Duisburg and in Düsseldorf. I hope you enjoy.

Also I'm not sure if I've mentioned that I am rewatching Lost right now. I'm already done with season 3.

So I've been having a not so good year and have decided a while back, to implement a feel good programme. So I don't feel like crap anymore. So besides doing sports regularly, I've been thinking of going to work by bike.

However, I'm really scared of riding bikes and of traffic when riding bikes and haven't been on one in over 15 years. But to conquer my fear, I've decided to get a cheap bike to practise. So meet Sally. She is old and a little rusty, but still very pretty.
