Her sweater
Monday 16 July 2007 at 12:28 pmShe made it into a sweater, not for him but for herself. And (almost) everytime i'm in their house, instead of nicking his' i'm 'living' in hers. I must admit that it feels a bit weird when i start to think of it, but it actually is really comfy. Luckily she doesn't mind...
Intentions
Sunday 15 July 2007 at 12:15 pm I'm quite keen on the ideas about the memory of water, as most of you probably know. It might actually explain why homoeopathy works (although i'm still sceptical about it). So some people in Wales did their own experiment. If thoughts can do this to a bean, imagen what they can do to us...Herbal RCT's
Friday 13 July 2007 at 12:01 pm Maybe not the best place to put this, but just for the ones of us who still doubt the quality of herbal RCT's... (okay, i admit, this is just one study...)A new project
Thursday 12 July 2007 at 10:13 pmNormally our projects only include the making of clothes, but recently we've started something new: a business. Our main focus:
This brand of teas is particularly manufactured for the "Survival of the States". The gift-pack contains 10 teas, for several different types of problems one can encounter... This website might be a nice place to start our market research: Anybody interested?
Irradiating
Friday 06 July 2007 at 8:07 pm Through the years, I've seen her happy and I've seen her sad. We've danced together, studied together, shopped and sewed together. But I have never, not in all these years, seen her irradiating like tonight. Not even last night, when we baked four-and-a-half langevingertaarten (and drank stroh 80 & vieux). She's creating fresh herbal teas...SAB
Thursday 05 July 2007 at 09:16 am Okay, i'm definitely avoiding my studies at the mo... but i found this really intersting text that i wrote when Queck and i were thinking of starting a blog back in September (!). Thought i had to share this with you guys *smile*. An update on how i've managed to survive my first year will follow shortly... Lees verderSocialising
Wednesday 04 July 2007 at 10:55 pm It's amazing how i can transform a marvellously clean room into a mess within 3 days (or less), while on the other hand i have a slight OCD regarding cleaning the workunit, hob and bathroom. They had already cleaned the whole house before i arrived, except for the hob... I did manage to control myself for the passed 3 days, but today i 'accidently' spilled something on the hob --> therefore i had to clean it. We made it a nice hour of spending some time together.Shocked
Wednesday 04 July 2007 at 9:09 pmUneasily, I sat down in the chair she appointed for me and followed her with my eyes. Slowly, in uncomfortable shocks, I was elevated. When I reached the appropriate level, she started with a simple question, but I didn’t know what she could do for me. It has been almost six months, and now it was truly hopeless and unmanageable. So I summed up a couple (Dutch style) of demands: it should be practical (especially at work), it should be feminine (not too short), it should be fitting for my character (not too old-fashioned or lady-like), it should be low maintenance (I don’t like much fuzz in the morning) and it could be a bit more loose around my face.
And now I’ve got a fringe…
