Hello Darlings,

And be nice about my belly

Cake pop recipe
Cake pops zijn so incredibly cute and of course very tasty. Not very healthy but that’s ok because they make you happy.
I recently served them at a tea party I organised and they were a great succes!

Sugar cravings, energy levels and belly fat
Yesterday I sort of slipped in a comment about wanting to lose weight. It is not necessarily so that I find myself a fatso and it is not just about losing weight, it is just as much (if not more) anout feeling healthy and energetic. Feeling tired all the time is just ‘so last season’! With summer slowly approaching I want to at least feel bouncy enough to do stuff.
The thing with me feeling tired is that I go for the quick fix of eating humongous amounts of sugary foods (cookies, cake, ice cream with cookies and cake flavour, chocolate and basically anything else as long as it contains sugar). Of course I always end up feeling more tired and thus eating more sugar, etc. Also, once I started to indulge, I almost always tell myself that it doesn’t matter anymore, I already broke my healthy habits so there’s no point in trying to fix things for today, I’ll work out and eat healthy tomorrow. Same thing every day.

OOTD – Nonchalance
I just started my day with oatmeal and a big mug of green tea, just to compromise for my terrible ice cream abusal this weekend. Man, I just can’t contain myself when I have “those days”. I decided to not eat (or drink) any sugar this week and see if I can even stretch it to a month. My trip to Portugal is coming up and I could do with a few less pounds.
More on that tomorrow. Here’s my outfit:
This is my favourite sweater because it is so comfy, combined with my favourite treggings (mega comfy too) and my favourite shoes. Thank heavens they get along just fine!
The sweater is from Vero Moda and cost me 15 euros, the pants are from HEMA (a Dutch department store) and cost me 20 euros and the shoes were bought in Spain by my husband and are sort of brandless but I know they were really cheap as well. So this is a very budget friendly outfit. Read more

Meet Mr. Marisu
Such a sweetheart, such a nerd and such a genius.
My husband Jan: 35 years old. I’ve known him my whole life, literally. We were born in the same street, then both our families moved and we ended up in the same street again, two houses between ours’. Obviously I didn’t like him then, he is eight years my senior and he treated me like I was a baby (‘I got your nose!’, come on, I was five already). When he was 18 he went away to study in another city and stayed there 12 years (never bothered to get his degree but did get a lot of friends).

DIY – Pink sparkle cap toe Dr. Martens
I’ve had these Dr. Martens boots since I was 13 so that’s a century a few years back. And after all these years I only ever wear for gardening or painting and such, so I decided it was time to give them a makeover, so I would actually wear them out again. So I took out some nail polish and just painted away.
