I’m consistently getting up at 6:15 – hope this doesn’t change in the winter

I’m working out and trying to lose weight, so I already feel a bit better

Somehow I’m managing to do this!

I’m totoally doing this!

My son wants to learn to sail! Yippee, now we can learn together

It’s coming off slow and steady…

I repainted it in retro colors. Yay!

Walls and cupboards a blue-grey, doors, windows and cupboard doors a dark turquoise. Paint handles white, and lacquer red accents.

according to my son

I probably knit four or five pairs a year, inbetween other projects

In no particular order:

Macaroni and cheese (from scratch, not the blue box)
Pork Chops with Fried Apples
Veggie Stir-Fry
Mushroom Risotto
Vegetarian Meatloaf
Chicken with peanuts and cilantro
Pasta Primavera
Spanikopita
Lasagne
Pommes Dauphinoise

and many more…

and I would definitely do this again, once my son is grown

and very liberating

Make sure you add a big splash of Cointreau or Grand Marnier

but it’s very expensive! Now I think I’ll stick to curtains

Have a big salad every day. When it’s hot make fresh fruit smoothies. Add veggies to pasta. Stuff portabello mushrooms.

Though I wonder if I will feel the same when I’m 80

until I became a single mother and a steady salary became a priority

I think it would be so cool to live on water and in a city both at the same time

doing this but how else could you find the relationship that will sustain you till old age?
