FREEDOM



GYPSY WAGONS ARE MY DREAM

I remember when I was a small girl I used to draw gypsy wagons and always said to people that I one day would live in one...nowadays I still dream about it and I admire the gypsy culture a lot!


(my drawings weir something like this one above)
 

Here in Portugal you can still find some nomad gypsy´s, they haven´t got the wagon but travel around with a donkey or mule pulling a cart load.

It is magnific to see the whole gypsy family on top of the cart load with all there belonings!

ALMOST CHRISTMAS

It´s almost Christmas and I even haven´t got a Christmas tree! It is because I´m gonna spend Christmas with my love and his family, so at my home no Christmas ornaments.

But here are some funny pictures from Christmas trees and other stuff...

BUSY BUSY

 Saturday I gave a Christmas decoration workshop and it was a big succes! I had 8 students, and the oldest student was 85 years old! She was so sweet, always saying to me she wasn´t able to make the decoration, but in the end she did it with a lot of fun. It was my first time I gave a workshop, I loved it and my students loved it to.

While we had a little pause, we ate some lovely carrot cake and drank a cup of tea.

At the same time I´ve got a Christmas fair going on for ten whole days! It has been a lot of fun, beeing the youngest of the ladies selling crochet and jewelry.

 

 

 

Thank you so much Solange, Ana, Amanda, Marcelina, Maggie, Daniela, Isabel and D. Maria.

And a very special thanks to tea house Óchálá!

PAINTING GIVES ME PEACE

Here are two paintings I painted. The first one I just finished and is the Christmas present for my boyfriend, (I just hope he doesn´t come here to my blog! But I don´t think so, he´s not a internet freak like me) and the second one I already painted a while ago.

One day I would love to expose them and I know just the perfect place where to do it. But I have got to make some more for the exposition.

I painted them with aquarelle painting and used the best painting brush ever! A Pentel aquabrush, it has a water recevoir and it paints like heaven!

 



TYPICAL DUTCH APPLE PIE

I still have so many apples that I picked in France, so today I made two apple pies. I wanted to try something new, so in the smaller one I added walnuts. They are delicious with a cup of ginger, jasmin and honey tea! hhhmmm I love it!

If you want the reciepe, just send me a message and I´ll tell you my granny´s reciepe.
