"Ik ren als een paard naar het licht van het noorden. Hij noemt me Lilith en rent als een ruiter. Mijn tenen voelde ik al een tijd niet meer, maar de snijdende kou van die dag maakte het vuur en de koffie die ons te wachten stonden, des te beter."

A girl dipped her icecream in her hot chocolate while her parents played the games she wasn't interested in.

"Art." They put a large white stone on the table and the father looked annoyed. It looked like a head, but not like his.

Walking all the way backwards, just to not lose sight of the clouds, which kept changing.

There is a game we would play, you hold somebody by their hand and they close their eyes, then you make sure they will have an interesting view and let them open their eyes for a split second. Taking a picture with your eyes.

I do this for myself when I want to remember moments forever. They are more powerful than any real image could ever be.

When the sky shows the world her most beautiful colours, it feels a bit like nature is playing this game with us. Just a split second. Before you know it, it's dark again. But I can still recall the most beautiful skies in my mind.

The song of this post is Le petit Chevalier - Nico

Je suis le petit chevalier,
avec le ciel dessus mes yeux,
je ne peux pas me effrayer.

Je suis le petit chevalier,
avec la terre dessous mes pieds
J'irai te visiter
J'irai te visiter

(I am the little knight, with the sky above my eyes, I cannot be frightened,
I am the little knight, with the earth under my feet, I will come to visit you, I will come to visit you)

German easters are slightly different than the Dutch ones. Everyone seems to have left town for familyweekends with big meals and presents and I dont know what. Meanwhile, Hamburg is busy covering herself with a blanket of snow.
So my weekend will be spent inside with a lot of coffee, fellow lonely souls, tulpen aus Amsterdam, pancakes and some good books. Maybe not very German, but enjoyable nonetheless.
Frohe Ostern!

I read about summer of self love today and would like to try this too. As a personal start today, here is some food that I enjoyed the past few months. I enjoyed it so much it had to be captured on film.
[lunch with sanne, delicious cookies given to me by Jo, tomatosoup and capuccino in london, supernice vegan food with/by martin]

Food in different countries is always a bit more special because it's different. This is what excited me in England.

Tea in the cutest teahouse where they set a timer for when the tea was ready! that was some serious excitement. // Jo made this delicious ricecrispymarshmellowchocolatedelight with my name on it! Which is one of the sweetest things on earth (doublemeaning with sweet! haha). // late night snack with raspberries and Jo's homemade FlapJacks and custard // Valentine's day icecream, with sparkles in your mouth. It was very good // the biggest apple I'd ever seen.

There were three days when I was in England with Jo and those were very happy days because we did very nice things and Jo is a lovely lovely person and we got matching bracelets and saw Sherlock Holmes and Anselm Kiefer and did more nice things of which you will eventually maybe see pictures. If you can't wait, you can also click on Jo's name and see her pictures on her blog (but you are warned because I am very good at looking silly).
