apple drink

10 October 2011

If you have older apples, or the ones they don't taste as nice ( any type, it doesn't really matter)
1. Peel, cut apples
2. add cinnamon stick or cinnamon sugar ( or just brown sugar), clove (you don't have to)
3. add water
4. boil for 5-10 min, just for apples to soften
5. serve warm

I put too much clove there yesterday so it was tiny bit bitter, just few is enough. Sugar is optional too, I have sweet tooth so I like it that way but you can always add sugar later. It's incredibly easy but warm, sweet and very light.

One more thing for today. This video, I find it very inspiring.

have a good day!

7 October 2011

Probably a year later then everyone else I finally joined Pinterest, and oh it is very time consuming. In a

good way. With this I seem to be increasingly more and more interested in photos of kittens. We

had this conversation with M. few times now, he doesn't seem to be bothered, he is more of a dog lover

but I love cats. I like their independence, personalities and probably a bit the low maintenance

as well. But when you see a photo like this, who wouldn't? The only problem is when we go away...

We often go for a week or two weeks holiday, more visiting my family ( living in another country) and

I feel it might be a bit unfair to leave it behind. We not that friendly with our neighbours and I think

that asking friends for longer time or more often would be too much. What do you think? have you got

any pets? ......but look at those eyes:)

gift voucher

3

There are now gift vouchers available in my shop at Not On The High Street. Soon also in Bigcartel and Etsy shop. To simplify things I decided to do two types for either small or large size pictures. They would be perfect for last minute presents (Christmas, Valentines, birthdays) or if you not sure with choice of colour or personalisation (wedding presents) just buy a voucher in value of small or large picture and the happy couple can choose themselves. ......

I always dreamt about place like this. Gallery, caffe, terrace...All very laid back, elegant but stylish. I juts love so many little details in these photos. Half painted furniture, magazines tied together with strings, paintings, Thonet chairs ...and the terrace! (white circle on the little photo with a cyclist)...Maybe one day, but for now enjoy these photos from this caffe in Zagreb.

my (hotel) (bed) room

28 September 2011

I finished decorating our bedroom last week. After having bare walls for 4 months I decided that in the end I just can't live with the raw industrial look, and although I love it on photos and in magazines I find it to hard to live with. And I'm not even talking about M. who is incredibly conventional when it comes to decorating. As I love staying in hotel rooms, I wanted to do one for myself. Darker, cosy and welcoming. My thoughts were : black wall, large linen headboard, big curtains...In the end I tried to work with things we already had, armchair from the top floor, rug from downstairs etc. Painted wall, wallpapered another, black blinds, linen curtains, couple cushions....I have only one little dislike about the room and that's the radiator, which I think buy cover for ....What do you think?
