...and my 100 post is about a tea/coffee cup

I found him all by himself, no set he belonged to and I took it. He is pretty and delicate and white and precious. I love him. I use it at least twice a day.

Friday thrifts

I spent a fair amount of money on these things that I don't necessarily need. I didn't even intended to, but I ended up at a couple of thrift shops on Friday and now I have these.
The clothes were cheap and I figured I could use some good cotton around the house, even if I wasn't going to wear them. The striped shirt on the right reminded me of these Ikea tea towels, but mine are going to be more colorful. Underneath that are two shirts for casings just perfect for a couple of pillows we found here at our new place.

The white coffee cups are great and they're kind of a combination between these two.

I decided I want a shelve (or could be two) to showcase these and I'm hoping we'll take a trip this weekend to a couple of hardware stores and see what we can find. I don't care if the owner wouldn't want us to drill a few holes in his walls. Really don't. I have limited space for my kitchen ware as it is.

A quick rerun of the past weekend

 Before this next one goes by.

It was one good weekend. 

Biking is the best, we think, and plus it's amazing how quick you can get from one place to another. I finally got lights for my bike so I can travel in the evening. They were fairly cheap and I can cut them off my list of things to purchase for my bike. Next off, new brakes and then a good front basket (metal) preferably.

the week

 {spinach}

 {pizza dough}

 {parmesan - prepared for broccoli fritters}

{radishes}

 {vinaigrette - salt,pepper, vinegar, mustard, comb of regular oil and olive oil}

 {not how I expected, but I'm fine with it}

 {juice}

 {no more}

 {shoe sale, so I'm good for spring}

 {love this little plate - perfect for snacks}

 {broccoli batter}

{too big, maybe}

It's kind of lame, cause I always post about stuff from around the house, which probably makes me seem like a poor housewife but it feels like such a drag to carry my camera with me everywhere, and more so to have to fish my phone out of my pocket and take pictures. It's hard, but maybe I'll make an effort...

We're heading home for the weekend so I'm looking forward to that. Should be fun.

Above, two of the things I made for dinner this week. Pizza, which we ate two days in a row, but it was still good, and this recipe, cause I had parmesan on hand. Debs' fritters look so much better than mine.

Scroll down on this page, to see Rachels' beautiful napkins, the ones that inspired my pathetic four above. I wasn't aiming for perfect results(but maybe I should have?), so it's fine.

{tools}

 I bought the cutting tools on the right, especially for projects like this. R uses/ed them at lino cut, at school. It's all such fun, but I was cheap and didn't want to spend 50 ron on a proper sheet of lino, the kind that's made especially for this thing. So I bought linoleum from a hardware store and the cutting tools don't work at all on it, aka it's hard and inefficient. So I used scissors and a cutter and cut out the letters and then glued them on bits of wood. So you really need to buy proper sheets, especially if doing, lets say, something like this.

Bits from the week

 This week was good, I've been working on an essay for school, so there was a lot of reading. I also finished a book on my nook and got a bunch of new ones, but I'll try to finish off what I already started.I love reading.

The weather's been kind of a downer, and I'm looking forward to some warm days so I can ride my bike again...
I saw the first five episodes of Girls season 3 and I enjoyed them thoroughly. It's so good, they are doing such a great job, and it seems so real, like it would definitely be like that in real life. I feel them.:D. This tumblr, I love.
Also I've watched a bunch of movies: Somebody up there likes me(2012)/Blowup(1966)/
Bad grandpa(2013)/Thor-The dark world(2013) + loads of The Office episodes and some Will and Grace episodes here and there. I know, it's quite a selection...

Today is Vs' and we got each other gifts and we are going out for dinner, so I'm looking forward to that, although I have some things I need to prepare for tonight. Have a good weekend.

P.S.
this is fun

Things are fine, I'm pretty busy with work for school these days. Going to school by foot feels like suck a drag but it's kind of the only exercise I get, so I must. Part of why the school walk is a drag is the weather. It is cold and I also hate having to wear tons of clothes while out. So staying in bed, in a t shirt and shorts when I can, seems like heaven.

It's been quiet around the house, we're spending lots of time with the cat.
I want to bake some cupcakes and read all day long, but sadly I have school stuff to take care off.
