Bearenske...

Pussman is organising a giveaway, and the beauty to be given away is this little bear...

Should I win it, I'd keep it aside for this little beauty, my godchild Renske...


I'd keep it aside till she reaches an age at which she could appreciate the beauty of a blue and yellow bear...

Bloody Mary

Look what arrived today!
Well... actually it arrived yesterday, but I wasn't home when the mailman rang my doorbell (or did something at my door). So today, just before work, I went to pick up a parcel at a local bookshop which also serves as a postalservice... And yes! It was Bloody Mary! Can't wait to start reading (coz I think it will be dead funny and heartbreaking...)

A Winter's Sunday

The city was still a mess...

In front of the appartement it looked just ugly...

At the back on the otherhand, things were a little more peaceful.

There was a broken angel...

And a sad one.

Inside, animals were being just animals.




Something for Mr. S.

A huge picture I got as a gift and a special version of Monopoly!

A little kitty asleep.

Mr. S. at work.

Then we went for a walk, and in a nearby toy shop window thingie... this oh so German lunchbox...

In the still snowwhite park...

Drinks on a boat, company garanteed.

Duckies.

Flying duckies.

Finally...

After two months kind-of-holiday-like house and dogsitting, tonight I'm going back home...
