Random facts about Sophie

The last Random facts about Sophie were back in October and I feel like talking about them again...

I still have two of the cakes I made for "THE  event" in my freezer... And we really gave some cakes away... We passed some over to our local sports club who needes cakes for an event and as quite a few of their people were helping us with our event we decided to help them too. And my sister took a whole lot of cake to work, but there are still some left over which we should eventually eat...
But baking cake is more interessting than defrosting them...

I eventually moved my Itunes over to the new laptop. But I still don't like the app screen.

The knitting/stitching events with my friends was really nice with a lot of crafting, eating, booze and chats. Thanks C for walking back to the house at least five times to get some more gin&tonic while we had the campfire.
Although I came quite far with my christmas picture that weekend I gave up on it afterwards as I couldn't see it anymore and knew that I would never hang it.

I still look for pictures for my living room. Some days ago I said to somebody that I actually feel like framing some nice liberty print fabric. And guess what I got for Christmas from my bestie? Liberty print patchwork fabric! <3 

I think I reached a point where I have to move on in some way and am currently looking for a new job.

Only three more months till I'll get a new kitchen and bathroom. I'm moving in with my parents for this time and by mid June I will hopefully be back in a nice "new" flat.

My Mum told me last week: "We're moving." I asked her if Dad knows about it and she said yes. So I asked if he agrees... No.... She knows of somebody who will be moving in September and really likes that flat and since the landlord is her employer chance to get the flat are almost 100%. But Dad doesn't want to move - yet - as this means decluttering his life...

My sister is turning a van into a caravan with help of my Dad. She asked me last week if I would come on a camping holiday with her when the caravan is finished. Of course I said yes and now we're already discussing how we can have our holiday ritual in a camper. When we go on holiday together we normally buy carrots and a dip on our way back to the hotel and then watch a strange movie on the telly and eat carrots. And before we leave the room for breakfast we normally have a cookie. We're living life on the edge :-)

Sophies week

Hello everyone! *imitating Mirandas voice*

Long time not seen. How are you? Back in October and November life has been very busy due to "THE event" which went very well and which I enjoyed. But afterwards I was just in the mood for some days of laziness, followed by a little holiday in Bath. And then life went on and I kind of lost track with blogging. But now I feel like I want to blog again every now and then and already restarted my (German) book blog back in January.

So here goes another Sophies week, though without pictures - once more.

*Film/series* Nothing yet and I don't think I'll watch something tonight.
*Book* "The turning point" - Judith Lennox
*Song* "Baby ride easy" - Johnny Cash & June Carter Cash. "It's a real good feeling" - Peter Kent.
*Craft* Finished the first wrist warmer. Started the second wrist warmer. Tree with paper leaves. "Birthday in a can" for a friend.
*Food* Brunch. Homemade bread. Soup. Pasta. Muffin. Chocolate. Cinnamon roll. Banana-chocolate crumble. Baked potato.
*Drink* Tea. Tea. Tea
*Done* Met my bestie for brunch and a late Christmas celebration and an early "anniversary" celebration. Went shopping for presents. Cuddled with my favourite little man, L (4 months) Baked. Made holiday plans with my sister. Been tired and had a very long nap today. Rediscovered my favourite hairdo and feel much better about my hair now.
*Met* My bestie and her boyfriend. My parents. Some knitting friends including little L.
*Bought* Lush Skindrink. Henna. Blueberry shower gel from The Body Shop. Some presents. Tulips.

*Thought* That there is actually nothing to be sad about. That am glad my sister takes it relatively easy that her boyfriend moved out.
