This time, the mailman didn't brought a package for me..

It was a package for the boyfriend!

From me!

Actually I don't listen to the radio very often. But since I need to drive for more than an hour each day MNM became my partner in crime on the road..

So I heard about that competition to win an awesome book about cycling.. and food!

And I immediately thought: hah, cycling and good food.. that's the definition of my boyfriend's life!

So I gave it a try to win it as a present for my boyfriend..

But I didn't got any response..

Till I saw my boyfriend's smiling face when he entered the house with his present!

Very nice so far!

But you ain't seen nothing yet!

Believe me!

The inside is even better than the outside! (yeah, that's still possible!) 

Awesome dishes

combined with

Awesome cyclists

Makes awesome articles and so also an awesome book!

Didn't had the time to read it yet but it looks VERY promising!

Washed my hair and used another Deauty-product!

Redken Full Effect 04 Nourishing Mousse.

It's a silky mousse that feels very light and it isn't sticky at all! -hooray for that!-

My hair feels lighter but I don't really see the extra volume it promises..

Maybe because my hair is quite voluminous on it's own..

What I love about the two hairproducts in the Deauty-box is the fact they make the curls in my hair a little more curlier than my natural curls. And they make my hair look healthy and shiny!

The result:

Another crappy picture. Taken by my boyfriend (with his Blackberry Playbook) on September the 29th.

And today was the last day we could visit Lannoo's yearly bookmarket!

- Lannoo is a publisher from the region where I was born -

I bought this one: Thumbs and fingers full of chocolate (for €9)

With a lot of easy chocolate recipes!

They look so delicious! I can't wait till we're moving in our own house to try to make those little treasures!

And this was really a bargain!

More than 290 pages with stunning black and white photos.

Merckx, a living legend! I though it might be a nice book to remember some moments of the last year..

because I love doing that..

and there's still a lot of work in our own house!!!

thanks mommy!

I just can't resist it..

I need to blog it!

Last sunday (22th of January) we went to Velofollies in Kortrijk..

what else can I say.. bikes bikes bikes.. okay, and bike stuff..

bu-hut! I found a perfect present for my boyfriend's birthday!

at first I wanted to give him a tablet for his birthday..

He would be so happy! but you know, it's really expensive..

and I'm really into apple.. and that's way too expensive to buy now..

especially because of the house and stuff like that..

Anyway. He'll get a tablet for sure but not now, we can't afford it.

So here it comes!

the present I bought at Velofollies:

two books!

two awesome books!

written and illustrated by awesome people!

and also signed by those awesome people!

Karl Vannieuwkerke himself signed his book "the sportdevil" especially with birthdaywishes to my boyfriend ! He's just awe-some!

Good Night !

oh boy!

If I already had a little time I only felt like sleeping immediately!

so but here I am again!

a lot to tell.. but again.. not enough power left to do a whole story of what happened this last month..

well, some things about the couple of last days I would want to share!

I work almost 8months @Zara and already had to go on training to another Zara! great opportunity, but a little scary! all about the new cash desk system! great!

Oh boy! and yesterday I bought to awesome books @Lannoo! one about cupcakes (was 4,50€ instead of 24,95€) and the other about interior design (was 9€ instead of 29,95€) -> brandnew! no second hand or something like that :)

my sister already tried the chocolate cupcakes! and they are really terrific!!

oh and my boy left last thursday night :( to denmark! for the world championships)

and he won't be back soon.. still have to wait till monday evening 26th of september :(

but that date is close to the date when we'll have the key of our very own little house :)))

Oh, but he's just online! gotta talk to him!
