N°2

I roasted the chicken,added the tomato farrago and the cheese.

And now I proudly present the protagonist: the Tortilla wraps!
I filled them with the chicken and rolled them up.
And this is the miserable result: Could there be a more delicious looking tortilla? YES.
This is what I was wearing while cooking. I just wear this long dress in the house and in the garden because it shows too much but is SO comfy to wear when it's about 36°C.
Despite the non-Happy-Enchiladas-End(I couldn't eat more than one half because while cooking I ate SO much cheese) this was a pretty evening.
After the meal I got out and went to the fields where the sun was setting and I took photos both with my good,ol' digital camera as well as with my new,old Canon I got on the flea market for 7 bucks.Then I had a coffee to reduce the ugly feeling of having eaten too much.And now I am sitting here listening to Coco Rosie.
The summertime is a much better time than I'd expected. Every morning I go out to walk on the morning dew all over the grass with bare feet. It's a little cold but it touches every sense.

N° 1

I just made my first Enchiladas,I have never tried them before,but when I saw an Enchilada Kit at the supermarket I just had to have it.
I've made them like so:
Chicken cutting,cheese grating,putting tomato sauce,spice mix and water in a bowl.

Hejjj,
I am back from London(well,since Monday actually but because of a bad cough I got from the ventilator I felt like writing and photographing today for the first time since then).
While writing the words 'bad' and 'cough' I remembered this song and I'd like to share it with you:


Well,where to start.
London is big,ohh so big and fast and loud.Personally I think,to patronize my oh so sacrosanct rule of slowness,that when you're going through the streets of London(or any other big city,or...any city at all) you should listen to calm music and walk slow and take photos and explore.You ought to go against the fastness.I have been there with a friend and she was running,running all the time and I had no time to think.That's why I barely remember details and there were no special,magical moments.I wish I'd been on my own.There was no time to read,to listen to music(I even created a new playlist with songs that were supposed to remind me of London later) or to take photos except for one night when we sat down at the Piccadilly Circus.
I only found two dresses,a bikini top and two tights.(My friend followed me everywhere,e-ve-ry-where when we were in a shop or at one of the 6 markets we visited.And let me tell you I can't stand it.When I looked at a dress in the 'Absolut Vintage' shop we visited she laughed but I actually liked it but then I didn't dare to pick it because I couldn't stand her looks.This happened several times.)
Thus,it's all been a bit disappointing and then I've had this bad cough and I thought it were my tonsils and I was crying all day yesterday,partly because of the pain but mostly for no specific reason.It was such a gruesome day-
But I am so happy to be back.
I also found two belts and a polaroid camera(now I found out that the films for those cameras are exorbitant).
I stole my mama's trench coat and wore one of the new dresses for flea market.You can see the Polaroid as well.And I'm wearing my beloved 'LOVE THE PLANET' bag from Dublin which me and my best friend bought there.
This is the new belt from today and one of the dresses from London.
The other London dress.I avoided the typical floral prints as every single body was wearing them in London.I also have to say I barely saw people wearing inspiring things.Most of them wore high heels which mostly doesn't look very modest or their faces were not friendly or other things.


Well,now I'm off buying film for my new camera and then I'm forced to see the German Worldcup match tonight.Ohhh how thrilling...not.
How good to be back and see all the pretty outfits you wore and things you've experienced.
Adieu !

I just wanted to say goodbye for the next 6 days.
I will take a lot of photos and buy mountains of new clothes,I am so excited about what I'll come back with!
Hope you all will be having a jolly good week and I'm excited to see what you've been wearing in the meantime.
I'm off to London now with a plane.(Ok,that sounds ridiculous after my post about saving the environment and therefore trying to reduce....CO2-emissions! I....I....I can't help it,it was a present.....err....)
Goodbye and enjoy the nature !

I just saw a sort of documentation on my favorite and one of the only two channels I'm watching 'ARTE' . Its name was 'I buy/(I'm buying?),therefore I am'. It was about world-wide disparities and how much we consume and that if everybody on this world would be consuming as much as an north American we would need a five times bigger planet and how much plastic and trash there is and that noone knows where to put it and some of the commentators said that in their opinion the apocalypse has already begun.I thought about thrifting and that it might be very good for the environment.No little,poor children in Bangladesh are sewing my H&M-clothes and no CO2-emissions because there's no plane that brings the clothes to Bangladesh and back to Germany(or wherever else). I know-if we don't buy our clothes there the children and families don't even get this small amount of money they're getting because they have this poor work but we can't keep on doing this.We can not go on repressing poor countries.Other ways need to be found.I don't see the problem.There is an overabundance of food and many other things in the industrial countries while people from the less and least developed countries are starving.I will try my best and avoid buying new clothes from now on.So you need to excuse me buying this H&m dress and sort of bra today...before I saw this film !! Some things you don't get at the flea market but I'll be going again tomorrow.I found two bras without straps for just 5 bucks and I was always looking for this kind of a bra and they even fit! Couldn't believe my luck.
A goodnight to everyone !

Just a short question for my abiding commentators:
Do you have to enter a word before you can post a comment on my blog?
End of question.
So,prom is over.
It was not a night of extraordinary happenings but it was fine.We danced until they turned the light on,telling us indirectly but authoritative that the party is over and we have to GO.
The best thing about having finished school is by far that in 3 days me and my cousin will be going to.......LONDON! Man,London is such an impressive city.It is fast,though. But there are huuge vintage markets and little shops and lovely hullabaloo at every corner and remarkable,exotic food.
My dear best friend and I. We love trees.
The girly-girls.Ah,I'm pretty unconfident with my hair and all that now that I see us by comparison.
And now I'm off changing € into pounds !
