Dry Cleaning

7/31/2015

0 Comments

 
Of your hair. Actually, I will be talking about dry shampoos. You know, the ones that are recommended for when you go to hospital or camping (or you live in Sofia during профилактика на водата). I tried to get one while I was pregnant, but never found a place that sells them in Austria. So I forgot about it. Until the other day, when I managed to pour 1/3 bottle of argan oil on my head right after I'd showered. All I could think of was the movie that featured a beauty pageant with tough competitors who put oil in the hair spray bottles and loyal friends who neutralized it with baby powder. That was it, I needed a dry shampoo. In case you need one too, here the recipe:
Picture
Otherwise, I am marking success: I got to level 287 of Candy Crush Soda Saga, survived my weekly HIIT without fainting (that's always a feat!), made a salad from my home-grown tomatoes. More importantly, I'm in the process of catching up on my book reading. 

I know, it sounds dry. I will shampoo it for next week :) Since I don't have a photo of a cute kitten, I will just show you a photo of my tomatoes. You have a lovely weekend!

Let Your Work Make a Statement

After a week of fighting with non-existing internet connection I can finally post my project. It's something that requires as much patience as dealing with Austrian providers, but satisfaction is guaranteed in the end. So here it is, my statement necklace. It doesn't state that I didn't sleep much this week, partially because of the heat, and partially because I established a non-diaper policy at home (yay for my kids!). It doesn't state that I killed my rosemary, but my tomatoes are doing awesome. It doesn't state that I am about to get myself a bubble gun as a (one of the) goodbye present (s) from my former colleagues. And that I am excited about my new job, starting tomorrow. What it does state is: it's summer, enjoy it!

Run Simple (slogan borrowed from SAP)

Yes, I have mentioned, I am in this mind-numbing SAP training for Grants and Projects, compared to which my Chinese test looks like a piece of cake. So, before my brain melts, I decided to melt something else. The project for this week, ladies and gentleman! A colorful bowl for all those summer parties:

And keep your fingers crossed, first exam is tomorrow :)

Love In An Elevator? No, Living In Front Of A Ventilator.

It's getting hot in here. But don't take off all your clothes. Unless, like me, you decide to bake when it's 40 degrees in  your kitchen. Celsius, that is. I made some (ok, several) clafoutis these days, trying to perfect my "recipe". Fact is, I don't work well with recipes, so I just eye it. And then- test it. Once I am ready testing, I can even recommend it in my Cook Without A Book section. In the meantime, feel free to test with me:

Oh, and did you wonder what happened to my sorry painting attempt. Well, I bought some more paint and a bigger brush, ignored all requests for what I should be painting, and there it is, hanging on the terrace:
Picture
So much from me, back to my SAP TTT. Until next week, stay inspired!

Updates, updates! Fresh updates, only here :D. I have been studying for a Chinese exam and sitting in long day SAP workshops, I got a new job not connected to either of above, I tested home made honey lollipops
Picture
and some (more!) travel games: Batanimo and 100 игри за деца на път (can highly recommend, and I'm not affiliate).

I am fighting some bugs on my herbs, but my cherry tomatoes are looking good.
Picture
And, I got a new cool project for you, dedicated to all those who decided to quit sugar.
Picture
On that note, I am off to prepare for a barbecue-abundant weekend. Or for another SAP exercise, toddler ear infection, laundry load... whichever comes first. Until next week!
