Peek Into My Life 21

-

This woman made a fuss about
a t-shirt and the visible
fold lines. "I'm not sure if it
will go away and it would be such a 
waste to leave it behind. So.
I'll take it if you change the
 price to €3 instead €4"

I work in a shop and
there is one thing that I
really can't stand out: trying to 
negotiate for a lower price on a 
already discount garment.
Like c'mon, use an iron perhaps?

September has arrived and
I've noticed that the sun is going down 
earlier  as well. School has started and
I want to wish you students a
pleasant schoolyear with good 
grades! 

A dinner party at my home with friends!

 I was sitting next to a Japanese family - attempt to understand
of what they are saying but failing.

 Rice with fish in green curry: €6,50 - tasted pretty good!

 A homemade mooncake by my aunt! Tasted very good!

    Pretty delicious photos as always :3

    I think working in a clothing/accessory store could be pretty nice - surrounded by so many beautiful things ....aawwww *o*

    -_-°...as if folding lines were little holes - did she buy it in the end?

    Oh, customers are the worst. They walk into shops or restaurants with a Queen of England mentality...

    Ahh, all of this food ... everytime. ;__; I wish food looked just as good as it does in your photos!

    Omg that store is heaven! Everything looks so pretty like a tumblr photo hahahaha and I've never had homemade mooncake before but I'm sure it tastes much better than store ones. I don't like mooncake =(

    I know what you mean about people bargaining for discounted items! Another thing I hated was when the store is suppose to be closed but a customer is taking their sweet time deciding whether to buy a 10$ top or not T_T

    i really noticed that you have a knack for sweets! :)
    you should really really start giving us sweets too!
    btw, yeah, i can't stand those who haggle too much already.. it's so not fair if something's already marked down so much. seems truly abusive. :/
    anyway, you going back to school too? :> good luck as well.

    Haggling for a discount is one thing but it is the first time I hear of haggling because of fold lines.

    Yummy yummy food. Fish with green curry. Mmmm... I absolutely love mooncakes that I term it "Mooncake Festival" instead of "Mid Autumn Festival".

DIY: Mini Whip Cream

EN Or you can call them ‘scrubbies’ but I use them to create whip cream for my crochet cakes and cupcakes! They also make great home decorations by putting them into a maison jar! Did I just inspire you to make them as a gift for your friend, mum, girlfriend..? I’ll say: go for it! NL Of ze worden ook wel ‘scrubbies’ genoemd en ze zijn bedoeld om je lichaam mee te wassen en te scrubben. Maar mijn versie is klein en dienen ze als toefjes slagroom op mijn gehaakte taartjes en cupcakes! Ook doen ze aardig als huis decoraties bijvoorbeeld in een leuke glazen pot! Ik zou zeggen: maak ze voor je vriendin, mama, GF!  Echt een leuk blij makerij c:    You need:  Cotton yarn or wool ,  crochet hook (cotton = 2 - 3 mm, wool = 3 - 4 mm) ,  scissor ,  needle       I've actually stuffed a bit of stuffing in it.    The Steps: Row 1: chain 11 Row 2: skip first stitch and start with the 2nd stitch (see picture)

DIY: Crochet banana

EN This week is officially my back-to-work week from my 6 wonderful weeks off Summer break. And like always it takes some time to adjust, to get my inner work engine warmed up again and like always take a deep breath. It’s kind of the same feeling going back to school but instead of school it’s work. Yay. Since it’s my first work week and it’s first of September why not kick it off with a DIY post. You know to keep our mind working! And this time I take you guys through another fruity crochet tutorial where this time it’s all about the bananas! Happy bunch of bananas because a banana provides good energy to our body, anti-stress and of course is a good snack for every monkeyheads like us! Like always I tend to keep it simple and this banana crochet is very novice, I promise. And if not you can always leave a comment or a mail for questioning. Please try it out!    NL Deze week is mijn eerste werk week weer begonnen na een heerli

DIY: Crochet Miniature Cinnamon Rolls

EN It’s holidays and Liberation Days in The Netherlands and with all these delicious day offs, I’ve finally got more time to do my yarn works. And yes sleeping in late is also great. But mostly I’ve been really productive with my yarn works, whereas the most recent ones - the puff pastry/Danish I have received a fair amount of likes and sweet comments on my social media. Thank you! Being productive means also I take effort and time in perfecting my yarn works but not too hard to make luckily! Especially the snail rolls (cinnamon rolls/pain aux raisin) are really easy and fun to make. And because sharing is caring, I’m sharing you my little secret of making these crochet cinnamon rolls!    NL Heerlijk de meivakantie met al die vrije dagen kan ik lekker ongestoord op mijn haak werkjes storten. En natuurlijk ook heerlijk uitslapen hoort erbij maar de laatste tijd ben ik super productief geweest met haken. Mijn meest recente werkjes - het bladerdeeg/broodjes/Da
