Breathing in Hong Kong

-
Days are getting shorter, leaves are starting to fall from the trees
and my legs are getting wrapped up again in leggings and tights.
Outside it is raining like cat and dogs. Weather like this makes
you want to tuck yourself in with a great book, watch movies
 and series with a nice cup mug of tea.

For myself, I'm looking back in my photo's of my
holiday in Hong Kong this summer, where nostalgia kicks
in this point. I miss my family and the food the most.

(And thanks for the sweet encouraging comments you guys!!)

Crazy delicious looking cake! 
I've purchased a lottery ticket with horse racing, hoping to win the jackpot. Didn't win, boohoooo

An amáááázing mall with topbrands in outlet. 

 Looks like mold but its actually a delicious greenbean butter bread! 

This is what I ate on my first day in Hong Kong. For those who never been to HK, I totally recommend the 'milktea in Hong Kong style' its so good! 

Of course its normal to wear an Arale Norimaki hat.

    I loved the description on top of this post! It could be in a poetry book! Loved it soooooo much. It made me feel good and somehow I didn't mind anymore that it's becoming autumn! Besides that I loved the pictures (I still love) and it's always fun to look back at journeys and holidays spend wonderfully ^-^

    The cakes look so good! Did you get a chance to try them? I love the presentation of food in Asia. I second the notion that hong kong milk tea is a must try, I have it here regularly too but it's sooo good in hk too. Whats the rose jelly looking thing? Is it jello? I actually really miss being able to get ice milk tea at mcdonalds everywhere >< Oh citygate malls! I went there too, did you go on the way to the big buddha?

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!

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
