4. Meet up with friends and spend some great time

May 9, 2012


That was something I did on time! Yeah, just because it involved lots of food, fun with friends and all those great stuff... During the second half of the vacation our "gang" got together at the librarian's house for a party. And not any party, but a PANCAKE one, with (of course) pancakes and fillings like jam, cheese, chocolate, banana, also had (nasty) Turkish coffee and pastries... We ate lots of food as you see, took a little trip to the past with some old photo albums, watched stupid Spanish series, had fun, did a bit of cosplay with all kinds of hats and clothes, made photos with the Al Bundy pose, talked about religion, tried fortune-telling on coffee (too bad I filled half of my cup with sugar and when I drank it, it was nothing else left but tones of wet sugar lol) danced with lots of bananas and other fruits and did all kinds of crazy stupid things that we usually do... Cuz we've got the moves like Jagger! (yeah, our librarian has a no-secret passion for The Rolling Stones, just look at her kitchen cabinet)

Productive week

May 7, 2012


This is a new mini month project, that I decided to blog about! *feels excited* And due to lack of other, better name, I'll just call it "Productive weeks project". Mainly, I'll try doing one or more than one creative / good / funny / beneficial things each week to make me feel better somehow. 

What it'll be about? 
It'll be about me doing productive, new things I've never tried before. 

How long will it last?
A month. From the begining till the end of May.

First week to start with was last week (01.05 - 06.05)

"A sweet lesson on patience"


You may've already seen/read this touching story somewhere, but in case you haven't, you should check it out. One real, beautiful event I stumbled upon on Tumblr today and I decided to share with you...

(A NYC Taxi driver wrote:)

I arrived at the address and honked the horn. After waiting a few minutes I honked again. Since this was going to be my last ride of my shift I thought about just driving away, but instead I put the car in park and walked up to the door and knocked.. ‘Just a minute’, answered a frail, elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her 90’s stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940’s movie.
By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets.

Американски палачинки | American pancakes

April 27, 2012

Ok, I admit, I was a bit late with cooking something on my own, so I did it few days after the Spring break... Anyway, it was just as delicious! I don't want to brag (yeah, right), but those were my best pancakes so far. American pancakes are my specialty, (in fact, they're one of the few things I like about America, along with Lana Del Rey and black & white movies) but it's the first time they've tured out to be so fluffy, round, with golden crust and honey flavor... My secret is I actually make those based on two different recipes, mixed into one! And since a friend of mine asked me for the recipe, here it is:

Inspiring people 001 : Steven Frayne (Dynamo)

April 26, 2012

Three Sundays ago I didn't believed in miracles as much as I do now.
The reason? Seeing a person walking on water down a river on TV (and a spectacle to bring the whole family together for an hour on Sundays) was quite convincing. Nooo, I didn't saw God himself on Discovery Channel... I saw a man with a divine power and a heart of a human.
A person, who can put David Copperfield, Houdini and David Blaine all together in his pocket.
Further more I read his biography and the more information I got about him, the more he earned my admiration.
Struggling with a disease, father in prison, being bullied and living in one of England's most violent neighbourhoods, he managed to rise above all and become the most significant magician of 21st century.

First one of the 100 people, who inspire me is... Steven Frayne.
