London

Two weeks ago I've been to London and it was an amazing trip! With lots of inspiriring shops, neighbourhoods and people.....

Paris

This weekend I've been to Paris and it was great!

We had lunch at Rose Bakery, an amazing little restaurant with all freshly made yummie products. It was probably the most delicious lunch I've ever had! :)

I had a cheese scone with scrambled eggs, a small tomato salad and a small green salad. For desert, my mum and I shared the most delicious carrot cake and lemoncake.

This is the vieuw from the roof of the Lafayette warehouse, it was so beatiful! Because it was snowing, everything looks so grey ;)

The beautiful inside of the Galerie Lafayette!!

This is one of the windows of the most beautiful delicatessen (I hope I spelled it right ;)) shop, I have ever seen. A real paradise for the true foodie like me :D It is called Fauchon and you can find it at the Place Madeleine.

And, last but not least: this absolutely yummie crepe au sucre...

Love,

Emma

tea time

A couple of weeks ago I it was my birthday, a good reason for a party!! So, I gave a hightea-party for all my friends. I thought it looked so perfect, it was definately worth showing!! :D I made tiny cheesecakes, carrot muffins with a creamy lemon glaze, chocolate cookies, brownies, scones with home-made clotted cream and jam, salmon sandwiches, blt sandwiches and cheesecups.

If you like it I will put some of my recepies on my blog, so you can enjoy these wonderfull and delicious treats as well :D

Love,

design

At school I got the assignment to create a prototype. It had to be made of one square piece of fabric from 150x150 cm, and you were aloud to make just one cut. This is the result:

The actual prototype (on a pipo doll)

Hope you liked it...

introducing myself

Hi Girls,

Well, I will start with introducing myself.....

I am Emma and I live in the Netherlands (that tiny country in Europe famous for it's windmills and wooden shoes, ;).
My biggest passions are cooking, baking, interior and fashion (which I study as well).
In my spare time I love to sing, draw, meet my friends and family, and bake the most delicious things......so, I love to be creative.

Although I lived (almost) all my life in a city (except for my exchange time in South Carolina), my dream is to live on the English country side. That country is so beatiful and fairy tale-like, I couldn't think of a nicer place to live.

That's about it, so I hope you're going to enjoy my blog!
