Some flowers.





Something weird happened with he ruccola; after the
first leave the sprouts stopped growing and started blooming from
one day to the next, but that's ok for me,
flowers are always welcome :^)

The white flower in the picture below is buckwheat,
the purple one is Phacelia.

I was also making a -pretty unstable- construction for the
sweat peas some time ago, but it survived the tonight's
thunderstorm, so that's also ok :^)






after a rainshower





blooming sage.

more photos in a next post!

Thanks everybody for the nice words on my
previous post;
so, here's another mishmash :^)

were at the MAS.

A mixed lot.











I was working on the denim project last couple
of weeks, too bad I can't show you any pictures
in advance, I hope you understand;
yet, I'm feeling a bit guilthy about my neglect here lately so,
I hope to content you with this mishmash of images
I've found in my archive;

- a maquette for the Philipspavilion by G.Th. Rietveld,
from this nice book.
- mieke's red tights in march.
- a woven sampler in red linen and indigo chenille.
- a neglected potato.
- a potholder

next time a more coherent post :^)

Denim.



I was cutting my old, far too narrow jeans into pieces,
not in a blind fury,
but because I will participate the denim exhibition at
MR KITLY,
curated by Dell Stewart.
More photos later!






Jane Birkin press cutting & siamese cherry
Wormhole at frazier & wing.
thank you Heather :^)

Comfort food.





I feel pretty rotten since last weekend; runny nose,
sore throat, coughing fits etc...
Instead of sticking to the healthy foods like kiwi fruit,
chicken soup and fresh vegetables ...
I had a Truffé Noir Orange Côte d'Or chocolate bar as breakfast
and for dinner this evening a pepper&salt Lay's SuperChips,
and of course lots of coca cola.

That's me in 1978 when I was in artschool; I remember
Pope Paul VI died that year and I also remember some
disco hits like Get Off and le freak c'est chic. :^)

I got the chocolate chicken from Veronik and the
marchmallow animals come from here.






Goodnight.

On the terrace.







Mieke's Pilea Peperomioides babies are swarming
around already; one arrived at my home and one
at Hermine's place :^)
Thyme & lavender in the first and sage & Santalina
tomatos in the second picture.





My first harvest of ruccola next week I think :^)
