Rainy but not inside.





Last days it was rainy. Time to enjoy browsing through books. I found one filled with delicious ingredients. I am working on quitting smoking and suddenly I find cookbooks everywhere,oh terrible!
I get a terrible desire to make beautiful cakes, the door of the refrigerator is working overtime! But avocado is also good ... 
Limuna is sleeping in a corner,tired of hearing my footsteps, restlessly.

  2. Hello, dear Ingrid,
    I've missed some posts...
    that little white workplace stirs my blood!
    And your giveaway... for your third year, I'm a right? Wohow! Congrats.

    As you told here... quitting with smoking, ahem, well, I wish you luck and a strong will. I'm non smoker for about 12 year now, but still vulnerable.

    Wonderful photos here,
    good atmosphere.

    Best,
    Ariane.

    1. Hello Ariane, it's nice to see you here again :-)
      My give-away was because of my second computer crash. The first time my computer crashed and I bought a laptop but the laptop crashed also. Luckily I had my warranty :-)

      Aha,so maybe I stay vulnerable...
      I know what you mean I didn't smoke for 5 years :-(

      thanx for the compliment,especially the good atmosphere .

      ** love Ingrid

  3. Limuna is such a beauty, I really do love dogs.
    After having thought about it for a very long time, I am trying to gather enough courage to quit smoking. The thought alone makes me a bit nervous, but I also know that I have no choice and I try to imagine how proud and relieved I would feel if I succeeded. I wish you all possible luck, you are brave!

  4. Limuna gorgeous doggy how I love thee?

    Heres a little tip that some of my friends have found useful when they gave up smoking. You get carrots and celery and breadsticks. You cut the celery and carrots into sticks and keep in the fridge. When you have fidgety hands and the urge get a carrot/celery/breadstick and hold it like a cigarette and eat it eat as many as you want that way till the urge stops.

    One of my friends has real success with it and managed to give up smoking without stacking on the weight.

    This technique deals with the symptom of feeling like you have nothing for your hands to do because they are used to holding a cigarette. Holding a carrot stick like a cigarette and eating it smoking style seems to work. You might not want to do this in public but its great for when you are home when the urges are the hardest to control.

    Good luck I hope oyu get through to smoke free life :)

    1. Hi lieve Patrice,
      dat is minder dat het bij jou ook rainy is inside.

    ik schreef dat ik je titel mooi vindt
    alleen dat hier het is: rainy also inside
    en je fotos'fijn!

    en
    een fijne week!
