Wildflowers & Windmills at Kinderdijk

Did you ever come upon something so remarkable and unexpected that it actually took your breath away?

I’m not often rendered speechless, but that’s exactly what happened to me on our trip to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring windmills from the 1740s.

Loves of the Last Week // Birthday Edition

Okay, I know this version is a day late, but that's because I turned 29 this weekend (and consequently had a lot of naps to recover my strength over the last few days...)!

It's been a bit of a whirlwind since Thursday - I got promoted on Thursday, PJ got some great news Friday, I went out for my first real St. Patrick's celebration in Gent at Patrick Foley's with new friends, and then had the most relaxing actual birthday of my 20s.

A few other highlights along the way...

Loves of the Last Week // 03.03.19

It’s been another crazy week, but luckily out Dry February (or Tournée Minérale as they like to call it here) is over and I was finally able to have a nice glass of wine on Friday night after a great night of bowling and air hockey with my colleagues. 

My weekend was basically spent on the couch with Hobson, who accidentally hurt his little leg jumping over the couch on Thursday night. And while it’s been terrible seeing him not as active, the cuddles have been fantastic. The cheese board we had last night didn't hurt either!

Loves of the Last Week // 24.02.19

Oh man, this week has been tough. We’re finally in our last week of Dry February and I seriously could have used a glass of wine on Tuesday and Thursday of this week. Hell doesn’t even begin to describe it! It’s all good now, I swear. 

Also, the Invisalign diet is real, you guys. But my teeth have never been cleaner in my life - that’s how much I have to brush them. I switch to tray 2 of 22 tomorrow and I’m pumped! On my course, I'll be changing trays each week instead of every two, but this means my teeth have less time to get used to the trays, so I’m also very excited about the soup in my fridge that I’ll be eating on Tuesday.

Loves of the Last Week // 17.2.19

Oh man - what a week! Valentine's day dinner was delish, I got some great news on Friday (see my last love), I officially joined my floorball team, and spring is finally here (though while I love the warmth, it's unnerving that it was 60 degrees in the middle of February)! That, and it's officially one month until I turn 29. Last week had its ups and downs, but I'm glad that everything happened.
