street theatre festival 2

The theatre festival did go on with a veg stall full of talking and
dancing veggies, funny music groups and many other performances.
Wasn't possible to see all of them.

Nice etsy: Iris Schwarz found via hoi pippo

It's always nice to have a look at Proef.

street theatre festival

Last night we were at the show of a Spanish theatre group named
Deambulants. Was very spectacular and artistic.
There is a big street theatre festival here in Pforzheim during this week-
end with groups from all over Europe. We will go there tomorrow
as well and I post some more photos then.

Found a very nice blog via Mette: hunter< >gather
Perhaps you know wolfdaughter from her flickr, didn't know she has
a blog too. Here is her site.
And domestic construction, found on poppytalk handmade.

We made our first own honey.
Here it comes out of the honey extractor.
Do I have to tell you that it's absolutely delicious?
Thank you bees!

One more thing on Antwerp: the work of Julia Pott is
exhibited there at the Art Trek along with that of many
other illustrators.
I so would like to be there.

Like this blog: Mieke Willems
It's based in Antwerp. In 2001 I was there with a friend for the
fashion-festival "landed-geland". Antwerp has a fresh and very
original fashion scene and a famous fashion department at the royal
academy of fine arts.
Look at the photos of their last semester show here.

6 things I like today

I was tagged by Fliss and Yasu to tell 6 things I like today.
Thank you both :)

1. Oskar baking mini-pancakes on an old children's cooker.
2. Same boy dancing with a kids' cassette recorder in his hands
early in the morning, listening to rap-music.
3. Agnes in the vintage embroidered dress we found at the flea market
yesterday.
4.Start reading a new crime novel from the public library (of the
Inspector Jury series from Martha Grimes)
5. The colours in the garden.
6. Sitting at the stairs in front of our house with a cup of coffee and
our kids and the neighbours' kids are painting with crayon on the
street.

I tag Anke, Ashley and Mansuetude
