Foodies

Dear Nana,

Food is important for our health and happiness. For our foodies we should choose non processed foods. Food of which you can see they are made of, foods that are close to nature. That means no cookies, chips, candies, soda drinks, white rice/pasta/bread, deep fried food, etcetera. 



For pasta, rice, bread and cornflakes we should always choose for the full grain version. Cornflakes are tricky though, a lot of them contain hidden sugers to make you addicted to the sugar high.

And I would like to cut the bread ourself! It will stay fresh really long, and I can cut some thicker pieces. Ideally the bread contains some pieces of grain or oatmeal, or even raisins.


We will eat some yoghurt every now and then and add some healthy nuts. The nuts contain fats that are good for your brain, blood vessels and the fibres clean your inside.

To reward ourselves, we will finish a mini bottle of red wine and a small chocolate bar together once a week. They contain very high amounts of anti oxidants that will keep us feeling young. And its a treat for rewarding us for not eating any sugary stuff anymore. I have stopped eating all candies and soda pops. Once a week we can reward ourselves with a wine and chocolate moment and some romantic hugs and chats!

One of the foods that is highly underestimated nowadays are beans. I love all beans! We should make one veggy dish a week with some chick peas or other beans. They are yummylicious, they lower cholesterol and they replace meat. Also, we should eat fish twice a week for the protein and healthy fats. Fat is really good for energy and there is vitamins in them too. 

And ofcourse we will get a big fruit basket in which there will always be fruities! We ll get them at the market where they are almost for free.

Lubbzzzz, teh meez

Two interior ideas

Dear Nana,

I was thinking I would like one or two tall plants in our home to give our home a nice green look. I was thinking of using artificial plants because they require no attention and they look just as good!


 Ofcourse we will add a nice pot with some colourful stones in it!



Secondly, I was thinking of using some recycled wood elements in our apartment. Not too much, but some accents. The good thing about this is that it looks good, its practical and its for free! We could use some laque to give the wood an accent, but we would still see the wood colour. Or we could go fancy and just paint the wood whatever colour we like! I was especially thinking of bookshelves and a clothing rack. 


To the left, shelves. I was thinking of not stacking them but properly screwing them to the wall at 1.50 metres height minimum, and also perhaps putting some of them up diagonally so that the books dont need book supports. 


To the right, pallets. Im not sure this will work though, we would need a very tiny pallet.

But it might give you some inspiration!

And to conclude this post, I just added some crazy recycle pictures you might like, just for inspiration.

More to follow, ill look up some wall papers and murals we might like!
