Inspiration: Wise Words













EN// I love Pinterest! Since my photo editing program is pretty much stuffed I decided to pinterest the whole night (and listen to Amy MacDonald...) in stead of fixing it.... so I thought: why not treat you to some of my favorites quotes? I can literately spend all night pinning, getting inspired by all the wise words, lovely pics etc. So for today I leave you a scrapbook-page of my favorite quotes; hope they inspire you as much as they inspire me! 

NL// Ik ben verslaafd aan Pinterest! My photo editor programma werkt momenteel niet, en in plaats van daar iets aan doen heb ik de hele avond gepinned (and Amy Mac geluisterd...). Dus vandaag laat ik jullie mijn favo quotes zien! Ik kan letterlijk de hele avond pinnen; Ik raak zo geinspireerd door al die wijze woorden, mooie foto's etc. Dus: hier mijn scrapbook-pagina met een paar van mijn favo quotes. Dat ze jou net zo mogen inspireren als ze mij inspireren!

Food: Apple Bites

IMG_0461

Since Cosmo gets away with it, then why can't I get away with it? This was the first thing that popped intoo my head this morning. What am I talking about? Posting recipes in a fashionmagazine, or fashionblog! Well, I'm kinda falling of my religion in 2013, writing about sports, menswear and food; but actually: I'm quite liking the fact that I can share all my passions here with you guys (and since I kinda bought a house, my shoppingbudget has shrunk, so I have found new hobbies to kill time...).

Well Sunday morning is my baking morning; I get up early (hangover or not) and bake something; ussualy scones or muffins. This Sunday I made a recipe inspired by a pic I pinned on pinterest.
Fancy some bite-size apple munchies? Follow these easy steps!

You'll need:
Ingredients:
- 4 sheets of puffpastry (deforsted)
- 1 big apple (peeled)
- 2 table spoons of sugar
- 3 table spoons of cinnamon
- 2 table spoons of melted butter (I used liquid baking butter)
Tools:
- a sharp knife
- cutting board
- a peeler
- baking tray, lined with baking paper
- 2 small bowls
- a brush
- oven

Step 1:
- Preheat the oven via the intructions on your puff pastry-pack
- Put the butter in bowl
- Mix 2 table spoons of cinnamon and all of the sugar together in a bowl
- Slice your apple in bite size pieces

Step 2:
- Slice the puffpastry in triangles
- Brush some butter on the triangle
- Put an apple piece on a long end of the triangle
- Put a teaspoon of the sugar and cinnanom mix on the apple piece
- Roll the apple in the pastry, to get a little parcell

Step 3:
- Put the apple parcells on the lined baking tin
- Brush some butter on the top of each apple parcell
- Sprinkle some cinnamon on top of the little parcells
- Bake the apple parcells in approx. 20 min at 220 degrees celcius*
(Temperatures may vary due to type of oven, and type of puff pastry. Follow the instructions on your puff pastry-pack).

Step 4:
- When nice and golden; get them out of the oven.
- Cool the apple bites on a rack; (some of the sugar and cinnanom can run out through the gaps)
- ENJOY!

Well I used far too much puff pastry; but to tell you the truth: it was passed it's used-by-date, so I dediced to use all of it. It tasted fine by the way. My man and I ate all these apple bites in less then an hour while watching Dark Shadows on Sunday morning. Love it!

What are your thougts on my recipe? Are you going to try it? And how are you like recipes on my blog? Yay or nay?

My Favorites #1

Something new on my blog: a few of my favorite things at the moment. Well, it's not totally new, last year I made a post just like this one (see it here). And God only knows how often I'll make a post like this, since I'm not known for my consistency! Back to the post: Spring has just sprung so a few of my fave things: Spring addition!

#1 - Fave Work-Out: Running! Not that I run everyday, but now the weather is better, I love to go for a run outside. Pushing myself to go further every time. For inspiration I read the blog of Girls love 2 run, that motivates me to put on my running shoes. And off course I love to shop for my work-out outfits; love this outfit from Nike.


#2 - Fave Food: Now with spring I love to eat healthy and green. And no; it's not a diet, I just love it! This food makes me feel as good as it tastes.


#3 - Fave Quote: Just believe in your dreams - just in case I forget to do that. I love quotes by the way. See my pinterest board for more quotes. 


#4 - Fave Photography Style: You might have seen it in my latest outfit post, I'm so into Black 'n White photography at the moment. This is quite weird since spring brings sun, and nice colours. But what can I say: I love this pic of Mary-Kate Olsen!


#5 - Fave Nail Polish: Last week I bought two nail polishes of the Holland Collection of O.P.I; My current fave is "did you ear about van Gogh?" which a nude-slash-beige colour. Also love the quality, it's amazing, especially when you are used to cheap crappy nail polishes!


What do you think of my first (okay, second!) favorites list? Want to see this more often on my blog? Or should I leave it for once a year?
Well I'm of for a run on my lazy Sunday. Hope you all are having a good weekend!
