To preserve fuel and to promote a healthier lifestime, I’ve been walking almost daily to the shop for my daily groceries. And to make it a bit more entertaining I found different routes to the supermarket. Off the beaten track to get more steps in. And it has been fun re-discovering the places that I roamed as a child. And also meeting the local pets, there are a lot of cats on my route. Some are a bit skittish but others were full on leg rubbing and rolling on the floor.
A new Korean BBQ place opened up near our workplace and I was excited to try it out. The food was great but it was self-serve buffet style and I just don’t like bumping into other customers and kids kept running around the place which made the atomsphere very chaotic. Had hoped to find a place closer to home to visit reguraly but Utrecht will be the best location for us. Besides my husband and I have decided we are getting to old for all-you-can-eat. It feels more rushed and stressed.
The rest of the week was dedicated to more spring cleaning. Organised my stationary and put all my stickers in a binder for easy access. I don’t feel like journalling daily but creating a travel memory journal is something I am looking into. I can start with our upcoming trip to Düsseldorf. It is our annual get-away-from-Kingsday trip. We rather spend our day off in either Germany or Belgium for some fun walks and basking in the sun.
In the past I collected various card games like Pokemon but I quit after I broke up. Now I have started collecting again but on different terms. Not trying to complete full sets as they come out but instead the awsome art cards that are there. I did make a price cap because I am not going to spend big bucks on cards haha.
There are two artists (for now) that I am creating collection binders for. Asako Ito crocheted the Pokemon and I have almost completed that set which will go in a 4 card binder. Still need to find a binder that fits my taste. Her cards were in the price range of 2 to 30 cents, only the Snorlax is going to be €10 (which is not that bad).
The other artist is Yuka Morii with her clayfigure Pokemon which will take me a longer time to collect as she has designed over 200 cards haha.
Music wise it has been a bit of a low this week. I was so busy on Thursday that I forgot to put on a record. So We had only listened to ELO on Tuesday. ELO always perks me up. It a great band and the songs just resonate well with me. Bonne chance next time :D.
What I did binge this week was the K-RomCom was Nice to Not Meet You with Lee Jung-jae and Lim Ji-yeon. I fucking love Lee Jung-jea, he had such an innocent boyish look in this series for a 52y old man. If I could just squeeze him. And everyone one saying I love him because of Squidgame, I never finished it. He is a great actor but I couldn’t stand the premise of the series. People were just cruel and you have some awful rich guys betting on the misery and death of people. I am an eat-the-rich-girl. I know Lee Jung-jae from many other movies like Oh! Brothers, Il Mare, Deliver Us from Evil, The Thieves and many more. This guy is multi-talented, and ofcourse handsome. Just let me have my fangirl moment.
