my colors

Hello my lovelies

I for once L O V E to do my nails.
So I though it was time for me to finally share it here with you the
colors that make my head! ;-)

This one is "woodstock" from the line "summer of love" from essence.
I have the impression this is a little girls brand but I like it quite
a lot.

Have fun.

Olá meus amores!

Como alguns de vcs já devem saber eu A M O pintar as unhas.
Então eu decidi que é hora de eu dividir minhas cores aqui com vcs! ;-)

Essa é "woodstock" da linha "summer of love" da essence.
Eu tenho a ligeira imprenssão de que essa é uma marca para meninhas,
mas eu gosto!

Divirtam-se.

Don't you just love when you wake up just feeling happy!?

Nothing can put you down and all its gray looks pink into your eyes!

Well, I DO love it. And I think this is what I most like about this time of the year, is that all days are just like that. Happy days!

Hope all of you are well and enjoying another end/begin of year with your loved ones ;-)

Wishing you a wonderful thursdays and a GREAT December!

Você simplesmente não ama quando vc acorda simplesmente se entindo feliz!?

Nada pode te colocar para baixo e mesmo dias cinzas parecem rosa aos seus olhos!

Well, Eu AMO dias assim. E eu acho que é isso o que eu mais gosto sobre essa época do ano, é que todos os dias são dias assim. Dias FELIZES!

Espero que todos vcs estejam bem e aproveitando cada minuto junto dos amores da sua vida ;-)

Fico por aqui, com desejos de uma ótima quinta-feira e um Dezembro EXCELENTE!

hello hello!

I know I am away far more than the extension of my conference but I didn't stop since I am back... at least last weekend I was able to catch up with the sleep...
I was soooooo very tired!

Anyhow... here is a sneak peak of Luxor temples...
I have much more pics upload, but first I need to find my camera cable :-S
In meanwhile, have a nice week you all!

------------------------------
oi oi...

Eu sei, eu sei que eu estou distante do meu blog por muito mais tempo do que a conferência me serivia como desculpa... Mas eu não parei desde que voltei...
Pelo menos eu consegui dormir final de semana passado... Eu estava tãããão cançada

De qq maneira... tô parando aqui só para deixar vcs com água na boca sobre os templos do Egito... Mas por hora isso é tudo que eu tenho... pelo menos até eu achar o cabo da minha câmera...

Até lá... uma boa semana para vcs! ;-)

I am just stopping by to wish you all an amazing weekend and a great week ahead.

All my hard work of the last weeks paid off and I am off to Luxor, Egypt!

See you all in a week from now!

Olá meus amores!

Estou dando uma passadinha só para desejar-lhes um ótimo final de semana e uma excelente futura semana.

Todo o meu trabalho pesado das últimas semanas finalmente renderam e eu estou indo para o Egito!

I should be working on my talk right now, but I goofing around from blog to blog while trying to keep eyes open...

Eu devia estar trabalhando no meu talk, mas eu estou é matando tempo, surfando de blog em blog na tentativa de manter meus olhos abertos...

Hello my dears!

I know it has been a long time I don't write in here, but last week was a very busy week, as the previous two weeks and as will be the following two weeks too!

Lots of work to do, lots of paper-works to be sorted out...

But all in all, I am still here, the sky is still gray, physics still rocks my world and decor, fashion and books bring me serenity ;-)

Anyhow, I've stopped by just to say hello, before my jumping workout and my run to the job, and to tell you that hubby and I started climbing! :-D

Oh well, we only had one class until now, but it was awesome!!!
Pieter feels all fine today, unlike me, who feels the arms just a bit more than usual, but also, he was just holding me... I was holding HIM! (and I did fly away a couple of times while bringing him down... nevertheless, FUN and safe! ;-))
For now we have no pics of it, but who know, maybe in a future ;-)
Have all a nice week!
__________________________
Olá meus queridos!

Eu sei, eu sei, já faz algum tempo desde a minha última entrada, mas essas últimas semanas têm sido super agitadas, assim como serão ainda as próximas semanas tb!

Muito trabalho pra fazer, muita papelada para ser organizada...

Mas, mesmo com tudo, eu ainda estou aqui, o céu ainda está cinza, física ainda balança as estruturas do meu mundo, decoração, fashion e livros ainda me trazem serenidade ;-)

Em todo caso, eu só vim aqui dar um olá, antes do meu aquecimento e de correr para o trabalho, e para contar para vcs que eu e o maridão começamos a escalar! :-D

Bom... só tivemos uma aula até agora, mas foi ÓTIMO!!!
Pieter está todo ótimo, eu, pelo contrário, tô com os braços um pouco sensíveis, mas tb, ele estava me segurando, enquanto eu O segurava (e até levantei vôo umas duas vezes enquanto o trazia para baixo... em todo caso, SUPER DIVERTIDO e seguro! ;-))

Por enquanto não temos nenhuma fotinho, mas quem sabe numa próxima vez ;-)

Por hora, uma boa semana para todos!

Hello lovelies!

I've been very busy lately putting my work life back together and preparing slides for the upcoming neutrino conference next month!

I am sooooo excited about it!

It is going to be in Luxor!

So great! :-D

I will tell you all about it later ;-)

For now, love to all my friends and a lovely weekend coming up!

(... hopefully, if I am able to control myself, I will be away from the internet!

Tomorrow I have a girls dinner and saturday is my sister in law birthday party... but who knows? I will probably pop up around ;-) )

---------------------------------------------------

Olá meus amores!

Eu tenho andado super ocupada ultimamente, colocando meu trabaho em dia e preparando slides para uma conferência sobre neutrinos no próximo mês!

Eu estou tããããão excitada sobre a conferência!

Vai ser em Luxor!

:-D

Numa próxima postagem eu falo mais sobre o assunto ;-)

Por agora, uma lembrancinha amorosa para todos os meus amigos e um ótimo final de semana pela frente!

(... quem sabe, se eu conseguir me controlar, eu ficarei longe da internet!

Amanhã eu tenho uma jantar com uma amiga e no sábado é a festa de aniversário da minha cunhada... mas quem sabe? Talvez eu apareça por aqui ;-) )

---------------------------------------------------

till next time!

Essa é para as brasileiras!

Mamãe, que agora é viciada em blogs tanto quanto eu (talvez mais) me enviou uma super dica de blog que acabou virando duas!

Manga com pimenta e Bicha fêmea

Para fazer propaganda de dois em um aqui vai uma descrição do pq *bicha fêmea* pelas palavras do *manga com pimenta* ;-)

Vcs duas estão de parabéns

Pra quem sabe português, eu indico!

Uma boa quarta para todos!

bjs,

A.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mas dá licença que eu sou Bicha Fêmea

Por que somos Bichas?

*Porque gostamos de rosa, roxo, amarelo, cores berrantes ou clarinhas e que brilha (ou não) que nem purpurina.

*Quando achamos uma barata, gritamos escandalosamente.

*É de homem que gostamos!

*É das roupas femininas que gostamos mais ainda.

*Equilibramos todos os dias em salto alto e não perdemos o rebolado

*Sempre temos maquiagem na bolsa.

Por que somos Fêmeas?

*Temos TPM

*Somos nós que cuidamos da casa, da nossa família e do nosso corpo.

*Também fazemos decoração, limpeza e outras coisitas.

*Somo mulher, esposa, amante, amiga, namorada, mãe e etc.

*Ficamos grávidas.

Porque ser mulher é bom demais!

rested...

Zen Hammock for your iPod, cell phone, keys, jewelry...

... I know that those phones are!

hahahaha

Hope you all feel more rested than I am!

I've slept soooo short from sunday to monday... it was a horrible night! Too cold, too hot, too cold and too noise!

The constructions on the front street became a nightmare!!! And it doesn't seem like it is going to be done anytime soon... :-( sighs...

This night, even though a bit better, it was the same... plus now my head has this tension headache, that believe me or not, it came on during a pilates class and now, though less, is still making me tense...

Hope I will have a better day today... and hope the week will suddenly bloom!

Wishing all of us a rested tuesday ;-)

--------------------------------------------------------

Espero que vcs estejam se sentindo mais descançados do que eu!

Eu dormi muuuuuuuuuuito pouco de domingo para segunda... foi uma noite horrível! Muito frio, muito quente, muito frio, muito barulho!

A obra na rua onde eu moro está se transformando num pesadelo!!! E aparentemente não está nem um pouco perto de acabar... :-(

Essa noite, mesmo sendo um pouco melhor, foi quase a mesma coisa... + uma tensa dor de cabeça, que acredite em mim ou não, começou durante minha aula de pilates e ainda agora, um pouco menos intensa, continua a me perturbar...

Espero que eu tenha um dia melhor hj... e espero que a semana comece a desabroxar logo logo!

Wishing all of us a rested tuesday ;-)

Semana passada foi super cheia... mas num bom sentido!

Foi repleta de reuniões com amigos e família... papo bom, comida boa e muito chocolate... :-)

english or american?

I am tired... dozing my head off on my laptop... and still, a growing hunger sensation is setting house here and not let me go...

I have no big plans for the weekends, some friends catch up, (maybe try to clean the house a bit)... and relax... but all starting with brunch @ the coffeeshop down town (a delicious place right in front of Miruna's house. luck girl!)

... anyways... all I am thinking now is: english or american?

... both will have bacon :-) but one will come with fried eggs, beans and sausage (and some toast), while the other will come with scrambled eggs and pancakes!

ohhhhhh, what a hard choice!

But I tell you what! In my perfect world I would be able to get Ana's breakfast: fried eggs, bacon, sausages, beans and some pancakes aside ;-)

Good Night to you!

and a lovely weekend...

Black & White

This is my favorite bag!
It has a good size, not huge, not small. Everything I need fits inside it.
It is black & white, so it fits with everything! ;-)
And today, as I was all in black, I've added this colorful key-chain, from Accessorize, to make the visual lighter!

I had a great evening!
The dance was fantastic! :-)

Hope u all had a nice day!

Saturday Morning / Sábado de manhã

The week has ended and saturday is finally here...

I, personally, like the feeling of a saturday quite a lot. It is my favorite day!
I like it even better than fridays. Fridays evening are fun, in a "I am free" kind of way, but saturdays are full! No time to get up, no time to sleep.

Saturday is my day! Where I can be lazy or productive in my own way...

And you? Do u have a favorite day? Or all are the same fabulous scenario to you? ;-)

Wishing u a fab saturday!
Enjoy the weekend!!! (cause after a sunday, there is always a monday waiting for you :-P)

xx,

A.

-------------------

A semana (de trabalho) acabou e sábado finalmente está aqui...

Eu, pessoalmente, adoro sábados. É o meu dia predileto!

Acho sábados melhor do sextas. Sexta a noite são divertidas, um sentimento de "liberdade", mas sábados são completos! Sem hora para acordar, sem a necessidade de dormir cedo.

Sábado é o meu dia! É quando eu posso ficar a toa, ou ser produtiva no meu passo pessoal...

E vc? Vc tem um dia predileto? Ou todos os dias possuem sempre o mesmo cenário fabuloso para vc?

Desejando a todos um sábado fabuloso!

Curta o final de semana!!! (porque depois de domindo, sempre tem uma segunda a sua espera :-P)

And another week start...

As far as I know, mondays are gray days all around the world, so it is up to us to find something to make our mondays a bit more bright...

For me, today, was a nice lunch break! :-)

For some weeks now, there is this new cafe place close to my house, called "koffie oost", that I so much wanted to try it out but didn't have the time... So today was the day!
I've biked from work, and had a stop for this gorgeous thing! :-D
Yes... it was delicious!

And you, what do you do to bright your day up?

cupcakes

Hello my dears...

Today I've tried my hand at baking again. Yeah, that's right! It wasn't my first time. ;-)

I have to say, no modesty at all :-P , I am a very good baker...! Unfortunately my oven doesn't allow me much... (if you don't believe check on here!)

Anyway, I've decided to do cupcakes (as 27 minutes ago, w

as still the 16th of may and I am married for 4 months.... and at least the first year come along, I want to celebrate every month! than I can shorten to twice a year, as I've had two parties ;-) )

The cupcakes were delicious! :-D

I am very satisfied with it! Pieter helped, of course ;-) After all, it is his celebration too! ;-)

Here are some pics for you, from our first attempt.

(hopefully on the second one the cakes will grow up more ;-))

Sometime ago I saw this beautiful vintage set on etsy... already sold out!

I was devastated! :-(

My parents have a set just like it and I am just crazy about it!!! And am looking for it since the moment I've start to

arrange my own house!

Well... I need to search no more!!! :-)

Today my parents sent me a picture of MY own set! (a wedding gift exchange :-) )
