I got tagged by Lea! Here are the rules:
1. Respond and rework. Answer the questions on your blog, replace one question you dislike with a question of your own invention; add a question of your own.
2. Tag eight other un-tagged people.
(I didn’t follow the rules exactly…)
What is your current obsession?
Sunshine, jobhunting, Zooey Deschanel, ink, handwriting, hot air balloons, South Park…
What are you wearing right now?
A white pair of tights, a blue denim dress and white boots.
Do you nap a lot?
No, never actually. Only when I’m on holiday, then it is so nice to lay in the grass or on the beach and just doze away.
Who was the last person you hugged?
GJ
If you were a tree, what tree would you be?
This one. I’m note sure what kind of tree it is, a chestnut?
What’s for dinner?
I’m not sure yet, I’m thinking a vegetarian quiche and a salad. And maybe some homemade soup.
What was the last thing you bought?
A raisin/nut-bread at Marqt.
What are you listening to right now?
An Alela Diane song and a helicopter flying over my house.
What is your favourite weather?
I like all seasons, but spring and summer have to be my favourites. It gets me out of the house more, which is always a good thing.
What’s on your beside table?
A lamp, a glass of water, a postcard, earplugs and 3 books.
Say something to the person/s who tagged you.
Hi Lea! How did the marinated cucumber salad work out? My housemate makes a pretty good one. If you’re in Amsterdam sometime I will ask him if he makes one for you!
If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you want it to be?
In Sweden, by a lake. Sigh…
Favourite vacation spot?
Last year I had a beautiful vacation at Corsica, but Sweden is still my favourite. Jumping in lakes and having lots of vegetarian bbq’s!
What would you like to have in your hands right now?
A kitten.
What is your favourite tea flavour?
Earl grey. Sometimes with milk.
What would you like to get rid of?
Oooh, I have the same problem as Lea, I have so much. So much of everything. Help!
If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Somewhere on a roofterrace in the sun would be just fine.
What did you want to become as a child?
A bike courier. I still think this is a great job!
I tag: Erin, Gemma, Lena, Emma, Amy, Carolina and whoever wants to play along.
very funny you wanted to become a bike courier as a child!
when I was a child this profession didn’t exist yet.
but by now it is a job I could imagine earning money with -
if there is a city with no rain and snow…
interesting to read your answers rynke! thanks for playing along! i listened to that artist you mentioned alela diane, sounds really good, i have to get my hands on some of her stuff. when i read that you would like to have a kitten in your hand i thought – me too! that would be the best thing to hold. i went to corsica once it’s such a beautiful island. like jeanette i can’t remember bike couriers when i was a child…but then i sort of grew up in a small town. but i can understand why you would have liked to be one as a child! the marinated cucumber salat went well, the recipe is quite easy, so it almost couldn’t go wrong. i would love to taste your room mate’s cucumber salat if i go to amsterdam ; )
jeanette: yeah, the rain and snow would be a slightly less fun part of the job :)
lea: you should give the album the pirate’s gosper by alela diane a listen, I think that one is the best. I also happened to make a salad with lots of cucumber in it this afternoon (a little inspired by you of course). It was great together with the quiche and soup!
so glad to have found your blog thru your comment. i really really like your lettering and your graphic design. it’s lovely!
Your answers made me smile… and how nice it would be to be on a rooftop terrace right now, drinking in the sun.
fietskoerieren is nog niet eens zo’n slecht baantje, in de zomer dan ;) Mijn vriend heeft het een poosje gedaan jaren geleden.
en ik ben ook gek op Zweden (nog nooit geweest alleen, maar heb het gevoel dat ik daar ‘pas’) en Zooey D. Grappig te lezen dat er in blogland zoveel overeenkomsten zijn.
(ik was in intratuin eigenlijk op zoek naar een ‘erwtjes’hangplant, als je die ooit nog eens tegenkomt…)
shash: thanks so much!
gracia: yes, that would be great! You are tagged if you like, too!
Muriel: een ‘erwtjes’hangplant…ik weet niet hoe die eruit ziet, maar mocht ik ‘m tegenkomen, dan hoor je het!
thanks for tagging me! I’ll do it as soon as I can ;)
[...] Tagged three times, guess I better start answering… [...]
