Is today already Wednesday? How did that happen?
I think that this self portrait says a lot about how I’ve been feeling lately…
If you, too, are in need of some humor, have a look at David Shrigley’s site.
I especially like his help desk!

The wish is that a certain someone will take me to one of my favorite Zürich restaurants.
The cup of coffee was to prepare me for the second round of interviews. Many thanks for all of your lovely comments last time, they really worked!!!

That’s what my stomach looks like right about now…

These are two pages from my sketchbook. I’ve been drawing while sitting in front of the television. I’ve been watching loads of TV to brush up on my German skills. Which is good for my German but maybe not too good for my creativity. My creativity doesn’t seem to respond too well to trading in my art studio for the television room…
I’m still on the look out for a little studio space here in Zürich. Unfortunately the last one didn’t work out. Too bad. It was such a sweet little space.
But hopefully something else will come up.
In the meantime…
Hello pens and paper and hello TV!
And if I happen to disappear for a few hours, you might find me looking around in here: Charmingwall

A few weeks ago, my little blog was happy to have reached 300 posts!
Go, go little blog, go!
Many thanks to all of you out there who stop by for a look and a read and maybe even a link.
It has been such a pleasure to meet you! I look forward to at least 300 more posts in the future.

Sunday afternoon, I escaped to Uto Kino for a movie. When I’m in a movie theater, it often feels like my life has been put on “pause” and sometimes that’s exactly the right feeling to have.
The movie: A Thousand Years of Good Prayers
Food was a main feature in the movie. At times it even made me hungry to watch them eat.
A fabulous food blog that is new to me: Smitten Kitten

Alexandra had a wonderful post entitled, How to Apple Pie.
I was not only inspired but also hungry. So I went to the supermarket and came away with peaches instead of apples.
Here’s what happened:
1. Wash the peaches
2. Poach the peaches
3. Peel their skins away and slice
4. Eggs and sugar are always good
5. Cream and cognac are even better
6. Don’t forget to cheat and buy a pie crust at the market!
7. Put her in the oven
8. Eat on the balcony (as a naughty dinner for one)

I was on my way to a job interview yesterday…
And I stop to take photos of a shop window (Sprüngli).
Hmmmm….
Not so focused???
