just a quick thank you all for coming last night
we had such an amazing time meeting everybody

and enjoying some great music

.

we took our picture right before everything started

to kill the little time left

and this is how the TAKE A PICTURE pendants work

.

more pictures of our exhibiton coming soon

27.3.11


we´re setting up the exhibiton this weekend
the door of the chapel is quite impressive

.

before this i took a few pictures of some of the things
bracelets made of saw blades
a ring ringing with every move you make

but sweeter than a little bell

maybe i call it "It´s me!"

.

and i finally made an
OLIVE OIL CAKE
(i added quite a bit of chopped up chocolate like in
GOOD TO THE GRAIN
or like in this
RECIPE)
when i woke up the next morning it was gone...

going to show you soon what i turned it into
thank you, apple eaters and hair cutters!
.
have a sunny weekend everyone!
dreaming of this CAKE and these BOOKS

YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!
thank you so much for your orders of the HELP JAPAN NECKLACE

the news keep getting worse and worse
we just couldn´t sit back anymore
knowing nothing can undo these damages
we want at least try to help to ease the pain
by supporting the helpers
.

.
75% of the proceeds go to the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief
through the Japan Red Cross Society
the remaining 25% are solely used
to acquire material to produce the necklaces
.
we would be so happy if you decide to help
and show how much you care by wearing our necklace

our thoughts and love to everyone in Japan
it is heartbreaking
.
you go, E
and make the universities of Saxony nuclear power free
a change is gonna come
and it has to start now

11.3.11


a quick update on E:
she´s up and about and probably leaving the hospital today
of course she´s feeling a bit shattered but K is taking care of her
.
when she comes visiting
i´ll let her wear my bracelet made of apple seeds
to keep the doctor away
.
one minute before she called from the hospital
i had bought this dress
(and a nailpolish called "Geranium" - great colour)
.
we have a tiny exhibition coming up
- more on that soon -
and i need a little collection of streaks of hair
for one last necklace
so if you want to donate - please tell me so!
i´d appreciate it a lot

dear E,
(you probably can´t read that right now)
we´re so hoping everything is not that bad
and it´s a very mild case of traumatic brain injury
- just like you said -
please please get well soon
and never ride a bike without a helmet again
WE LOVE YOU
xoxo

Catherine over at LITTLE GLOWING LIGHTS
posted about this spectacular coloured beet root pasta some time ago
(she added a link to the RECIPE, too)
i just had to try them
while cooking the colour changed to Barbie-pink
and in the end it looked like a salad made with strips of sausage
but it tasted very good with parsley-almond-pesto
.
