Perfect Evening

In my opinion the best idea for the perfect evening 
is a cup of tea and good book. I'm not good
at being patient, but I was waiting for one for weeks!
I've just bought "Over the Horizon".
This's the final book of the trilogy 
written by Andriej Diakow.
I love the smell of new books!
And I'm sure, that the joy of smelling turning pages
can't be substitute by reading e-book.. Not for me.

Here's a collage of photos:
sweet brioches called in Poland "drożdżówki". Made these
for sunday's morning. The entire
family loved them.

Adventurous week

Who knew losing weight could be fun?

Last month I went into a Zumba class

with my cousin and her friend. 

I was surprised at how fit and healthy

I began feeling after few lessons.

Awesome!

Few days ago was Claudia's birthday. 

We went for a Black Metal Night,

but now I just know that I don't like 

this kind of music. I tried to

enjoy of being there, but I really couldn't..

For many of us, music is part of life,

part of who we are. We defend our

beliefs about music with as much venom

and as we would defend our lovers..

Don't be afraid to be yourself, 

in my opinion it's really important.

Anyway I made for Claudia "black metal"

cupcakes :)

Last weekend I spent with Damon and

his best friends. We went for a Poznan

Game Arena. It was pretty awesome to

saw so many cosplayers at the same place,

the same time. Next year I'll be 

Katarina from League of Legends!

It's so cold in here..

The leaves are changing, the air is much chillier 

and  warm drinks will really hit the spot.

I don't want to leave my warm bed,

unfortunalety I can't stay in bed all day..

I was going to go for a school trip to Liverpool

in November, but for now we still don't know 

more than few facts - it's not enough people 

to go. I'm so sad! :(

It's John Lennon - birthday present 

for Kate. She said he's looking good,

but I know that his glasses, nose

and lips don't look as well as should.

September - be good for me.

My apologies for the long absence. Shame on me.. 
It's not like I haven't been busy.

My weight slowly started to decrease.
Well.. I'm not yet in the land of milk and honey.
In fact, I'm still in the desert... 

Ho
Lee
Crap

School starts tomorrow. It's madness..

Homemade Strawberry Lemonade

Summer has arrived, my friends! 

Few days ago in Poznan was raining all the time, 

but now all the windows in my house are open.

I really don't know what is it about me and 

strawberries, but I'm obsessed!

I love buying them when they're in season

and perfectly fresh, juicy and ripe.

I went through a time in my life where

everywhere I went, if they served

strawberry lemonade, I ordered it.

I've never made it at home before.

Yesterday I've tried the basic lemonade

with the twist of this summer seasonal fruit.

Ingredients:

• 1,5 cups strawberries, trimmed and halved
• 1,5 cups fresh lemon juice
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 cups cold water

Preparation:

• Puree strawberries with 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  in a blender until smooth
• Force through a fine sieve into a bowl
  (to remove seeds)
• Stir together strawberry puree, remaining
  lemon juice, sugar and water in a pitcher
• Taste and add more sugar if desired
• Best served cold

Finally it's here - Summer Time!

It's so nice to see the sunshine and be warm again after
an incredibly long winter and questionable spring.

The shortest night of 2013 is behind us.
Poznan was the scene of thousands of paper laterns
filling the night sky. St. John's Night 
(known also as Midsummer Night or Kupala Night)
celebrated by Slavs for hundreds of years 
is a festival of fire, moon, joy and love.
For a moment it seemed like the night sky was ablaze.
This was definitely the most romantic night in Poznan
and I'm a bit dissapointed that Damon couldn't be there 
with me. 

Ursynalia Fest 2013

Last weekend me and Damon went to the

Ursynalia Warsaw Student Festival.

The event started about 3p.m., but we 

were sitting under once of the big umbrellas

(the weather was so weird, at most

of the time was sunny and hot, 

but sometimes it was raining)

and waited for Parkway Drive's concert. 

There were a lot of stores with T-shirts, 

accessories, food and beer, but most of them

were very expensive. Not much to say about

the food options - hot-dogs, ice-creams and

fried food. I think, you know what is the most

important at students' parties - good fun and cheap tickets, 

that's why this year people were disappointed.

The moment when we arrived onto the main stage

was incredible, it was a sea of black T-shirts -

I knew I was at the right place. Only metalheads

will wear all black in 27+ degree celsius temperatures

when mud is everywhere around the scene.

When Winston came to the stage and 

looked into our side, my heart was beating so

fast! This band is so amazing live that it's

better than perfect. I'm still processing it.
