I baked my cupcakes again, using the Cupcake maker, and this time they turned out a LOT better.

I also made my own bonbons/chocolates using a mold with high heels and fans and then I made my own icing using the raspberry stuff in the package and low-fat cream cheese.(For health!) LOL. I am so happy with how they turned out, although some of the cakes are a bit too big, and I impressed everyone with my cupcake skillz. They're REALLY tasty too, so good. I wish I could give everyone one! <3

My female cousin(who lives in England, my aunt married an Englishman, they divorced and my aunt moved back.) A few times a year she and male cousins visit my aunt and usually us as well, they stay for a week or two, three. Anyways, my female cousin "N", I don't want to use her full name because I'm not sure if she'd like that, is married to an Englishman who works in cosmetics, at least the "office" part not the actual making of it. Often, they will bring besides English sweets and fudge also some cosmetics for me and my mother. This time, she outdid herself by giving me this BEAUTIFUL palette, which has pop-up FAIRIES, gorgeous eyeshadows, a primer and mascara. T___T I am unworthy! She told me it reminded her of me so she got me it. There was also an adorable little eyeshadow box with two other colours from the same brand. The palette is seriously the most beautiful thing I have ever seen! ;_; So happy.

( Royal gifts )

It was a beautiful wedding, I adored her dress, she looked so beautiful and he was so handsome in his uniform and Captain hat!

Like many people I look forward to the wedding of English Crown Prince William and his fiancee Kate Middleton. It also, as all royal weddings do, remembered me of the beautiful wedding of our Crown Prince Willem-Alexander and his beautiful wife Maxima. They have three adorable daughters now, but I still remember sitting breathless in front of the television, watching the beautiful ceremony and seeing THE tear, Dutch people know what I mean, when one tear gracefully rolled down Maxima's cheek during the Argentinian song that reminded her of home.

Another highlight was the beautiful trail of the dress, which was made by the talented designer Valentino, and the kiss on the balcony. I scanned two photographs from a magazine I have here, that capture the feeling of that day very well.

Today, the brother of my Moroccan neighboor's wife visited them from Morocco, and he unexpectedly brought a gift for my parents and me, beautifully embroidered sheep leather slippers, in such an unique shape I have not seen before! It was a really sweet gesture and we are all very happy with the slippers, even my father who is not used to snake slippers! We will have to think what to send with him from the Netherlands for his family.

( The slippers are under here(and my eye)! )

I'm bored so I decided to put this together and finally use my journal as a journal! <3

Today I read "Geheim genootschap" or "Secret society", a Dutch Harlequin novel. LOL. Classy.

Then I took this cute photograph of my cat asleep next to me, making cat paws. And I also recieved the cupcake keycaps I ordered on ebay a week earlier from an English seller, they always have a lot of cute cupcake things there. There are six in total, but I used one on my bycicle key as well; the little yellow purse thing is especially made to attach your keys to.

Tomorrow I am going shopping, I especially need a cute new spring coat and white eye pencil, appearantly that really makes your eyes stand out/look white according to youtube's make-up guru Michelle Phan, so I need to try that.

( April 13 )

I made a shopping list for tomorrow, it's so wtf I need to post it in my LJ. XD It was funnier in Dutch though.

----------------------------
No more high heels
No perfume/bags/expensive crap.

No "different" coat. - This has a history, since I already bought two kind of weird, unique coats that looked better on the rack then on me.
