Question

My hubby and love Des Oriënt uses Mozilla firefox for his browser. I've noticed that my page doesn't look like how i want it to look. The soft green background in the part of the posts has disappeared and show also the dark green background. So you can't read the posts (or very difficult) Perhaps the fault comes from my hubbies computer. So i want to check this out. Are there more Mozilla firefox users who has the same problem as i described above? Please let me know, so i can (try to) fix it. :-)
Okay, i've changed it, a solid background. I must say that i like this even more, a clearer design. I hope everyone now can read my posts (better). Tell me please, has the colom from the posts and the sidebar with links, profile etc. now a light background? Thank you.

And the winners are.......

So, i put the names in a singing bowl and i can tell you Emil is very precise and strict in this job ;-) He picked the following winners:


Caio and Emmy congratulations! Please, send me your adress information by mail and i'll send you the two booklets.

Pakjesavond: two give aways.....

Tomorrow evening, the 5th of december, we have in Holland 'pakjesavond' also known as Sinterklaasfeest. It's a very old Dutch tradition, a special event for the children. But even when the children are older or grown up this evening stays special. Drinking hot chocloate, eating chocloate letters or 'pepernoten', enjoying each others company and giving each other presents accompanied with little rhymes. Also we make some teasing presents with funny rhymes to point out someones flaws. For instance a game which needs lots of patience for the impatient ones. But you have to make the teasing present yourself. And it's fun to make these surprises.

I thought it would be fun to play Sinterklaas myself. Two give-aways i have; 2 x my two booklets Drawings 1994-2006 & Drawings 2007-2008. So if you're interested let me know by commenting this post. Next sunday, 13 december, the 13 will be a lucky number for two of you readers. My son Emil will pick two names from a Sinterklaas bag and they win two booklets each.

I wish a warm december with lots of joy for all of you.

More organic worlds

Hi there my dear readers, at the moment i am not that much on the internet. I have a muscle disease and at the moment it's a bit rebellious towards my body. So i am a bit silent, but i hope to visit my favourite blogs soon again. For now some new insects and organics. I hope you'll enjoy it. Until later, i catch you soon. :-D

Poetical thoughts for my drawings

Innocent little town

If i withdraw
and fall silent
for a long time
where wander my thoughts?

To the home
with secret places
where i hided
but never thought safe.


Cocoon
He felt a terrible weakness
She moved in an intense way
The sky above was cloudless
Her eyes had too much too say

And where is he now?


Just forget

My breath fails me while dreaming.
Crimsonred blot my thoughts.
I try to banish
the vague shadows of a dark day
with blue skies
in a sunny eternity.

English is not my mothertongue, but i love to write in english because it makes me think better in what i want to say, what to express. If there are any HUGE grammatical faults in my writings, please let me know. I'll appreciate it. Thank you.

I proudly present

Ladies and gentlemen, i proudly present you my son, who shows you his favourite pages of my booklets. "Now i am famous, right mama?" he asked me. ;-) Sweet, isn't he? But yes, i am also proud of this 2 booklets i made with some of my best drawings (i think) from 1994 till 2008. In it also some poems and information. If you are interested, you can find them in my (new) blogshop. Soon to come more booklets, cards etc....

And for now two lovely pictures of my youngest beloved one:
