It's friday, friday, gotta get down on friday!



I'm so excited!


You're probably wondering why


Nope, it's not cuz I'm finally getting my unibrow fixed


All though I should


It's cause my second single will be released this fall!


Hey, don't hate, I can be excited... I ain't no crazy person!


It just feels like my head is gonna explode from excitement


But yay! 
Stay tuned for upcoming pics and progress running up to the release of the second single



So we are finally getting back in the studio to finish the second single! Get ready for the release this fall! But until then don't forget you can still download my debut single "U make my heart beat" on iTunes. 
I'll be posting pics and progress of the run up to the release of the second single right here throughout september so be sure to check in ;-)

Exams are BORING

This donut looks exactly like the donuts I used to have as a snack in London... every day... for three weeks... in a row
No wonder I gained 5 kilos 
oh well
I could have another one right now!

Quinoa Salad Recipe

Hi guys, yesterday I made my family and I some yummy lunch and because this is such a random blog I decided to post the recipe, just in case you're bored and are interested in making a healthy dish.
This recipe uses Quinoa which is a grain, it tastes a bit like pasta but is gluten free and is comparable to cous cous but with way more protein so perfect for the vegetarianos :-) 


2 cups of Quinoa


With 4 cups of water
Boil and let it simmer for 15 minutes
until the Quinoa has absorbed the water and looks fluffy (ish)



Chop up some veggies you like
I added shallot, sun-dried tomatoes, tomatoes, salad, corn and peas


In a pan, heat up a dash of olive oil and salt, add the shallot and let it cook for 2 minutes.
Then add the cooked (and drained) quinoa and veggies.
When it is all throughly heated, take off heat and add some pesto sauce and herbs of your choice.


Serve as lunch or side dish for dinner


I ate it with some mozzarella which was delish.

but the fun thing is that you can add whatever you like and you can't really go wrong!
Enjoy and let me know how it worked out!

Skaterboys


Sunday my family and I went to "de beParkte oplage" a cute market with all handmade crafty creative stuff like jewelry, paintings, clothing and food. It's close to a skating/bmx rink so we went to check it out and it was amazing what these people could do, and it was fun to see such a mix of ages and levels... 


Random pic of myself but I loved the flowers around this abandoned house, such a beautiful contrast


Anyways I should get back to studying now, have an exam on wednesday... so easily distracted.
Just made a super yummy quinoa salad which I'll share here tomorrow :-)

Happy Weekend!

This week just flew by! It being the first week of finally being back in Belgium and because I have some exams next week it was supposed to be filled with studying (ha yeah right) but of course somehow I just didn't get to that quite yet... (I'm starting today!) 
So what did I do, not much really... just a little of this and that. Met up with friends and went to the belgian seaside for a few days, hung out with family and watched some movies (Planet of the apes, I want a baby ape! Due date, highlarious; and morning glory, super funny).
Here are some random pictures of my week!

Sunflowers on our main shopping street; my mom thinks it's out of place but I love it

Have a great weekend everyone!
