Our neighbors with the cool logo dismantled their main crane. Two workers were high up in the sky to remove the nails from part of the construction which was taken down by another crane. Without any safety fuses or ropes. Nothing! How brave!

Red Velvet Whoopies
My husband is the "chef" in our home. I never cook. But every once in a while I get into the mood to bake something. From the moment I saw these red velvet whoopies I knew I wanted to try to make them. While shopping for the ingredients at my Asian grocery store, my hands Read article…
Trees popping buds
As I said in the mini-interview in Llamas' Valley (page 18-19), one of the things I like best about spring, are the trees popping buds. Living on the 1st floor of Studio Sapique, I have the best view on the tree branches and the buds of one of the trees in the garden. In the Read article…

Bompas & Parr work with jelly ever so often, but take Read article…
Inspector Gadget
I couldn't care less about most gadgets. Maybe that's why this tiny green thingie was well hidden in my kitchen drawer. Until I tried it. And now I'm hooked! This Vacuvin Citrus Peeler is super easy for peeling oranges or grapefruits. And it's best asset: no more yellow discoloration of your finger nails!
Pantone Stamps
These Pantone cakes by Griottes are the exact reason why I'm currently redesigning joelix.com. Well the design is ready, but the behind-the-scenes part has to be built from scratch. I need to be a bit more patient until I can show you bigger images in stead of these tiny stamp sized images like the ones Read article…
