Food addict....

Jep I am a food addict. I love to cook and bake and when we are having friends over for diner I am cooking from the early morning till diner time. I love to make cupcake's (cinnamon swirls are my favorite), creme brulee, canneloni... But I also love to eat. So over the years I put on some weight. Not that it was a big problem. For 27 years I was really skinny, size less then zero, but I could eat everything without getting bigger. I was really glad when I finally got some curves.
But now I am having a big problem with my feet and back. Yesterday I went to see the doctor and now I have to go to physiotherapy and I have to lose a lot of weight..... I know I know there are much worser things and it isn't the end of the world, but it is going to be hard for a food addict like me. So now you will have read about me and my food-addiction and trying to lose weight also. Poor you. :)
But also a bit good news. We went to a carboot-sale on sunday and I found some love things.

Thanks for being a follower.

That's all for today!! Have a wonderfull day!

A good score....

As I told you already in my intro....I love fleamarkets!
Yesterday we've had a very lazy sunday. Nothing in the agenda, so we could spend our day just the way we wanted... And there was a big carboot-sale at the Geffense Plas.
There were about 200 sellers! The sun was shining, so it was really perfect! This was heaven on earth for me. At least I thought for a little moment.  There were many traders and people who were really trying so sell junk that even the dump wouldn't take. Some of them asked the grand prize for their old stuff. In the shops you would get it even cheaper..... First I found a new book by Stephen King for only 4 euro. And a little card with a painting of Betty Boop. A great vintage bag for my ice-skates and a cool sixties handbag.
And there it was....The dress. I was love at first sight... Drooling... I passed it, walked back.... Asked for the price... It was cheap.... More drooling.... It was really an old one and I got it really cheap. When I was waiting for my change I was looking next to me.... Shoes..... Very cool shoes.... My foot was already slipping in one of them.... It fits.... Ow nice..... And also very cheap!
My "new" dress....
My sweet shoes                              
 I am so happy with that dress! When we went back to our car I found a last great item. Nah, it were three pair.... Some very cool old-fashioned high heels!
Me is so happy now. :D

Tomorrow I will post some of my great dresses who unfortunately don't fit me and I have to let them go...

Sweet dreams!
