Hello April! Autum winter stuff out - spring summer stuff in...

You have to be in the right mood to declutter your autumn-winter wardrobe, otherwise you only do it halfway and you might as well don't do it at all.

While bringing out the spring-summer stuff, it was time to have a closer look at some items in my wardrobe.

Some pieces in your wardrobe are simply timeless and you don't have to think about keeping them at all. I was going through the other pile of clothes, which I did not wear last year (or maybe only once) and probably won't wear it again. Such as, for example, my BB jacket with vichy check. I am sensitively allergic to the mohair wool, although it's dear to my heart. However this way I can make someone else happy with it and do justice to this Bellerose classic.

Oh and that fantastic Vanilia dress! I bought this beautiful maxi denim dress for holidays. But it's so much fabric and takes up half a carry-on suitcase, so not exactly a travel light garment. I prefer to opt for a few lighter dresses to take with me. It's par excellence a dress that you can wear all year round, but somehow I don't really wear long dresses at home. Don't ask me why?

Sometimes you just have to be honest with yourself. Some pieces I really love, but they are not me.

So I've listed a woolen BB jacket, a cotton lilac Monki cardigan and Vanilia maxi demin dress on Vinted.

You can find my tiny second hand shop under the name woodwoolwardrobe.

rode linzensoep - eenvoudig recept

Zaterdag 13 april 2024

Henk was een dag met zijn broertjes naar Eindhoven, dus moest ik vandaag zelf koken en aangezien ik geen zin had om boodschappen te doen, trok ik de keukenlade open om de mogelijkheden te inventariseren.

Rode linzen en een pot geroosterde puntpaprika's als basis ingrediënten...

Hier het super eenvoudige basis recept van de linzensoep die ik heb gemaakt met 'wat er nog in huis is'.

Ingrediënten:
350 gram rode linzen
olijfolie
2 uien
teentje knoflook
een pot geroosterde puntpaprika's
tl komijn
tl kaneel
tl kurkuma
tl bladselderij kruiden
1,3 liter water
1 blokje groente bouillon

Fijngesneden uien en knoflook aanfruiten in olijfolie.
Puntpaprika in reepjes snijden en toevoegen en kort roerbakken.
Kruiden toevoegen en de rode linzen er doorheen roeren.
Giet daarna het water in de pan en als laatste het bouillonblokje erbij.

Breng de soep al roerend aan de kook en daarna ongeveer 30 minuten zachtjes laten koken.

Als finishing touch nog een flinke schep crème fraîche erbij, want die had ik nog in de koelkast staan.

Bon appétit!

(dit recept is voor zeker 4 flinke borden soep)
