Welcome to the brainwaves of Diana - freak-on-the-way - Van Loo
Hopefully you enjoy my thoughts and want to walk with me on the freakin' way of life, faith and all that! I am told I'm a freak and the works of my grey cells are way too freaky to be taken serious, so beware :-D

chirstmas dinner for the family

Now this is how it's going to look!



Today I had a nice and busy day of thinking about a Christmas dinner for our little family of now 10. First get into count our little kids, and the even younger kids of my little brother, so: no fancy tasts, no surprises in taste or texture, but almost normal food. Well, to be honest, I did fancy in the thinking, and I really do believe the kids will love this!




The meat is somewhat sweet, the three kinds of veggies are sweet too, and the dessert is just an old jummy typical Dutch "vlaflip-grandma-Karsijns"
we don't accept any more bookings ;-D
Take care, and have a very blessed Christmas, and some super holidays!

H'm

Well... it's almost a year now since I've blogged anything... about anything...

maybe I just don't have enough thoughts...


I really do think that I just have this blog in the vain believe that someone outthere is willing to read it. To really have the desire to know what I think. Too bad I don't think that much, hey.


So, from now on (here's another promise) (again) I will just write down what I think (yeah, little secret: I DO think once in a while!) because I'm the only one who is interested, and sometimes it's just fun to look back and discover the sheer fact that I really DO think. Therefore I am. Proof.

Continental Art

Ever heard of Continental Art???

Just some weeks ago, after I tried all I could think of to get to talk to YwaM Europe, but everything bounced back with more questions for me, and less answers to solve those big questions, I had a wild idea: let's send Mr. Continental Arts an email, talk about our even wilder YwaM plans, and see what I am able to learn (usually I'm not that teachable)

Now, thát's interesting! Try to get your nerves out of the way, act like you are crazy, because the known world already is aware of that, and be brave! All sorts of funny, never thought of, surprising and exactly what you needed, things explode in your face.... The only thing for me to do was: catch!

Now I'm into that Arts Community, trying to get into how things work, to understand fellow artists, and even better: finding all kinds of cool workshops and courses! Finally I found some like minded souls out there: trying to express themselves, music, visual arts, christian.... and they love to help each other to become a better artist. I love this.

And the best part is yet to come, but that's something for another time.... I still have to be accepted to work things out.... here in our hometown.... yeah, has to do with music, singing, dancing, big stages, big production, kids..... (and I sneaky dream of helping to set this up in more places than just Dordrecht.... or the Netherlands.... and maybe our Continental Arts Centre is also dreaming this..... (pss: maybe our Boss is dreaming this with us too....))
