I've finally updated my blog's publishing software. I'm now on Movable Type 5 just like Zachary Quinto - as I would give a rats ass. I do dislike this about big commercial companies. Like if it really matters that I'm on the same platform as Zachary Quinto and Britney Spears.
I also have this cool new feature that's replacing my comments - I'm so so sorry but I couldn't save all my comments. Echo is a mini forum and now I can interact with you. If you have a question about my blog post we can discuss it in Echo. Click on the 'Let's Discuss' icon under a post and it will take you to the entry page where we can discuss matters. I love it!
Tomorrow I'll have heating in my TV room, so watch out for some TV room updates :o) |

Just a quick post to let you know that The Yvestown Shop is open again. After receiving so many e-mail and so many orders asking me to come back, I just couldn't resist. I also really missed it. To celebrate, 5% off on all your orders :o) Thanks so much for your support.
I'll be upgrading my blog publishers software tomorrow so maybe there might be some difficulties viewing my blog for a little while. Just that you know. |

It was September 2009 when Nina and I met Ingrid for the first time and on that same day Nina gifted me this plate, known in my home as 'The Nina Plate'. I've been meaning to photograph it and send it to Nina, to show off, for ever and never got around to do it as 1. I've been living in my car for the past few months and 2. because of bad lightning.
Today I got my hopes up as the sun is out and she makes my kitchen so bright and shiny. That's why I devote a blog post to 'The Nina Plate' and show off my new kitchen cupboard doors I'm dead happy with. Later today they'll have glass too as I can now just grab everything inside without actually opening the doors, but you can't see that.
I'm off to play around in the kitchen a little more. And also in my study as we found some amazing old tiles for my fireplace ... oh and ... crap the sun is out, I must go outside.
Will be back more often, I promise and try to keep away from the car ;o) |

Happy 2010!!
This is what I did over the holidays.
I'll be writing, telling about color numbers, places to buy and showing more during the week as I'm still unpacking and painting. But damn I love my study so far. |

I'm in the list again with a shy 12 votes - one from myself ;o) I'm never much for lists or groups but it's quite cool to be acknowledged. So if you'd like to vote for me or if you like to know who I have voted for, you can do that here and here.

East, west, North or South, Winter or Summer I want to thank you all for your support and kindness throughout 2009 and wish you and your loved ones a very merry Christmas and a wonderful 2010.
With love, Yvonne xox |
