Gardening You reap what you sow... For this season I wanted to try something different. So, I put some decorative pumpkin seeds into the ground, and soon enough they've taken over the whole planter box, the fence, and some poor lilacs.
Life I've been busy... I've been a bit busy the past week with the little kitten I found in our back garden. I could not find his mama back, nor did I ever spot his brother or sister ever again since the very first time I saw them.
Life Three shots, pop, pop, pop... Morning mist, an empty road, policemen walking along it, searching. And then, three gunshots echoing through the trees. Pop. Pop. Pop. Just like that.
Life Crazy cat lady? Five days, one greenhouse trap, and a whole lot of patience. That’s what it took to rescue a starving kitten from my back garden. What came next shocked me even more than his tiny meows.
Life Am I really cut out for this... Once upon a time, my photos hung on giant billboards in down town Brussels. Now, my phone pings at 2 a.m. with volleyball selfies from co-workers I’ve never met. This is the strange reality of my “day job,” and why I dream daily about trading it in for something that actually makes sense.
Family Patience is a virtue I don't possess... Family secrets don’t announce themselves. They hide in summer houses, in old passenger lists, in DNA results that take forever to arrive. Mine even hides behind a possible link to Kate Winslet. And this is where my search begins.
