sunday post meme pictureThe Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance toย  share news. A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share what is coming up on your blog for the week ahead.

Last weekend I was on a small vacation with my boyfriend. We visited the city of Maastricht, which is about as far as you can go and stay in the same country (which still isn’t really far). We had lots of fun, but there was some rain one day and we stayed at the hotel rom mostly. So I finished 2 books that weekend.

And today is my birthday! Virtual birthday cake for everyone!

Yesterday my mom and her boyfriend visited to celebrate my birthday. And yesterday evening we celebrated my aunt her birthday (who’s birthday is two days after mine). Today my mom and her boyfriend are heading back home again and my boyfriend and I are visiting his parents to celebrate both his mom’s birthday (who’s birthday was earlier this week) and my birthday. So it’s a bit of a busy weekend with lots of birthdays.

I got some awesome presents. I got an otomatome from my boyfriend, it’s a weird looking instrument which makes a really funny sound. My sister baked a banana poke cake for me, which was really good, she didn’t gave me a present.. I got a red skirt from my mom and her boyfriend, which I already mentioned a few weeks ago, because I got it early and she made a chocolate cake for me. Did I mention I love cake? She also got me a lot of new hammocks for our rats, a new duvet cover and a dres sboy (it’s a metal contraption on which to put your clothes, so they don’t lie strown all over my room). My boyfriends parent are going to give me a diabolo and poi, I have no idea if this is the correct translation to be honest.Google translation says it’s the same word in english as in Dutch, I don’t really believe it. I will post some pictures later today hopefully.

  1. Happy Birthday, Lola!! I’m so excited that you got WISH ME TOMORROW and scared too- *EEEEEP. All of the books you got this week look great, actually. And please post a pic of your rats in their hammock! They are so cute ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Thanks Karen! I was so excited when I got the e-mail from netgalley saying they had approved my request to read and review Wish Me Tomorrow! I also signed up for the blog tour.
