I am so confused by “walking in the wind for fun or exercise.” Haha! My favorite section in there is the one on “cosiness,” but that’s probably because I’m currently trapped in a Midwest (northern hemisphere) winter!

dry witted, woodworker Harrison Ford is all time. thanks for the distraction!
Haha uitwaaien –>’walking in the wind’ is a bit literal. It’s more like ‘taking a walk in nature to clear your mind’. Most of the time people use this verb if they are going to the sea.
double cleansing is the best.
give essence a go, too!
I am always so excited to see a new one of these. Thanks for the lovely distractions you curate them perfectly!!! Also happy blog birthday!
lovely as always!
Great and thoughtful distractions, I bookmarked almost each and every one. :)
