Hugh Laurie & The Copper Bottom Band

When I first heard about Hugh Laurie taking up a singing career, I was a bit sceptic. However, I soon forgot about the scepticism once I listened to his debut album Let Them Talk. When I learned that he was releasing a new album this year, Didn’t It Rain, I was eager to see him…

Rad and Hungry

I’ve been planning on blogging about Rad and Hungry for a very, very long time. There’s just one reason for this: every self-proclaimed office supply geek (e.g. me) should know about the existence of Rad and Hungry because, as their name says, they’re one of the raddest companies out there on the interwebs. If you…

Apéros Bordeaux

If there’s one drink I won’t say no to, it’s a good glass of wine. So, when the lovely Stephanie Duval invited me to the latest edition of Apéros Bordeaux, I couldn’t say no. Apéros Bordeaux could best be described as an after work party hosted by Bordeaux wines at a cool location, for now…

Preparation: Peel the asparagus…

Weekend Blog Awards

I had to pinch myself this afternoon when I found out that I was nominated for the second edition of Weekend Knack’s annual Blog Awards. I had to seriously pinch myself. I remember nominating a couple of blogs myself, but to see myself among those other nominees left me speechless. It’s truly an honor to…

Ycono

We visited Ghent over the weekend which lent the perfect opportunity to visit a few places on my bucket list. One of them was Ycono. Located next to the red-light district, this concept bar offers a mix of coffee, art & design. The coffee list is endless with a number of creative outlets such as…
