For the last round of the cookie baking competition I made gevulde speculaas. I wasn't entirely pleased with it, it was too hard around the edges and too dry, but it still earned me second place. 🤷🏽♀️ I have some spijs (filling similar to marzipan) left so I might give it another go later this week.

I saw something similar recently in Belgium, so pretty.

I finally finished the octopus, because my little nephew was born on the second of October. Finally meeting him this Sunday. 😊👶🏻🐙

I had another workshop today, this time mixed media painting / collage. I didn't expect to like it that much but I really did, I was just going with the flow, very unlike me. And now I have this musical grasshopper situation.

With colleagues we went to do a stained glass workshop. Really fun! Not so easy and it takes a lot of time, but eventually I got the hang of it. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get it done completely, but I'll be going back to the workshop to finish it up another day.

For the second round of the cookie baking competition I made Indonesian spekkoek (spekuk in Indonesian I think?). I was so stoked to see how nicely the layers turned out when I cut it. It took a long time to make but very pleased with the results. Recipe: www.laurasbakery.nl/spekkoek/

Recently got into Minecraft (I tend to be late to the party) and made this abutment and mill that I'm pretty pleased with.

Een mooie vlinder die ik zag vlak nadat ik mijn haar had bevrijd van een plakplant.

Stekjes update. Degene die er het best uitzag is inmiddels al bezig aan blad nummer 5. 🥳 De stekjes die maar geen wortels wilden maken zijn uiteindelijk toch gaan wortelen. Op de pot gezet en de bladeren zijn helemaal geel geworden, maar nieuwe bladeren zijn al op komst. Mogelijk lukken dus alle 5 😊

Negen jaar samen (eigenlijk vandaag maar Agus' verstandskies wordt vandaag getrokken) dus zijn we naar Florijn gegaan voor een "high beer". Drie gangen eten, allemaal een verrassing, met bijpassend biertje. Was vergeten te zeggen dat ik geen vlees eet maar stiekem wel blij mee uiteindelijk. 😅🤤

Second batch of alfajores done. The second picture is a side by side comparison. The picture I posted last week was taken was while the chocolate had not set yet. The next day it looked all bubbly and had lost all gloss. This time I relented and took the time to temper the chocolate and it paid off!

Super proud of how the alfajores turned out! We have yet to taste them because it is 23:30 now and we're dying to go to bed, but they look fantastic. 😁

My previous attempt at making dulce de leche was semi-successful: it tasted alright but was a bit too firm, it didn't acquire the typical brown color for some reason, and it crystallized a bit in the fridge. The girlfriend of my fiancé's father gave me the tip that you can also make it simply by ...

Someone left these in the hallway to take home for free. Don't mind if I do! 😱

I do lab stuff. Sometimes I take photos of the lab stuff.
Here's some pictures of the Akta (for protein purification), a recent SDS-PAGE that I broke the corner off of, some little poop bacteria colonies, and some carrot leaves in tubes.

Voor het eerst succesvol stekjes gemaakt. Net verpot, hopelijk blijven ze het goed doen. 🤞🏻

My first sewing project of a baby tshirt didn't go too well, so we took a step back and made this (it holds plastic bags that you can pull out from the bottom).

Traveling back from Linkin Park at the Gelredome. Was a little sceptical at first with the new singer and all, but man, was it nice. Sweating all over and a sore throat from the screaming, as it should be. Support act Spiritbox was amazing as well. #linkinpark #gelredome
