Fracas Noir || Susanne Waldau - te Brake I swear to tell the truth as I know it…

There comes a time in a woman’s life when she realises that everything she learned about being being sweet, well mannered and polite was all just a myth. I remember the first days in school that pretty much shaped the rest of my school years. The girls were all sitting politely in their chairs, raising [...]

Yesterday, I wrote a post on male abilities between the sheets. If the male voice was shining with its absence, women were more forthcoming.
One in particular, C, wrote this absolutely brilliant comment on her experience with the Swiss, which I gather was in fact a singular encounter. Now the Swiss, like the Belgians, have an [...]

As a self-proclaimed, autodidact mistress and lover to many men… Oh, yes there was something juicy that made you choke on the morning coffee! Excellent! Keep reading…
…last night, as custom is in our household, I was sitting with my laptop in bed reading my favourite Swedish online magazine. One article, that caught my attention, exclaimed [...]

A few days ago I decided, in a rash decision I must admit, to put my blog offline. This was in response to certain events that for various reasons shall remain undisclosed. However, I soon realized that this was a decision I would come to regret. Primarily because my blog has become somewhat of my [...]

I am so happy it’s Friday. I’m looking forward to a weekend of nothing but utter bliss. It’s been an intensive week, at least for a woman with a 2 month old son. But things are also starting to shape up. My routine is finally in place. Early mornings around 6 am, 1 hour at [...]

I wanted to continue writing about my Copenhagen trip but my attention got diverted elsewhere. To where you draw a line on what is considered self autonomy in a relationship and what is not. Should all decisions be made jointly and if not which decisions can safely be considered your own to make?
I’ve always [...]

I love long walks in the forest, clearing my head from all the noise, sound bites, impressions, information….all the things our society is throwing at us in constant stream. It was just me, Reinout and Buddy as Victoria and Cecile are away for the weekend. The first 10 minutes was glorious, the fresh air hitting [...]

The house rules in our family are pretty clear and simple. They are applicable to everyone, but of course they are most difficult to adhere to by the youngest member (so far) of our family. Priority one is tidiness. I can’t stand a mess, although being in the latter stage of my pregnancy, I have [...]

The best with maternity leave, pre-baby arrival, is that you can sleep in late. So it didn’t really bother me to stay up until 4 am. I was finishing off the Reapers by John Connolly. For the first time, having read all of his 9 or so books, I felt disappointed. Like an anti-climax having [...]

“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace” - Jimi Hendrix

Frankly I don’t know how to start this post. Just that I have an overwhelming urge to write.  Typically I’m far better in making myself understood through writing than orally. But for once, even my hands seem to [...]
