Yesterday Patrick dropped by in Heemskerk. The plan was to visit a metal Paganfest in the “Melkweg” (Amsterdam). Now I know that heavy metal is not really my thing… but as I always say, you have to try everything (and keep amazing people :P).
Anyway, Patrick arrived early. He wanted to visit “De Bazaar” in the town of Beverwijk. “De Bazaar” is a huge marketplace where you can buy almost anything.
After some coffee we went in the direction of Beverwijk.
We walked around “De Bazaar”, amazed again about what there is all for sale. I wanted to visit the Asian market “Toko”, a place where you can buy the nicest things for cooking. I bought some herbs and stuff I needed. I also bought some very nice rice bowls (see later in this article).
I also bought a very big Chinese fan (such a fan made of paper). Apart that I really like those, it is in a way for Marion. In my bedroom I have not really something to cover the window. And although my apartment is on the 4th floor and there is no way that someone can look into my bedroom, Marion feels a bit uncomfortable to change clothes there. So I will place this huge Chinese fan in front of the window… I think it even will look very nice.
After “De Bazaar” Patrick and I went to my house for a beer.
We took the train to Amsterdam. After all Patrick also wanted to be able to drink some beers. When we arrived at “De Melkweg” the Paganfest already started. And I already knew that this would not be exactly my style of concert. Music may be hard and strong. Also voices may be strong. But it should be singing and not just making some not further understandable and undefined making of noises.
But I have to admit, one band I saw I liked in a way. I mean metal in the Dutch language? And that I could determine that it was Dutch meant it was understandable (and with that meaning something… at least in my opinion :P). So yes, I liked this metal band called “Heidevolk”. For the rest.. ah well, everyone his/her own taste. And I will not deny that I was happy that we left in time. But I have been there!!!!
On our way we dropped by KFC and that is always something good. As I already said more then once… I love KFC!
Back at my home, Patrick and I had some more beers. We had some good talks. I always enjoy my conversations with Patrick…
But as always, time flies…. and the day was gone before we knew it.
Anyway, the new ricebowls I bought yesterday? I wanted to try them today and I made myself some nice Lemon Chicken
Hmmm, maybe it was not that clever to make the picture of the ricebowl on a dark background. But it will be clear enough.
BTW eating with chopsticks goes better and better, but I am not confident enough yet to have a meal public with them 🙂
As long you had a good time, Robje. And I really like the rice bowls you bought. Maybe we can have when I am home again some kind of nice Asian meal. Can we use the chopsticks again. I find it so sweet that you learning to use them 🙂
It was a really nice and well spend day.
And you really put the Rice bowl to good use. Looks very Tasty!
And as much as our music taste has a lot incommen, it differs also in a lot of ways. And that is a good thing!
As for the PaganFest. The music was nice, but a bit to calm.
So i wil make up for that next weekend at the KillFest in Atak 😀
Some real good oldskool TrashMetal (LOL)
