by the sea

Last week we went to the seaside and travelled a bit. We were lucky to discover the most perfect beach I've ever been to. The place of wind and golden sun-warmed water, the place of white waves, the place of every-color pebbles and the place of absolute human-less-ness. Later we went to a paradise of kiteboarders, the realm of enormous strawberries and dill and the place of constant sun-thunder-sun-thunder-sun. This little adventure was amazing but I felt absolutely exhausted after it, having spent too much time wave jumping.

My favorite thing in the world has been recovered!

summer so far

I've just returned from a week of getaway to the countryside and I am soon off again. I can say that summer has been good so far. Sun, wind, thunder, sleep mode, long and lazy swimming in the most perfect lake, berries with milk and sugar, mushrooms, future tea flower-meadows, one restless baby, ice-cream, kittens, some ruckus and a complete retro festive feeling. That's what my summer consists of. There are things to be decided, but I am not thinking about them now. I know I will regret it later, but, oh well, it is a well-deserved rest I am having. Hope you're enjoying this wondrousness!

tears for MJ

Chris Brown may be a crap of a boyfriend, but he knows a thing or two about performing and assurances of esteem. This is something seriously amazing. I had to cry as well.

hello, I am a hot-water bottle

This is my new favorite item in our home. We found it in a second-hand store [the very same and my favorite, probably] for only 40 cents. It's the most amazing thing ever AND in perfect working conditon. We were thinking about giving it to our very little relative, but I'm probably keeping it to myself. It will be very practical, as my feet is always freezing when going to bed at cold winter evenings. Can you say CUTE?

project: lace vest

This funny little vest was bought in a second-hand store for about 60 cents. I, of course, couldn't live with it being so simple, so I just sew some [familiar] lace onto it.

Oh, bless him, he's back (guess who?) and he's as good as ever. I know I'm a little late, but I only just saw this video for the very first time. It's really good, although the super-man-flying thing was a bit awkward. But the fact that eminem is back yet again made me almost teary-eyed. I did shout out loud "WHAT?" in a store when I first heard about him collaborating with Rihanna (that seems nothing like him, but what do we know about him, right?), but I suppose people like them have to work together. It's almost inevitable (just as long as he is not collaborating with Miley Cyrus I don't really care). But, hey, he sounds (and looks) great, and as his music had a profound influence on my early life, I really should get my hands on the Recovery for the sake of good old times. Ah, reminiscence...
