Sometimes one wonders, why people are not entitled to hibernation holidays … imagine keeping the bed warmer for longer, eating less and after saving the energy and nerves you wake up feeling very alive and willing to take on big things again…

Les 7 Doigts de la Main – Psy.

Not your typical circus. It’s contemporary, with amazing story-line, scenography, performances and music. Oh…I loved it! My 8 year old loved it. We think more people should see it.

Beautiful.

I’m glad I’m not.

Did you hear about this film, did you had a chance to see it? Did you love it? We saw it last year at the Barbican. I cried, I fell in love, I even bought the soundtrack. We’re hoping for the DVD, but in a meantime – the BFI is showing it this weekend. Woohoo! I’m (most likely) going to cry again and leave the theatre in a somewhat amazing state. It’s a beautiful story, beautiful animation and music is just bewitching. See it and enjoy.

And have a lovely (and special to some of us weekend!

a few beautiful finds…

and uplifting, and wonderful. A little bit worrying, it’s like this big big finger pointing something out to all of us, but still -  for now snow is fun. Lots of fun.

we named him Happy. There were soooo many big and small snow persons around. All white, individual and all handmade Amazing. There will be lots of wandering snowmen in the woods tonight…

And lots of drying mittens, gloves, shoes too…

Winter is nice. White winter is even nicer. Thank you snow!

Zook will be up for grabs from tomorrow…

Why do all good things come to an end? To make space for the new ones

Wishing you all an uplifting year: live, love, create and enjoy it all!

This notebook (and a bookmark)  is just …what’s the word? Pretty in every way and is gonna be used and treasured! Thank you Loreta so so much! I love it all!

It was a swap we had and as Loreta still hasn’t received my parcel yet (even though we sent almost at the same time), I can only give you a tiny sneak peak for now…

More pics soon, I hope!
