Never mind the critics...I like it a lot!

In the week end I made a much needed chocolate, ginger & hazelnut cake and I knitted a cable hat,
I saw it a while ago in these lovely blogs: here and here (pattern from Linda LaBelle).
How is your Monday so far? I think we are going to bake a lemon drizzle cake today...
Oh yes very much needed in this grey and cold day.

the bunny we love the most

Half term holidays started today, we have ten days "to relax". 
I'm trying to find fun ways to make her write and read without  make it a burden
(sometimes I feel that the education system expects too much from little people...).
We are big fans of Miffy in this home, we have a little collection of Miffy's stuff,
it is such a simple and stylish character, a good way to instill some "sense of design" to little kids
...he he don't you think?

Now we are off to the local bookshop to buy more Miffy's books ; )
Have a lovely weekend.

The baby clouds joined the Circus, thank you Morgane!

( I will be randomly post for a while, we are house hunting, since it seems that it takes quite a long time
to find one, we need to downsize and move to a smaller rented house...bear with me...thank you! ).

oh memories

It's been ages since I started to make an album of photos for Anita and I only selected
some of the digital pictures I'd like to print (it took me years!).
I wanted to share this one with you, I shot it while we were on holiday in Spain three years ago.

Photo Albums I like: this, this,this, this and this.

what's in my bag

Here's what's in my bag (quite boring I have to admit)
I always carry with me, after I got stuck in London's tube a couple of times,
some sort of lavender stuff ,very soothing in case of panic or bad odours!
Umbrella, because with the English weather you never know...
Then I have water, mobile, and camera,
a book or some knitting projects.
I usually carry two bags, a small one with the content you see pictured and a big carry all
for the rest and the shopping.

To play along: DOS Family and here

Happy Sunday!

ooo

Thinking of summer enough of winter.
I'm working on new projects (watch my shop, relatively soon, new things in).

The heating is fixed, warmth is back but the bill was painful!  :  (

Ts

Delicious and smell "oh so good" teas from Spain.
Thank you so much Anna and thanks for the pendant too and for the choc, that it's long gone!

(My husband forgot to check the oil in the heating system - yes, we have an obsolete and rather crazy heating system - first, we run out of oil and second, it broke down as you can't forget to fill it up!
....sorry Daniele, I had to tell : ) could it be my fault because I didn't check on him?
never trust a forgetful husband!).
I'm freezing now, SIGH!
