John W Golden



New print in the house.

This morning we got our The Enlightened Fireflies Print from John W Golden who has done work for Target and was also featured at Southern Living Magazine. For me this is the perfect after summer print (keeping my summer memories in a jar).

- Oh comely, what a great mag. I think I want that one in my letterbox. Will keep me going on cold winter days.

Mauerpark Berlin






Another big flea market in Berlin is in Mauerpark. This is where the Berlin wall between Prenzlauerberg and Wedding used to be. The market is huge and you can also find a lot of artists here who sell their work.

The market is very busy with a lot of tourists but I didn't find much vintage on offer. People told me it has been different in the past.


- Lovely australian blog about coffee and crafting: Foxs Lane.

food & co


This morning we made a trip to the market to buy veggies for our weekend soup. My friend Kumiko is giving me japanese cooking lessons... I tell you more about it soon!


At the moment our weekdays are really busy and on the weekend I'm tired. So it's wonderful to start the morning with a long  family breakfast but I tell you it's not always easy to wake up Mister kay!!

- Yesterday I got the new SouleMama book Rhythm of  the Family in the mail. I really like it. I know her other books but this one is my favourite .

- Nice french blog CHACHA
enjoy your weekend

bookcover



Still my fav bookcover!! Would love to frame it but then I have to damage the book.

This morning at the yoga class, I wish I had started yoga many years ago. It is a perfect way to grow old graceful & happy.

- I was lucky to win a beautiful print from Darja Charapova (which made my day)

- Rainy days give me graving for sweets.  I love Lindt chocolate with sea salt or Special K rasberry bars... Tell me about your fav snacks???

- bye bye Mister Nicolas Ashford  we all loved your music

have a good week
