A week of Saturdays and the end of a year

Having a week off is so great...but not having any plans and just do what you would like to do is such luxury. We decided to have "a week of Saturdays" and do all things we love to do on the weekends, like sleeping in, reading, crafting, going out for a coffee, to the museum, having afternoon naps, cook and eat good food. It has been such a good week so far....and I could have a whole month of Saturdays : )The weather was beautiful on Monday, the sun was shining and...

The licence to knit

I remember when I was in year 5 I could choose between crafting class in which you learned how to knit and sew and in which you seriously made a sewing "drivers licence" (! ) and arts class in which you could paint and work with all sorts of materials like wood and papers and in which we went out in the park with our teacher to find inspirations and wouldn't just sit on a table with our needles. It seemed so much cooler and I loved it. My mom used to work in a crafting...

quiet days

The last couple of days have been quiet, which was very relaxing and nice. My parents live on the country side and sometimes when I sit in my room after a while I am realizing how just super quiet it is compare to our apartment in Hamburg and all you maybe hear are the bells from the church every 15 minutes.We were reading a lot the last days, watched the Royal Tenenbaums, played board games, went out for a walk, catched up with family and friends....and of course had...

More Snow

After a very long car ride of many hours standing in the snow we finally got to my parents place to spend the holidays with them. I must say for a view hours waiting in the traffic jam because of snow chaos and not moving more than 5km within 4hours I started asking myself if I am really sure about my love to snow.Well, this morning when I woke up and looked out of my window I thought, yes I am : ) The sun was shining the whole morning and I went out for a little walk....

Snow

We had a bit snow the other day but since two days it is really snowing...In a way that trees, cars and everything which doesn't move -at least for a while- is covered with a nice snow "coat". When I woke up this morning I could already feel and see the special brightness in the room which just appears when it is snowing outside. Everything seems so calm and so special. I really like it and I am happy that it seems like there will be a white Christmas this year. I got...

Something to read

The darker nights of the year are not just good to eat cookies and drink tea - they are perfect to hang out on the couch and read a lot. I got my hands on some nice magazines and books this week. When I get a magazine I tend to read it with starting from the very end and working myself through it until the the first page. I am most of the times so excited that I usually examine the magazine by briefly looking through all the different articles...stop at some images...

A Monday evening

fJust a week and a bit until Christmas. We had the first snow today..how nice and surprising it was when I looked out the window and the flakes where dancing down from the sky..And how nice it is to have a quiet evening at home.A nice package from my boyfriends family reached us today with some gifts for Christmas and also some Panforte (for which we were secretly waiting for) made by his mum. It is so good with all the fruits and almonds in it. Ah we love it. She also...
