Things I love Thursday



It's really hard for me today to find reasons to love the world... but here we go!
Today I am loving:

  • Progress and andvancement in medicine. And availability of medical care. We can go to hospitals, go out and buy antibiotics, go to the doctor and talk to him. It's not normal in other parts of the world. I feel very lucky to have all this possibilities available to me, even if I am used to this and don't appreciate it enough.
  • People who take care of me. Bf being the first who comes to my mind. He didn't think twice of going to buy me medicines and food, even if it was raining and he was on his bike. I can never thank him enough.
  • Amélie (the movie)! I saw some scenes last night (they were showing a TV re-run) and every time I see this movie, I realize how much beauty and magic we can find in our lives, as long as we are willing to see them.
  • Pistachio pesto, and the colleague who gifted it to me. I loved every bite of the pasta I made with it, and bf too. I could live on pesto for the rest of my life...
  • Buying new furniture and putting it in place. I spent last weekend just moving furniture and hanging pictures, and I am very satisfied with the results!
  • Planning for the future, in a way that is both dreamy and very practical. I love come up with possible scenarios, and study a way to make them real!

I did well, didn't I? Lots of love to everybody!!!

Taking Stock

Image
  After a long hiatus, I decided to start writing again... I don't expect anyone to really be reading, but I just love so much going through my old entries, it's a sort of treasured diary. The image above was taken on April 25th (bank holiday here), during our bike ride at the Aqueducts park in Rome. Such a beautiful day! So much has changed since last time I wrote here, I don't know where to start. So I start by taking stock! Making:  eggplant pesto. As requested by my girl, who loved it last summer. I stopped doing it during the winter, as eggplant were not so good, but husband found some nice ones and as I write they are in the oven. Drinking : water and more water. The sparkling one, thanks! Watching : videos (youtube and instagram) on home and food organizing, fitness, and, of course, makeup. Love Love Love Johnny Ross ! Reading : Minimalism , by Gwyneth Snow. Will need to start applying the suggestions, though! Enjoying : working from home 3 days a week. Makes me even

BDIB - Arm Party!

Image
  This is my second time participating in the Bloggers Do it better series.  This time, the theme is " Arm Party ". And I am glad Kristina had this idea, because it pushed me to take out and wear my bangles...  I wore this outfit - it's an exact repetition, so I didn't take pictures.  And here is the arm Party! I bought the six striped bangles during my trip to Corsica, 20 years ago. They are six like the letters that compose my name.The brown one is from a store in Buffalo. The thin one is even older, it's about 25 years old! A classmate gave me a bunch of them (it was the 80's and Madonna was just starting to get famous) and I somehow managed to keep this one through the years. Now I want to start wearing all the other bangles I have, too!
