reading light

 Here is my life in a bookshelf; Movable Marriage and London.

Christmas lights are welcome to stay for the whole winter.

Someone else has just discovered the light of reading.

last day of school

It was the last day of school before Christmas.
My son shared his hot chocolate and candy canes with me to celebrate.
Note to self:
It is the small pleasures you share 
that make Christmas.

winter of my memories

I was looking through photos for a project and stumbled op on this one. When I think of winter, this is the photo that I reminisce. What does your winter memory look like?

gingerbread tradition

Every year, since my son was one,
 we have made gingerbread cookies
 with my son´s friends. 
It is a nice way to ask people to come over. 
I have refined the tradition, 
so that each step is made with different set of friends.
The second evening 
I stayed up late baking the last cookies from the plentiful dought. 
That evening my son did not feel sleepy and helped me.
 These decorations tasted good
 and were really nice looking as well.

having breakfast

This morning
I wanted to read my book and have a slow long breakfast.
My husband wanted to sleep and my son wanted to build a den.

Christmas decorations make me happy


 Colours, lights and glitter are one of the reasons I like Christmas. 
Seeing decorations makes me naively happy.

glitter and rust

 We visited the Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park.
It was a surreal experience with glitter and rust.
My son loved it.
