A good morning


This morning I woke up pretty early
The house was so silent
outside
really chilly air
clear deep blue sky
sunlight all around
Apart from the chaos
of lego pieces left by E.
(It's always"Works in progress"in the living room)
evrything was just
simply perfectly ordinary
Just another
E X T R A O R D I N A R Y
DAY


I've been thinking a lot about
all these late occurences all around
and now I really want to live
finding the extraordinary
in every day
(I told many times I know
but at least I want to try)

Be Happy



Laugh when you can
Apologize when you should
and let go of what you can't change
Forgive quickly
Take chances
Give everything
L I F E is too S H O R T
to be anything but
H A P P Y

Some sad occurences
(not concerning me or my family directly)
made me think how short and unpredictable
life is
and how it's really true
that we have to enjoy every single day
even ordinary days

It's over


Summer is almost over
Long days are over
Days are still really hot
but as soon as the sun sets
the air gets chilly.
Yesterday we had dinner outside
on the terrace but this evening
all of us agreed that it was better to stay inside.
There's already some hints of autumn in the air
dry leaves falling, chilly air, perfect clear blue sky
even if we go on wearing summer clothes.
It's coming. As every year.

Soon


These hot last August days
don't make us think of Autumn for sure
After a rainy and cold August
Hot Summer again
But we are getting nearer and nearer
to the beginning of school

September looks just
round the corner

Hem ljuva hem

Casa dolce Casa
I feel good
to be at home again
after 3 weeks away

I like travelling
but this feeling of
being at home
is really something special

p.s. I found this wall decor '"this is your place" here (click)
and it's sold here (click)

Soon


Last day in Sweden
Some more shopping
I would like to have enough
space in my
suitcase for all these
cute things to decorate my house
But I already have
to arrange the transport of my
new mail box




Let´s fly



On Tuesday we went to visit
a museum
(click here to read more)
inside a declassified
Swedish Air Force bunker
A thrilling aviation experience for E.

I ♥ YOU


Soon
it´s time to leave
ad go back to our routine
Work for the two of us
and school for E.
I wish we could have
some more days
like these







One more try


Sunny and warm weather on Sunday
M. & E. tried again to catch some fish
and in the end
they caught two small fish:
a delicious meal for the cat


Time is running out
and these are our last days here
Soon it´s time
to go back to Italy

I ♥



We ate so many blueberries
in these days
you cannot even imagine
A supply of antioxidant

Gone fishing



When we arrived
M. decided he had to catch
a BIG FISH
before we would leave again
So every day more or less
it´s fishing time

E. is not very fond of
worms and sticky , slimy fish
indeed
But he follows his dad anyway

One more try


At the moment
the size of the fish M. caught
is more or less the one of this
big fish
he bought as a bait
(that he is not using at all)

Some more days
to try
I doubt he will succeed
We will see






Kantarelle Mania

Kantarelle season
It looks like it´s so easy
just to go in the wood
and pick up so many
mushrooms
you cannot even imagine
in Italy.
I wonder how Italian
mushrooms fans would react.

Now it´s kantarelle mania
M.´s dad found plenty in the wood
and we are going to bring some home
in Italy






Football match

Childhood memories



Last year M. fixed
his old rusty bicycle that
he cyckled so many times
in his childhood
having so much fun
But E. is more interested in PS & Wii
than rusty bicycles
New generation kids!





Maybe it´s too early
to imitate
Dad´s acrobatics
Let´s wait some
more years

20 degrees OUT and IN

Today we were supposed
to take a swim
at M.´s sister & boyfriend house
But once there the rainy weather
was not really inviting
to jump in the pool

E. insisted on taking a swim
and M. even if he doesn´t like
cold water
like a real Swedish
jumped bravely into the water
E. followed

In the endE. had his
Nordic experience
and realized how cold
it can be 20 degrees...
and how "cool" it is
to be a Swedish


p.s.
A good lunch
T H A N K
YOU






Mmmm I adore


Today I learned
how to bake
Kanelbullar
Delicious
I´m not sure the result
in Italy will be same as
the one M.´s mum got today
We will see
