Memories




This afternoon, I found some old pictures. I like the one with my father when I was 18 years old and also the one with my grandmother on my father side when I was 22 years old. This is the only picture that I have of myself with my father. I love my father dearly; unfortunately he died in a car accident when I was 21 years old. I never had a chance to say goodbye. My grandmother is currently 98 years old. She is amazing. She is really into crafts and I remember when I was very young and making a doll; she helped me out with the apron for the doll. Back then, she was big into knitting, crochet. I love her dearly.

Welcoming Spring!!







I love the pink chick, so cute. I finally finished my baby blanket which I am really proud of. These are things that inspires me. It is all about colors, yarns, butterflies.

Have a good week!!

XOXO.

Getting to know me

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday.

I found out about this by reading the lovely blog of www.bacwoodsfern.blogspot.com and www.mannland5.com


1. Are you more of a talker or a listener?

It depends.

2. Bra. Underwire or wireless?

Underwire.

3. I wish I was.....?

I happy with what I have. I feel personally that wishing I was something that I am not only brings frustrations in life. I am happy to be in good health. Health is everything in life. I hope it continues that way.

4. The Academy Awards are on tonight..will you watch?

Yes, I love to see what the actors are wearing. I love fashion.

5. Do you put your deodorant on before or after you get dressed?

I have some at home but forget to wear some. So, I don't wear deodorant. I don't like the fact that most of the time; it leaves white traces on clothes. I wear although everyday perfume that I carry in my purse. It is a mood booster. As Chanel said a woman with no perfume has no future.

6. Would you rather do the dishes or clean toilets?

Dishes if I really have to.

7. How much did you weigh at birth?

I have to ask my mum. She told me but I forgot.

8. If you could only buy one thing for the Spring/Summer season..what would it be?

hum! I don't know. Maybe a nice pair of sandals

Take care everyone.

XOXO.

Ceramics created by my mother + picture of myself and doll









Yesterday, a messenger delivered this artwork composed of ceramics created by my mother a long time ago. Brentano Frames in NYC did such a lovely job at framing those ceramics. Now, this new artwork is hanging in our foyer and I am very delighted and happy. I am sure my mother would love to hear that. I will need to hear her thoughts on that. I love my mother very much; I just wished she never got this nasty disease that is ALS. Anyway, thanks for reading. I am also including a picture of the Sonia Rykiel doll; this is all I could get at H&M since everything else was sold out. Also a picture of myself wearing blue eye shadow. I love blue; it is my favorite color and it puts me in a good mood. Now, I am off to the gym.
Have a lovely week!
Take care.
XOXO.
