Oh my, oh my, where did the inspiration go? I've been busy being busy in real life so to speak, and have had no time or energy for the blog. I've been cuddling Charlie and going for walks in the woods, reading 1Q84 and wishing for it to never end, continuing my hunt for a reasonably priced Italian class (and deciding to go for private tutoring instead, at least for the time being), making a hugh batch of Caponata, finishing one dress and starting on another, working on my C.V and enjoying the unexpected but oh so welcome spring weather we've been having. Last weekend, I went back to my beloved Berlin, which was... cold and great. I spend my time strolling down my old streets, hugging my friends and I went back to my old job to see my ex co-workers and kids. Seeing my old class was so wonderful and I really had the most amazing time with my kids. When it was time to go back home, however, I was strangely relieved. I felt so good coming back to Italy and so sure that this is the place for us right now. Even when my boss offered me my old job back, it felt like the easiest thing in the world to turn it down. Needless to say, this kind of gave me the little extra boost I needed to really start planning for the next couple of months and I'm very excited to see what the future holds.
If I haven't been giving my blog much love lately, I've been putting more effort into my Pinterest page. Feel free to check it out! I happen to know that the coral coloured shoes with cut-outs and laces are on their way home to me as we speak. Andrea is the most amazing person in every single way, but he hates buying gifts for people because he feels that he can never find the right things. I, however, know that this isn't true. For my 30th birthday, he very secretly ordered a Singer heavy duty (that is now one of my best buds) from the U.S. Needless to say, I almost fainted when I came home from work and found it on our kitchen table. Now, how's that for gift finding?! Anyways, when I found these shoes and very innocently pointed out that it's my birthday in less than a month, we both agreed that these would be the perfect birthday gift for yours truly. Very pleased with that deal, I must say, and so is Andrea.
Today, a friend of ours is arranging a market for small designers, all DIY & handmade and of course, right up my alley. Looking forward to that!
Have a lovely Sunday!
