red









a red dress should be very simple, worn in, it's color a little bit muted.

for nearly every film i made something red, now i would like to have a dress for myself.

i can't help it, i like how that color stands out!

thank you dear D.!

winterlight




this morning and minus 12° C. soft winterlight on my rooms wall and L's.
finally an opportunity to show the carpet i brought from romania and the shoes. we both really love to wear them when at home, even Lou who never ever wanted to wear anything on her feet inside.




i was planning to post about the beautiful romanian handmade garments/embroideries i saw during my short visit but i have been in such a rush the few hours i had on my own so my pictures turned out bad and they are hard to edit so meanwhile i'll post this link international wardrobe

have a wonderful fourth of advent.

gingerbread




my first gingerbread dough ever. our first self made gingerbreadhouse together.
the house collapsed once but now it is stable, Lou made the bed and the table that is hiding in the backyard.

like the little gingerbreadmen looking out of the window, we are all waiting for snow, this morning there have been some very shy little flakes.




some of the beautiful gingerbread i brought from romania

Romania





a film studio in bucharest, some days before a big party was held and apparently nobody found the time to clear up the beautiful handmade dishes until today. they rested under a green blanket.





one can even find beauty in the making of a commercial film shooting here.

i am looking forward to see some of the real city tomorrow before i am going back home.

i nearly forgot how invigorating another culture could be, i have to confess i am completely enthusiastic and lunatic!
