Easter

Last year I was so exited about Easter, I followed trends, I prepared everything for a long weekend with the family, l took pictures if my beautiful painted eggs in the sun...

Today is windy, snowy...perfect weather to spend the day in bed watching The Life of Brain. My exact cup of tea :)

Christmasy in March

There's still a wintery feeling in the air. It's almost as cold as on Christmas and just to hold on a bit more on these positive mood I had the brilliant idea to bake a pie that smells of cinnamon. I used this recipe. Clear and easy...a piece of cake ;)

As the light was so bad it took me more time to take the than to bake. And it was gone instantly  :)
That's always a good sign. It did another good deed today - I can go to bed in peace 





Tada

Martisor




There is a beautiful tradition back home in Romania on March, 1. 

On Martisor a little charm with white and red thread it's given to girls and women as symbol fertility and reviving of nature. Nowadays it is given more as a symbol of love, respect, appreciation.

These ones below are made by my mom and are quite traditional made with natural wool entirely hand processed and dyed by my grandmother. What can I say?! Amazing women!!!
