Friday notes


Morning tea, this time I tasted this,  a sample of palais des thés sent me with my order.
I spend these days doing simple things, feeling I'm in the middle of nowhere and where are no worries, listening to the quietness or occasional sounds of the trees. I like this, what about your summer days?
Currently I'm watching this Danish series.
Today is my nameday and tonight I'm going to enjoy a jazz concert here.

he week has started better than the last, my sewing machine it's fixed and I was able to finish my polka dots purple dress and I've sewed something for a friend, the package is on her way.
Also is on the way an item from the store, I love making packages. Is only available one pot-holder!! ;)
On the weekend went to a concert and other activities, my city is dressed up to celebrate the festivities, I'm looking forward begin to enjoy all their activities.
I apreciate the lovely comments you all write to me.
Not knowing what to do in August, I try to think that is a good plan staying at home.

Happy Monday.

The garden smells of lavender. I sewed a free-pattern dress, I'm very happy with the result and the dress is very airy and fresh. I woke up this morning with this lovely surprise, these two flowers have bloomed! they made my day!!
Some problems with the jacket, I had to undo a good part, a bit of disappointment, but now everything is right back on my needles.Many good things to eat.
I fixed a little the blog, I increased my list of favorite blogs.
Enjoying a lot of this concert. I love Ane Brun and Ólöf Arnalds, they are my favorite. What about yours?

Happy weekend.

Oh! summer time...hot days pass pretty quiet, I love wasting time in the garden, knitting or reading and enjoying a good cup of tea, it makes me feel good.
The garden is full of plants.
It's nice to hear the crickets singing.
I'm wearing light fabrics dresses, I don't like pants.
Little impatience in receiving  packages and preparing others to send.   
This morning I went to buy some sale fabric. I feel like,  again, need to spend some afternoons with my sewing machine.
I love the beautiful project that I have in my knitting needles and thinking about the next.
I'm dreaming of spending a few days in the beautiful countryside of southern France, I want to come back.

Summer dress and fresh food. On Saturday we went to Barcelona and we watched a design documentary in la Filmoteca, is a good site to see a movie, and very economical!
The sales period has begun, I've ordered this kimono jacket.
I love my new silk shirt.
On Sunday, I ate a giant pistachio macaron, I love when he brings me this surprise.
Thank you for your suggestions about a product for broken nails on my last post.
I have finished the scarf, I have some other wool so I'm going to knit a beret. I think my next project will be this one, I love the jacket but I'm a little scared by complexity.
My dear friend has knitted two-and the truth is that looks amazing, I want one!

I found this recipe site.
