{baking frenzy mood is at full gas - literally speaking as well and the house is so, so warm}
For the first time in many years my Christmas tree will be up only this weekend. The amount of work that I still have in hands, the nerve wrecking burocracies for the moving to the new house and the shocking incompetence and irresponsability of certain people that were supposed to be providing efficient public service have been a major setback; and therefore, as I dreamt so much of doing the Christmas tree in the new house and the disappointment of not seeing that dream fulfilled this year has made me loose some of my otherwise always prompt enthusiasm. Nevertheless, I still do love this season and still have to feel grateful for the many succeded accomplishments so far and so, besides relaxing and starting to bake the cookies batches for this year's gifts, this weekend I'm certainly be lighting up the beautiful and old light strands on my pine tree and I'll be making a wish, as is my own personal tradition! Have a great weekend, guys! I'm in the mood for...
{lately I've been rotation on simple, practical but still polished outfits - this kind of look has been reproduced countless times}
{I've stacked the pantry with at least ten different kind of tea flavours}
{on the hunt for the perfect mettalic silver cream eyeshade}
{loving everything about about this super polished leather planner - the crocodile print design, the wine colour, the gold details}
{winter roses from the back yard that are just as beautiful as greatly scented}
{adding these beautiful decorations to my still undone Christmas tree - at ZARA HOME}

ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to see the tree, doll! Better late than never. Kisses, Aida!

Oh Aida, good luck with your house move. I hope it'll all go smoothly in the end. Have a great weekend dear!
ReplyDeleteChin up, girlfriend or "Pull it together, soldier!" as my 25-year-old boss used to tell me. My baking and decorating frenzy doesn't even BEGIN until Monday (I've learned to put myself on a schedule).
ReplyDeleteNow, about the incompetent and irresponsible people, there is a word for them in English: "dickheads". And you usually find them around anything that has to do with a house. So here's my recommendation: since you don't have a house, let's make this Christmas all about YOU. Get you hair and nails done, maybe a facial and a massage, buy yourself presents. And just glitter. I'm a gypsy girl, and that's how we cope.
You have roses in December?
