Today I went into retreat in my favourite place in town: the local bookshop.
Three floors of great books, the smell of wood and paper,
nice staff who offer you coffee
or tea while you are browsing through the shelves.

Then you can sit down and get lost in your readings.
And I bought this book which made me laugh so much!
The perfect way to celebrate my birthday in peace.
Then of course I made a cake with Anita and she gave me lots of extra cuddles.
I like it like this.
Honestly, I'm not so keen on becoming one year older each year,
can we celebrate after every two years instead?

Très bon anniversaire Alessandra ! :)
Happy Birthday.
Funny, I've read the book as well and liked it. Enjoy.
Happy birthday! That sounds like a lovely day. I wish you a great two years x
I love this what you have wrote !Yes every two year- it is okei to me too!Happy Birthday !
happy every two years birthday to you!
this bookshop seems to be a place to get lost. we have a charming little bookstore here too, where they offer you a coffee, when they notice that you want to stay for a while :)
Happy birthday!! Hope you had a great day!
I love the bookstore! Looks like there is a great books collection....
Happy happy birthday dear Alessandra!
I too like it like that. Beginning with a browse through a civilized and tasteful bookstore (please point me in the direction) and quiet, little treats, family - the best.

Oh! Happy Birthday!
This would be how I would want to spend my birthday too. I'm very envious of your perfect bookstore. Ours is the enormous Barnes and Noble...and they make you pay for your coffee. :-)
I think the every two year idea is a good one. Time goes so fast it would really feel like one year anyway.
Have a lovely day.

this place looks like heaven ;-)
Buon compleanno!
And, oh, you have such lovely bookshops in England. Good for you.
happy belated birthday! a nice way to spend this day :)
To all: THANK YOU... and of course another treat is to have fellow bloggers who wish you a happy bday!
Unfortunately indipendent bookshops struggle to survive, that's why I tend to buy less books but at full price to support this local treasure!

Auguroni!
