7 boring things about me
Playing along with Kerry, I'm supposed to tell you 7 things about me.
I like to make people laugh, not laughing at me of course.
When I walk, I mainly do two things, I walk at a very fast pace and most of the time I look up.
Result? I tend to bump into signs, poles, walls, corners and people.
Just a couple of days ago, I hit my face against a corner so hard that the left cheek
has swollen a bit, so sore that I can't sleep on that side since then.
I also cried like a lamb, which is something that I normally do when I hurt myself (third thing). Because of the fast pace I'm often prone to "freak accidents": once, in a shop I used to work in London, with the lovely Gini (fourth thing) I managed to stuck a cactus plant in my bum, it got caught on my long scarf and then landed with all the spines in my back side! the whole scene in front of a lot of people of course, it was quite embarassing, the folks there almost chocked for laughing so much! and yes, they were laughing at me.
Another time I was running up the stairs and I stuck my head inside a shelf full of shoe boxes, don't know how I did it though and again lots of people witnessed it.
No wonder that sometimes I feel like Mr Bean (fifth thing about me).

But I'm quite happy to be what I am (seventh thing).
Yay , I made it!
Yay , I made it!
Would you like to play along? I can't choose though.
Never complain. Never explain.

Thanks Kerry.

frosty
Today I woke up and looked outside the window,
frost covers everything, the light is beautiful, the trees surreal.
I found myself overwhelmed by the beauty of it.
Severine delicate hand crocheted snow flake.
Uncommon beautiful handmade coaster, from Fen and Ned.

at home
A is poorly.
We try to balance dvd's watching and crafting.
She made a paper doll, I'm trying to make a village of little houses.
Our branch tree is white now and has fairy lights,
it is our Christmas tree for this year.
Little fingers can't stay away from the sand inside the vase, though.
To make the origami house go here (via here).

making
A enthusiasm is contagious, so here I am preparing for the festivities.
I like to keep everything as much simple (and easy) as possible.
The Advent Calendar is made with little brown paper envelopes and these stamps.
The seasonal cold hit me too.
I will stay warm at home this weekend: which after all is a good thing, because I can't stop
to knit this scarf with beautiful baby alpaca dk (and I have some work to finish... finally).

Keep warm if you live on this side of the world,
stay cool to the others.
