Moods

A still mood - relaxed, calm, cool, fresh.

A string of beads

Less is more? ... I don't think so :-)

Body Worlds Exhibition Cape Town

Very interesting and stimulating experience in terms of learning about anatomy, the artful design of the exhibition and portraying the body in context of the cycle of life and the spiritual experience of living.

Summer holiday

A perfect last day of the summer holiday

Bathing in the sun

 

Humans bath in water, I bath in the sun!

Let's go

My fantasy destination is ... BARCELONA! Woke up one day and there it was, fixed in my mind. Must get that travel guide next.

After a day's work

Chilled red wine - not shaken, not stirred.

Two gifts and a ray of sunshine

Thanks Ammie for the kelim and Nicholas for the bowl.

Catching up on movies

Three films I loved watching this (almost) past holiday.  Monsieur Lazhar is a 2011 French Canadian film about an Algerian immigrant who replaces a teacher who committed suicide.  He helps the class deal with their grief and trauma while dealing with his own sorrow. La delicatesse is a 2012 French film, featuring Audrey Tautou, about a woman who loses the love of her life and gradually learns to open her heart again.  The door features Helen Mirren and was produced in 2012 in Bulgaria. It tells a surprising story about a writer and her maid.

Trying something new

Waldorf salad - why not! Lettuce, apples, grapes, raisins, Walnuts and celery lightly tossed in sauce made with mayonnaise, yoghurt, parsley, lemon juice and zest.

Solo among the herbs

No better place to sit than on freshly planted Basil.
