paris glimpses

top photo from first night in paris, dinner at anahi on rue volta, an old butcher's shop made in to south amrican restaurant. that is, a meat restaurant. loved the place, the athmosphere.

the following day was foggy. loved how the eiffel tower just disappeared into the clouds that day.

more to come...

outside :: inside

two of the best things right now: the wild flowers in the fields that reminds me of something back home and the pecans falling from the tree.

i hope you're enjoying favorite things too.

people and places

i was planning to post some photos from paris, but i didn't get them sorted yet. which reminded me that i never really posted that many photos from this summer in denmark. so here we go. while waiting for paris some random shots of the people we love to see and spend time with when visiting denmark. i believe there are more to come.

have a wonderful weekend.

on a rainy day

it's raining heavy today. a perfect day to sit indoor catching dreams and pulling strings. instead i'm going to work. which is ok too. i like to go to tel aviv.

rain or shine - i hope you're doing something you like too.

top three

i'm forty now. it feels the same, but that doesn't stop me from thinking about time that passed. my top three of favorite things that happened in the last decade is right up there, Noam, Daniel and Jonathan. no particular order. or rather no order at all. three times number 1s of awesome little souls.

paris was great. loved it. and we were so lucky with the wather. sunny and beautiful fall colors all around. returned home this morning and the rain  has been pouring down most of the day. a great excuse to just stay indoors in comfy clothes and drink tea. perfect.

4 days for 40 years

november came and she brought colder weather and last week even rain and thunder. now the un is out again, but the season has changed. the nights are cold, the air dry and crisp. we even pulled out the heavy winter duvets.

the other day i picked the kids from kindergarten in heavy rain and we walked home. i was without a car, so it wasn't out of choice, but i decided to make it fun and so i didn't even try to make it home with dry kids. we walked through the dirt roads, all muddy and full of puddles. i don't think we missed one as they jumped (and fell) into every single one. when we came back we were all soaking wet, but laughing. and we were treated with hot cocoa and pancakes by my mother who is visiting.

the desktop up there is the october treat from geninne. and of course november is ready now, beautiful as always. i have it already. november is my month, the month i was born.

today my dad will arrive and tomorrow i'm off with the husband, leaving the kids behind to be terribly spoiled by their grandparents.

we'll leave for 4 days and i'll turn 40 in paris. 

holding on to october

it's october. i like this month here. the cooling down, the afternoon light.

the twins celebrated their sixth birthday yesterday. the day before my mom had arrived from denmark, so they had the day off.

times is flying these days, seriously. i don't get around to do half of what i plan.

did i tell you i started running? well, i did. i ran in the spring, and started to be serious while in denmark this summer. it's the first time in my life i'm really getting hooked on doing sports.

wishing you a great late october weekend.
