Some more little things.

Life is all about little things, well to me anyway. So, I thought I would share with you some more of the little things that I like. In picture form of course.
Breakfast. Breakfast in Poland. Breakfast in Poland during berry season.
When your breakfast in Poland during berry season is on buckwheat pancakes and looks like this.
Clouds. I just love them.
I think clouds are actually greatly inspirational, especially cumulonimbus and cumulous. Cirrus are ok, but not nearly as graphic and creative.
Ladybugs/ ladybirds/ladybird beetles/lady beetles/Coccinellidae, whatever you want to call them they are just so great, gentle, delicate, cute and this year everywhere in Warsaw!
Homemade pasta, especially when it is drying out and looking like an odd sort of kelp forest.

When you ad kurki (chanterelles), butter, cracked pepper and a little garlic to homemade pasta.
Any form of cake from the wonderful patisserie Sweet Home the makers of our wedding cake and most birthday cakes since that date. Seriously delicious, like this chocolate and raspberry wonder.
Children with heads like balloons, well it is true, they look funny.
Storms, only those containing excessive rain, thunder and kickarse lightning.
Fresh homemade bread with butter, fresh homemade bread with butter and homemade jam.
These are, of course, only some of my favourite things in the world. The best part is that most of these I only truly discovered here in Warsaw. It really is a magical town.

Rainy Days

We've had a few rainy days of late, it has been a little sad for the Euro games but still the atmosphere for them seems to be kicking along. But rain provides other opportunities. It allows you to take some photos that maybe you wouldn't be able to see at other times of the year.












There must be some Irish in our neighbourhood.
It is funny as sometimes rain is a nice thing, it can be soothing and somehow warming. A lot like handmade presents and brown paper packages tied up with string.....sounds like a song.
home made stamps for a present.

Another post all tied up.
