color archive: brown

and this is the brown archive!

see you in a few days with the new color and… xmas lights!!

panettone anyone?

some days ago I find a galup panettone at the supermarket and I fell in love 

with it’s new vintage packaging! it’s so beautiful!! it’s one of that things you think: 

I wish I made this! really, you could go on their web site and see it closer. galup has 

opened a new store in turin few days ago, the first one in italy, to relaunch the brand, 

but I think they made it yet with the packaging! the chocolate one will be 

on my table for christmas! 

fausto coppi

today I wanna give you a brilliant idea for xmas presents: the fausto 

coppi 2014 calendar! illustrated by joey guidone, it tells the story of one of the 

most famous cyclist of the world, with illustrations, pictures, short tales and curiosity.

mo-vember

movember is a very brilliant idea! it seems that everybody have a pair 

of mustache this month, also here in Italy, where this kind of actions use to arrive 

later than in other countries… of course I cannot grow mustache even though the 

sleepyhead…

sciré loves to sleep under my desk while I’m working… but it’s so funny the way 

she positions herself… I cannot understand how could she feel comfy there… 

love my doggy dog!

a splash of coffee

I know I have to write a lot of captions for the last posts, but I really have not 

so much time these days and actually… it is damned boring! so I hope you could 

wait another day or two and in the meanwhile appreciate this post about drawings 

made with coffee used as watercolor!

silent witnesses of time passing by…

I have always loved tree bark… the texture, the rough surface, the infinite motives 

you could find in its lines… when I was a child I use to read books as trouble for 

trumpets, gnomes and woodland stories and the illustration was filled of secrets 

and hide illustrations, like trolls, faces, animals… 

ippo’s birthday – censured!

ahahahahahahah! ok this is ippo. 

he wanted me to take this picture to say thanks to everyone for birthday wishes.

no comment!

ippo‘s birthday! 30!

yesterday was ippo’s birthday! now he is officilaly 30 years old… 

he’s not so happy, he hates growing and getting older, but anyway…
we have celebrated!

now… which one of the cake here above it’s my cake?

oh my dog!

so cute this dog compositions! I wish I could have a new dog to play with sciré!

this reminds me of a song I use to listen some years ago, at my first workplace, 

from the you’ve got mail soundtrack, by harry nilsson. do you know the song? 

strumming away on my uke! aloha!

our trip to perù has been great! but so hard… every night a different hotel,
the luggage alway packed, 5 nights at more than 4500 mts of altitude, hours
and hours by bus and plane to go from a place to another.

fall(ing) leaves…

hallo curiosetti, isn’t my little sciré so cute?! 

I love her! kisses from the park! 

brown! yum! bow wow!

and here we are… it’s november! to me the month in the middle… 

well, it’s definitely winter, but summer is still so close in memory and christmas 

is coming so far! it’s like a bridge you have to pass, so you wanna pass it quickly 

to arrive as far as you can on the other side! but we could make it more pleasant 

enjoying some little pleasure… the soft warm feeling of a new wool 

cardigan, the I-need-this-to-survive-the-cold-of-winter priceless flavour 

of some indulgent sweets, the chestnut taste…
