inside a red apple…

even my friend mela blew out the candles on sunday! mela in english means apple..

in her honour today I’m going to tell you about an american crafter.. emily martin, 

the black apple! we [mela end me] discovered this artist when we worked togeter, 

about two years ago.. [two years!! time flies away so fast!] I fell in love with her dolls, 

but I really like most of her works.. even if she has a quirky taste for melancholy 

characters, sometimes freaks.. all of her subjects are child or animal that seems to 

come from a far away world, a silent and muffled far away world..

red feathers dress

on wednesday I was walking in knightsbridge and I came across harvey nichols store.. 

the windows were a tribute to alexander mcqueen and my reaction when I saw his 

wonderful creations displayed had been this: wow..

each dress was a sculpture.. and I stared at a red one.. made of red feathers..
so gorgeouse! it must be the one at number 3! for sure sandra suy, the incredible
illustrator that has drawn the women you can see here, has been struck with
the same dress!

it's my birthday!

red kitchen.. baking passion!

well, I don't know if your posts have been restored, but mine have not..

red kitchen.. baking passion!
yeeh! get ready 'cos tomorrow, may 26, will be my birthday and I know you would really love sending me a delicious handmade little cake! as I said in the published-deleted post two weeks ago.. if you can't bake a cake.. you could buy me one of the wonderful cake stands you could see at number 1.... I would really appreciate!

sorry but I don't have the images sources, I'll complete this post when I'll be back home..

greetings from london

hallo..
a week is gone and so many things has happened.
funny things, extremely sad things, things
you-fume-over-if-you-think-about!
the bad news is that my cat, my adored cat,
that has been with me for 15 years, is no more
with us.. he's gone, on thursday, and I'm feeling
terribly sad.. terribly sad.....

goodbye my little heart..

anyway.. I'm in london now and today is a sunny
day.. I'm going to stay all day long in the park
eating cookies and drinking mango smoothies..

love love

london calling...

here I am!

blogger had been out of order these days and, with my disappointment, the post red
kitchen has not yet been restored... uff.. anyway, with the hope that sooner or later they
restore it, here is the new post, I should have published yesterday, blogger allowing...

I go to london! leave tomorrow morning at 9am, so I have to get up early because
I came to mrs fr's home [mrs fr is my mother] to say hallo to her and my sweet cats!
two huors far from the airport.. and I'll stay away until the and of may, will you miss
me?? don't worry, I'll pop in sometime! and remember that 26 is my birthday!!

well.. bon voyage to me! see you soon!

red heart cheeks!

goodmorning!

even today I don’t want to stay here working on computer, but I really want to 
share with you the image at number 1 of my wall of frames… isn’t it fantastic?!
I could not wait to let you see it!

just now I was reading annek’s blog and I fell in love with her post ‘i cuori rossi’…
read it, it’s so adorable! can you imagine a lot of hearts, like soap bubbles, over
the heads of people kissing? of course you can! disney created an imaginary
world in our minds…

love love…

prima di lasciarvi il mio post giornaliero voglio fare gli auguri di compleanno 

a mia sorella! oggi compie 27 anni e probabilmente starà mangiando giusto 

ora la torta banane e cioccolato che abbiamo preparato insieme per i suoi colleghi… 

quindi… tanti auguri c!!

avete visto che bello? sono andata a caccia di cuori per voi!

mettere un cuoricino da qualche parte, rosso ovviamente, migliora la giornata! 

e se posso essere sincera oggi non ho tanta voglia di stare davanti al computer… 

voglio lasciare la mente libera di vagare… perciò cosa ne dite se ci vediamo domani?! 

vi lascio i cuori… love love…

before starting my daily post, I want to wish happy birthday to my sister! 

today she turns 27 and probably now she is eating the banana and chocolate 

cake we cooked together for her colleagues… so… happy birthday c!!

have you seen what a beautiful image? I have gone in search of hearts for you! 

put a little heart somewhere, red of course, make your day better!

and, if I could be honest, today I have no desire to stay here  working on computer…

I want my mind to be free of wander… then… what do you think if we'll see 

tomorrow?! I leave you together with the hearts… love love…

shopping fever…red bags!

there’s a beautiful store near my house, where they sell clothes and accessories 

for wich you would stick your nose to the window, as a child… every two weeks 

they set up the windows… every two weeks it’s a torture! yes! because it’s impossible 

not to find something you really love among what is displayed… so you start to desire 

it ardently, telling yourself you do not need it, you have so many things that hardly 

goes into your wardrobe… than you do a calculation to excuse the possible purchase…

goes on like this for three or four days until the desire begins to wane… if not… 

then it’s clear you cannot do without!!!
