things i love today

my bright red geranium

fresh chestnuts to roast or boil...yummy!

amazing pomegranates...not very sweet but still lovely and full of vitamins!!!

a hot cup of tea on the first rainy-cold morning of the season !!! and my baby checking if there's anything eatable....

a lovely outing and a new "friend" !!!

MrB had the day off so we decided to take the little ones on a small trip and visit some nearby villages. We packed a few snacks, a couple of beers and some cola drink and headed to the base of Koziakas mountain. And there, on the top of a hill...we found a lovely small playground...just the perfect place for us to sit and relax with the little ones running around happily. It was a small break from our daily routine and we really really needed it....
back home...i have a few "arrivals" to share with you and the one i'm happier with is my first ever sewing machine !!! Yes!! I finally got my hands on one and i cant wait to use it....but first i have to  find out how it works...hehehe...

i bought it a few days ago and i think it was a good deal...just 80euros and with a 3 year guarantee. The manual says it has 33 stitches, button holes and buttons....and i believe that its more than enough for the money i paid....and to be honest i didn't want to spend more cause I've never used a sewing machine in my life and i don't know if im gonna like it or not. I think its perfect for a beginner. I still haven't tried it...im just reading the manual and searching for tutorials on youtube so i would be more than grateful for any tips or suggestions you may have !!! Cant wait to hear your opinion on that!

till then...have a lovely messy time!!! xxxx

bye bye babies...

Today my babies turned 2 months old and one would think it would be a fun and happy day but it wasn't....
they left for their new homes...the first one  2 days ago and today the other three...they all went to nice families who love and already  own other dogs so they will have a nice future but still i cant help feeling depressed and left alone....Fani feels that way too cause she sits all quiet and sad in a corner and Sissy probably feels the same cause she loved to play with them....at least we get to keep the last one of the five for 15 more days cause her mommy to be (a good friend of mine) is on her summer holidays : )

should i keep it ??

Yesterday i showed you my latest crochet making...the baby*girl snake....that im supposed to gift to our friends....the thing is that my little Sissy seems to like it...a lot!!!!
i was trying to take pictures and she just wouldn't leave it alone!!!
 take a look and see if i'm wrong...hehehe
so now im thinking...how can i break her little heart ??? how can i take away her beloved new friend ??
would it be wrong for me to keep the new baby*snake and just crochet something else for our friends ?

baby*girl snake!!!

The other day i started crocheting a baby snake for our friends new baby room....i used acrylic yarns and i tried to choose the cutest and softest colours....i suppose they're gonna use pastel colours for the room and i wanted it to fit....i also used small plastic buttons for the eyes (and white felt fabric) and for decorating the little crochet flower...for the inside i used pillow stuffing which is hypo allergic and safe for kids although the snake is for decorating the room and not for the baby to play with.
