Laundry time

Well, I like to do the laundry.
The problem was that it was raining for several days. Yes, I have a dryer but as we are used to the sun, we like to dry our clothes in the air. I use my dryer only for emergencies - and if the rain stayed for some more days it would have been an emergency !




But no, here is the sun and clothes are on the line.





There is something about clothes on the line that make me feel good. I like to go in the street and see people's houses on a sunny day with their clothes on the wind. It shows that there is life inside that house, there is a family. It look so colourful and nice.

Off now to do some more.

Cleaning the fridge


We have two friges in my house because we are lots - well, for european standards we are, in our house there are six people.

So, two friges mean the double of work and I often clean just the basic but now I decided that I would take everything out and clean it well.



I put my apron on and began cleaning but as I work outside is not everything done. I will say that is a work in progress but at least I began.
I will post a picture of it probably tomorrow, maybe it will inspire somebody to do the same.

31 Days

The Nesting Place is hosting a challenge where people will, for 31 days post about something they choose. It can be about Home, Food, Family whatever we choose but it will be around the same subject for the whole month.

I will post about  my home so it will be called 31 Days At Home.

My home is in great need of a lot of attention and I'm decided that it wil be now. I have so m any things to do that it will be easy to chose. So, each day it will be a new adventure for me.

Come back here tomorrow and there will be a new thing I did or will do in my home.

For several reasons I couldn't post for 31 days. Maybe next year.

A corner of my kitchen


The kitchen is a place in my house I like very much. It's not picture perfect as some I see in other blogs, it's not ready to be pictured in a magazine and it will never be but it's my kitchen.

I have great plans for saturday related with my kitchen.
Sometimes I see posts by people that, when they say they have plans to their kitchen, they mean to build a new one or to redecorate a part of it. Not me. I have plans to clean and tidy it. It needs and deserves more attention.
Life has been taking me to so many places and I was forgetting my house. Now I'm back. I'm expecting a lot of help from above and a good deal of peace so I can concentrate on the good things of life, like reclaiming my kitchen back.
I hope I will post more about it soon.

What's for dinner?


I was thinking about what I would do for dinner and it came to my mind a post I made here some years ago. I was talking about a favourite of mine: Blonde Potatoes. It's a recipe from my grandmother and I like it so much since I was a little girl. Better than chips. It can go with roasted meat or meatloaf. Or a steak. Very good also with a sauce made with onions and tomatoes. You can find the recipe here in this post Blonde Potatoes.


Have a good dinner.

Maybe it's this time

For almost a year  I have been away. Many things happened in my life and I neglected my blogs, my Flickr account, everything. The only place where I have been able to go it was my FB account.

Now I'm trying to get back again. Almost a year ago I tried to be back but I had not enough strength yet.
Now I'm trying again - I'm even giving some steps on Pinterest.
Maybe it's this time.

Autumn pleasures: chestnuts and apples

 There are many things that I like so much in Autumn and two of them are chestnuts and apples. The chestnuts, not like most people who like them roasted, I  prefer to eat it boiled. And I do eat them all Autumn long.

Apples. Not that I eat a lot of them raw. In this I am also unlike most people because I really prefer them in crumble. And if I eat apple crumble every Autumn!
So today I will make it again. If it will look nice maybe I will post a picture of it. One thing I know, I will find it very good to eat.


43 days for Christmas and I'm back.

I must hurry


No, they are not from this Christmas, but I have to hurry doing something. I bought already most things but I didn't wrap them yet! So, let's move on.
And yes, it's a load of presents but we are a big family.

It has been a long absence


I will come back. I'm just cleaning and decluttering the blog.
Meanwhile, I leave you with this beautiful music.
