Happy Summer days
My Danish part of the summerholidays starts right now – I´ll spend 2 weeks of sweet doing nothing in our summerhouse. Last summer I painted these stones so I could make up my own weather forecast – set in stone! I´ll be back in 2 weeks – have fun & enjoy (the sun)!
A Casa Franciotto
Just went through my photos from our holiday in Italy – almost self torture – since I´m back to work again. But the place we stayed is too good not to share so here we go. We spent a week at Agriturismo a Franciotto, located 9 km outside Lucca. Surrounded by olive- and grape fields and with the most wonderful view of Tuscan hills & houses and Lucca in the distance… The owner Laura was so sweet and helpful and her daughter Silvia cooked us some tasty traditional Tuscan meals some nights… My mum had invited us all – and the place was perfect for 2 families with kids and a seperate house for an extra family or grandparents. I miss that view, the silence and the sun!
Nice to have
Everything is on sale right now – and I´m really not a good sales shopper – I tend to buy things I like when I see them – and used to return from the sales with white shirts – (which I never wear) and scarfes (which I always wear). But lately I´ve started to ask myself if an item is a Nice to Have or a Need to Have which saves me a lot of money and a lot of wrong buys . I just browsed my favorite shop and webshop BA10 – and I found a lot of great stuff that would be Nice to Have…Maybe some of it is a Need to Have for you?
My Italian Summer Colour Week
Here´s a glimpse of my lovely & lazy Italian holiday – which I´ve just returned from. I decided to take the photos for The Summer Colour Week with my Iphone and Instagram app. 1. YELLOW – fresh figs served on our terrace. 2 PINK – old signs in Lucca. 3. BLUE – our private pool and wonderful view at Casa Franciotto – a place I can highly recommend! 4. RAINBOW – street in the old center of Lucca. 5. RED – Italian graffiti. And now back to work!
