I recommend... strongly.

Did I mention I love my husband, how wonderful he is, how generous kind and thoughtful... Just in case I wasn't clear enough, please allow me to reiterate! First of - there are these lovely concoctions which I get to have EVERY morning:-)

On occasion, he even takes time from his awfully busy days to get me some of these.

I unwrap this magic and enjoy... If you never tried this chocolate, I strongly recommend. The content is sugar, cocoa and salt... and that's it!

Note To Self:

I’ve only got short 16 month until the Pub Pub and his little fingers will need entertainment at travel time.   Luckily I’ve run into this article in New York Times.

I Love Shopping For My Baby

Being a mom made me take a good long look at my list of hobbies and downsize.

As sad as I was the reward of parenthood is really unsurpassable, so after deep reflection I have decided that my favorite hobby is… SHOPING (ta da!)

Since I’m no longer ashamed of it, I’m incorporating the ‘new’ hobby into my little blog.  Firs on the agenda are baby blocks.   Obviously I cannot in all good sense buy my baby only one (imagine the horror) set, I’ve put together a small collection to acquire by his first birthday.  

On a small note, you never have to pay retail - I just go to Amazon.

Windy Saturday

So I had some free time (in a long time) to visit my favorite blogs.  I was overjoyed to discover this very sexy letterpress video made by RepeatPress.com.
