sunshine in the mailbox

today my mailbox (the real one, not the one for emails) was full of surprises.
there was a small package, it had come all the way from canada, and as i opened it, i found this:



a wonderful gift from a wonderful friend, from the blog nearness of distance.
isn't it magic?!
thank you, dear jane, thank you, I LOVE IT!!

but there were even more surprises - a postcard from another friend (also found through the virtual reality) - frau mima! it shows how she spends her holidays in the switzerland:

vielen vielen dank, liebe indre!!!

i feel so blessed today.....
it doesn't take much to make somebody happy, does it?

D300

the inner life of a cupboard III

it's winter, that's all.

the inner life of a cupboard II
D300

there is no sun unless in the lemon

mugs: rosenthal, juice squeezer: ikea, bowl: unknown (vintage). camera: nikon D300

don't push

feeling blue is something i can't really afford now.
i do not have time for doing nothing. there's so much work waiting for me to be done.
so i'm getting impatient and angry with myself.


the other day i saw a message on the street - white chalk on a blackboard. it said:

DON'T PUSH
THE RIVER
IT FLOWS

(i felt sorry i didn't have a camera with me)
today i wrote it on my wall.
so good - hints and directions can be found on the street.

ok, and here comes the last (so far) part of my visual pleading for second-hand clothes :)

did you know that the production of 1 kg cotton takes 20.000 liter water? and there are 19 billion tons of cotton being grown a year, and 50% of all pesticides in the world are used for growing cotton!
