happy me

The sun is shining and it makes me happy...

What a nice and sunny afternoon it was... I couldn't help feeling like spring started, again... I was in town with my other half and son, finding a lovely book, called 'High tea' by Susannah Blake, which completely made me feel like having some tea and preparing all kinds of delicious things. I will of course let you know when I have tried one of her recipes!

Tonight we have 2 couples coming over for dinner, and I prepared bolognese sauce and pasta, then some pancakes and icecream with whipped cream, yes, I am in the mood for some good, comfort food. The table is set with my nice linens and special cutlery. What a pleasure it is, to set a table for friends and to enjoy the atmosphere.

I hope you all enjoy the weekend and do enjoy your homes!

Hallo, ik volg je blog al een tijdje, maar had nog nooit gereageerd. Maar die foto's zien er zo yummy uit, dat ik dacht ik ga even op de thee.
Prachtig hartje trouwens! En mooie site. Ik kom zeker vaker langs.

Dat boek ziet er heerlijk uit zeg... ben benieuwd naar de recepten die je gaat maken.
En die laatste foto...mmm... je zou er zo je tanden inzetten.
Ik heb vanmiddag een stel vrienden op bezoek, dus ook hier heerlijk de tafel decoreren... wat een genot he!
Dus ja, ik ga zeker genieten van m'n huis!
Fijne zondag nog voor jou Solange, hoop dat het zonnetje zich ook vandaag laat zien (wat kan het leven er dan anders uitzien hè).
Liefs uit São Paulo, Chantal
