And would have finished my second Camelia purse but for missing yarn. Then this week was the “Rentrŕ©e”: […]

I love living here. This is the view from our window the other night while I was reading. A pretty old church, a quiet village at night, snow falling, moutains around. What else would I ever need ? (apart from a house and a garden we can call our own, but that’s another story ;-) […]

Booh, tryed to order some yarn from Phildar (quite exceptional for me, but my grandmother asked I crochet a blanket for her) online today, and it took forever. At 7am !! I tried yesterday but it wouldn’t even let me log in. Can’t they get a decent server ? :-/ It seems there’s no Phildar […]

A little french culture… That’s one of my favorite kids songs, and this version is really cute ! Plus it helps understanding the song, for once… :-) (Prune’s favorite is “La Tour prends garde“) We’re now back home, and it’s still snowing. Will post some pics tomorrow when I have some time.
