Early morning

If you like Clint Eastwood..

Grab a cup of tea (or coffee) and enjoy !

Ne nous fâchons pas

Ne nous fâchons pas est un film français réalisé par Georges Lautner, sorti le 20 avril 1966.

Looking back ... or is it listening back ?

I discovered this album in the end of 1989 ... I was 14 going on 15 ... I bought it because of the cover ( it was a tape)... wondering what was behind it ... the guy look a bit like Buddy Holly I thought .. His name is quite funny (Elvis Costello).. and then I listened and Wowww ... I started translating the words .. wanted to understand the lyrics ... and I did ... And I listened to the album again... and again and again.. I wore out the tape ... so I bought the CD ... and listened to it again... and again and again ... Then I listened to other things ( again and again...). Yesterday I felt the need to listen to Spike ... I know every song by heart now but I'm not tired of any of them ... so I guess this week is going to be Spike week !

Spring is in the air ... somewhere

I know I should have not complained about not having seen the snow this winter ...

One of my favorite movies

So...

First some of the goodies I received from Sherry , Lucinda and Lindsay




Thanks soooooo much to you ... see I've been spoiled and they didn't even know that on the very last day of january it was the 30th anniversary of this picture ...



Now another january birthday girl, it's one of my best friends, she turned 30 and she is a huge fan of Don Quixote ... so I made this little sculpture for her :


And I also translated her first name and last name into a picture :



This gives me an idea : a necklace for the one who tell me what her first name is ...
