I love!

I can fall in love with things and people very easily. Back in my childhood days, I would take a deep breath and say “hello, wanna be my friend?” But somehow, when you are a grown up this doesn’t work anymore.

My new obsession is the whole new world (at least for me!) of cute food. I love to eat and I love to make beautiful things. So, why not? And this girl, wow, she is amazing. She does all these incredible things, that look delicious and are so, so pretty.

I would love to meet her and work with her, learn how to do these beauties. Go to her blog and enjoy.

Party!!!

Hello everyone!

What a nice weekend I had! Party, party, party! It was amazing! It started at 6 pm, 10 diferent kinds of cheese on the table, 5 bottles of wine, good music and delicious cupcakes! After that, more and more people were arriving one after the other, with full hands. The result? TONS of yummy cheeses and liters and liters of wine! 7 hours of party, people dancing, laughing, having fun. I looooooooooooooved it! And I also got an incredible gift, a bread machine!!!!!

cupcakesI cannnot even describe how happy I am. And how proud I am of myself. Turning 30 was not so bad after all! It just made me realize that I’m doing good, and that I’m in a good path in my life, that even with all the hardness, the difficulties, all the tears wasted, fears about the future, anxiety, even having the most tough year of my life, I’m still capable of making friends, and spead hapiness and smile and make people smile too. Again, I realized that after 1 year and a half in another foreign city I have a very nice group of people who I love and who I can call friends and doesn’t matter which way our lives will turn, doesn’t matter where will we be in the future, we will keep in touch and still be friends! Love you very very much guys!

And I couldn’t not mention my dear husband. Him, the most amazing man in the world, the sweetest, funniest, lovable person I know. He made this party for me. He bought all the cheeses and the wine and an adorable pair of boots that I will use tomorrow for our romantic birthday dinner. I love you very much, Gui. I’m starting this week with a great smile in my face. Thank you u’all.

30thbdayOh, I’m soooooo excited! I’m having my b-day party on this Saturday! YEY!!!

Oh, only God knows how much I would like to spend my 30th b-day with my mom and friends in Rio, but anyway, this was not possible this year. But I’m a very lucky girl and I have the best boy just by my side to make me happy and tons of friends that will come to celebrate with me this saturday!

Good moring!

What a cold autumn we are having this year here at the north part of the world. I was off to run this morning and I almost froze out there. I wouldn’t be surprise if we had snow in a few weeks, YAY!

xmas And all this winter feeling made me keen to christmas to come sooner. I’m such in a christmas mood this year. So, I decided to make this little project. It was really easy, just decided the shape and the colours and started sewing, it took me 2 days. Isn’t it lovelly?

Next step is to customize my xmas tree balls. This year I will cover them with a very cute fabric to make it more fun. Pictures soon!
