at lunch time world of interiors




at lunch i have to water my orchids and pelargoniums, prepare some food, put away winter clothes, do the washing, watch some tv (Jamie Oliver 30') and read my favourite deco magazines. This make me think at this brilliant post from Sarah at SAIPUA .

It´s been a hot spring day and now it´s raining. This morning I was looking for some doorway for this post and the light was beautiful.
At the Emaus shop I bought this poster by David Inshaw , as a child I used to play badminton with my brother and cousins and it brings back old memories. I didn´t know this painter, the atmosphere of the painting is a little (only a little) sinister but I like it.

the others clorophytum





at Lotte´s blog I saw her healthy clorophytum and I decided to get a new place for mine.
lately I am a little obsessed with roses. I want to plant some of them at my squatted garden (at my  in-laws orchard...). I received last week the David Austin Roses catalogue and I am triying to choose some of them. And do you know this great book?

From work some plants without flowers waiting for a kind hearted soul to adopt them.

Ivy and The secret garden





at Easter holidays I bought The secret garden (by Frances Hodgson Burnett) to my daughter. Some years ago I saw the film (by Agnieszka Holland), but I wanted to 
read the book . It´s a very nice one, for childs and adults. We are enjoying our bedtime reading. 
and the ivy...I love ivy.

Do you know (or like) Eric Rohmer films?




normally I arrive at home from work at 21.00 (more or less), just on time to see the rayon vert bathing my window boxes. And talking about the film... what a beautiful one! Any Eric Rohmer fan?
