So these last few days I had to go out of town for some business visits, but I am happy I managed to meet with good friends and share some moments – and drinks with them. A lovely company of people, who I know from University times and with whom I have apparently formed that…

Anthropologie – November favorites
Lately, I am experiencing particularly calm feelings. Such, that I had almost forgotten, given the pressure and difficulties and inner searching and mood swings of the last years. I don’t know if this will last long but I try to enjoy every moment as much as I can. I have so much going on in…
Thoughts by the fireplace…
Humidity has made its appearance this afternoon, although it is a gorgeous sunny November that actually feels like April. Sitting by the fireplace, just staring at the fire can make you think a little more deeply than usual and this is what is happening for me right now. I enjoy these moments with a cup…
Grandma’s rustic Spinach Pie!
Having moved to my old, (and four years abandoned) house recently, means facing everyday “decay” challenges. A house that had no electricity, many broken roof tiles and weathered wooden doors for that long, is no easy thing and as winter approaches (thank God it’s Greece) I am in a constant fight with time. A situation…
Wondering aloud
I often go for a walk in the center of my city. With music in my ears and eyes wide open for details. It is when I do a lot of my thinking. It usually follows the music as well. And I walk and walk until some kind of resolution comes to my head. A…
Pumpkin chilli con carne with homemade tortillas (by Maria D.)
I don’t know why I don’t do more of these photo-cooking projects, as I enjoy it too much and in the end it is good food on the table. It takes time and preparation that is true, but it just goes with the season. Autumn is so inspiring, not only because of its nature changes…
Happy October days
I often suspected that Autumn colors are the best colors a season can have. Now I am sure. All these yellows, oranges, reds, browns. A color scheme fit for the best artist that is nature. It is also the first time in my life I actually buy a pumpkin! A humble, little pumpkin…
When life gives you lemons…
There are some days that are just happy days. Nothing special happening. Just calm, relaxing, stress free, usually sunny, happy days. I love when this happens. When you wake up in the morning with lemon-pie cravings and an Illy espresso to go with it. These days also tend to run fast and the evening comes…
I dreamed of…
I am often dreaming. Day-dreaming to be more exact. Its is not reality that I want to avoid. It is myself in this reality. Since I realised that I am not the best judge of me, I try to detour from my “real-life” conversations with myself and how “I do” in the everyday tasks and try…
Calm feelings
It is a mind blowing game, reality. An ever changing, constantly flowing river that we are in, showing its calm sides and its rough, wild streams, some small or large waterfalls that either end up on quiet lakes or take us further away to more rough streams. Sometimes we get washed ashore for a…
