multiple choice.

 

i have been a bad blogger lately. this is because:

a) i have been watching trees blossom in our neighborhood. (also known as, spying on the neighbors.) 

b) i have some exciting projects in the works. (i cannot wait to share!)

c) simon and i have been spending lots of time in quiet, beautiful maine (which often reminds me of home).

d) there are not enough hours in the day. (universe, just a couple more?)

e) i have been craving time offline.

f) i've been eating watermelon every day.

g) all of the above.

p.s. loves, i'm sorry my posts have been sporadic. the good news is i have some great things lined up for the next couple of weeks. thank you for sticking around. :) gros bisous.

cheers!

i'm signing off a little early for the weekend, because tomorrow, simon and i are heading to colorado to celebrate new year's eve with my family. we're going to bake a kransekake, play cards, and drink lots of champagne (of course).

simon is also going to experience his first raucous norwegian party, complete with pickled herring and akkevit, a strong type of scandinavian schnapps! (bless his heart.)

here's wishing you a very happy, healthy, joyful new year! can't wait to share 2011 with you. xo.

a good week.

this week, i...

• taught two yoga classes: one to a group of fabulous ladies who sent me home with banana bread, and one to a beautiful woman who happens to be my sister. (after this class, we partook in some whitewineasana.)

• skyped with a dear friend in germany. it made me just a teeny bit nostalgic for the year that i lived in munich. the holiday markets and snowy roads were incredibly picturesque.

• took a field trip to ikea and stocked up on a ridiculous amount of scandinavian holiday goodies. i swear, i will never tire of pepperkaker (ginger snaps) norwegian mulled wine, and kitschy scandinavian decorations.

• found some new places of inspiration on the web: a beautiful yoga podcast, wee textiles, and an inside garden diary.

• and last but not least, finished this book. highly recommended.

have a nice weekend, everyone!
