This is the house I grew up in, where my parents live. It's peaceful and green here, a place to think and dream. I chose the flowered wallpaper for my bedroom when I was 7 and I still love it.
Currently:
It's raining
I'm drinking coffee (well, decaf)

That seems like a ver nice house. I grew up in so man different houses that I don't have fond memories of any of them, just my gramma's and the family summer place. Those have never changed and are still there.
It's good to have you back.
:)
Thanks Esti! That's great that you still have your grandmother's house to visit and a family summer house...I wonder if you are at one of those places right now? :) Hope you are enjoying your vacation!
I too love your wallpaper!
how funny, half a yellow sun is lying on my bedside table waiting to be read, a friend of mine waxed lyrical about it. are you enjoying it? I'm halfway through miranda july's "no one belongs here more than you" but as it's a book of short stories I don't feel particularly committed.. do I finish it or do I just start with half a yellow... ahh what a silly dilemma :)
enjoying your holiday photos, looks like you had a wonderful time!
Hi Famapa,
Yes, start Yellow! I finished it this week and really loved it. Wonderful characters and excellent descriptive writing. I have her first book Purple Hibiscus up next after Penelope Lively's Consequences. I'm on a reading binge! I read one of Miranda July's short stories in the New Yorker a while back, but haven't read the whole book. You'll have to let me know if it's worth it in the end!
