Happy New Year!

May the New Year treat you well! I guess this picture doesn't tie in with the occasion other than that I'm somehow drawn to it right now. And it kindles a small wish to perhaps get to wander along the streets of some fascinating town in the coming year. Thank you all of you for the past year!


Olkoon Uusi Vuosi teille hyvä ja hellivä! Tämä kuva ei välttämättä liity ajankohtaan mitenkään sen kummemmin kuin, että se vetoaa juuri nyt. Ja saa vähän haaveilemaan jonkun kiehtovan kaupungin kulmilla marhaamisesta, jospa sellainen toive vaikka toteutuisi. Joka tapauksessa, kiitos teille jokaiselle menneestä vuodesta!

A quick hello from amidst too many things to do. Working my way towards my last deadlines with far too little time left for Christmas preparations and reveling in that sweet pre-Christmas atmosphere. But our Christmas tree is now thawing in the bathtub and a little juniper appeared in the children's room last night. They found some decorations in their advent calendar this morning to hang on its branches. Our neighbour surprised us by leaving a jar of homemade jam and some sweets for the kids behind our door, unexpected acts of kindness like that are so moving.


Pikainen huikkaus tohinan keskeltä. Viimeisiä töitä taon ja jouluvalmisteluihin ja tunnelmointiin on jäänyt aivan liian vähän aikaa. Nyt on kuitenkin joulukuusi haettu kylpyammeeseen sulamaan ja yön aikana ilmestyi lapsille pikkukataja, johon pääsivät ripustamaan kalenterista aamulla ilmestyneet koristeet. Naapurikin ilahdutti jättämällä oven taakse itsetehtyä hilloa ja lapsille polkkakaramelleja, tuollaiset odottamattomat yllätykset kyllä koskettavat.

Cecilie Westh's Christmas home

I posted some photos from the home of Cecilie Westh already a couple of years ago, you can take a look here. Her home is one of those gems, so I was delighted to find this more recent article on her home in Bo Bedre magazine. The same house, but the interior and mood do seem rather different.
