Some closing words perhaps…

And now it’s time to say goodbye

To all our company…

Remember that? It’s all I keep thinking about on the end of this year. And what a wonderful year it has been. Sure there were some downs, but certainly one little up! always outweighs the rest. Next year will be just as great. Not just for me, but for you too. I haven’t looked in any crystal balls (lately) and probably don’t come close to any oracle but this is what I figure: no one is in charge of your happiness except you! Owww yes, there’s some wisdom left in me yet.

So next year be reckless, try new things, dye your hair red, dance whenever you feel like it. As long as it brings you joy. Because…Happy-newyear

Project “La cucina” over and out

The biggest step I made this year, maybe ever, was becoming a home owner. And when the boyfriend and I moved in our house seven months ago, it didn’t take long before we were wondering whatever possessed us to buy it in the first place. Granted, we knew there was a lot of work in it but we kept saying that the ‘click’ we felt the first time had to mean something. In the end, I think it was the potential we saw that convinced us. Especially when it came to the kitchen. The floor was a mess, the red walls made us dizzy just staring at them and the kitchen sink… Oh my bunny slippers! If I’ve ever seen a DIY kitchen gone bad, this one was the worst. I could only call it God’s grace that my ‘in-laws’ helped us every step of the way in turning this broke down shack into our home. I can tell, I’m getting emo just writing this (at my extremely large dining table). So I’ll just stop my sniffling so you can hurry over to the pictures.

The tutu that made us go tutu

We’ve been in love with these lovely fairylike skirts ever since ms. Carrie strolled the streets of NYC with hers. It was then when we were convinced that we needed to have a tutu too. Now it’s been a few years since we heard that little jingle from Sex and the city that had us drooling for that famous tutu, but we surely haven’t forgotten it. Though unspoken and never listed, we girls can not deny that a tutu skirt is one that belongs on the list of fashion essentials. Right under your own red-sole louboutins and Chanel’s little black jacket. Luckily, you can easily haul in a tutu skirt of your own without having to knock down a pretty little ballerina. There’s this Etsy shop- Fanfaronada- that delivers quality tutu skirts worthy enough for fashionistas like Carrie Bradshaw, Rihanna and yourself.

This is not a drill: Get christmas ready now!

Wake up, wake up people! Christmas day is just a few days away. How do we know? Due to the fairly awkward knit sweaters and the appearance of st. Nick around every corner. At casa de Zsasa the christmas spirit has been pouring in bit by bit. The tree has been put up and the first present has been placed with utter care. We’re slowly getting there and one can only hope that you are also well on your way to getting christmas ready. Well, are you?
