(blog)pal joanna, author of one of our favourite blogs called a cup of jo and glamour magazine’s blog smitten, asked me last week if I might like to participate in her new series on smitten called “one thing that makes me smile”. She asked me to write a paragraph or so about something I do or like that makes my life happy.

Would you like to know what I said?

Well, click here to find out!! I’ll give you a clue: It has something to do with this photo above.

Thank you joanna!

PS a new behind the scenes up next!

I just felt like shouting that from the (blog)house rooftop.

Spring was only just emerging in the haute fagnes forest in belgium where french boy and i spent our very restful, computer-free weekend. We walked, talked, explored, sat in the forest, listened to the birds, caught some afternoon sun on the terrace (I’ve got colours), and slept. It was just what we needed – some time away from the city hum and crazy work commitments. We stumbled upon a castle, hidden deep inside the forest, and as we climbed the ancient stone stairs I imagined myself as a maiden, standing on the landing, hoping with all her heart to see her warrior lover come over the hill. I asked French Boy if he would come back for me and he said “without a doubt”. I said, “would you be missing a limb?” and he asked “would you still love me if I was?” and I said “without a doubt”.

A walk in a forest in spring is such wonderful medicine for the heart and soul…

my second (blog)video debut! sans bangs this time. 🙂
